YogaJaya was founded by Patrick Oancia in 2004. The name YogaJaya (union vanquishes) expresses the way that yoga can help us to overcome and then move beyond the limiting factors in our lives.

The YogaJaya studio is located in the stylish Ebisu-Nishi area of central Tokyo. The Daikanyama and Ebisu areas are known for funky cafes, bars, restaurants, fashion boutiques, atelliers, and music and art culture. The studio is located just minutes away from Daikanyama and Ebisu stations.

The studio is located on the second floor of the Jamgle Jam Building, owned by fashion brand, Roial. Roial’s flagship shop, the “Far East” clothing boutique, is located on the first floor.
