Naoki Kojima, a true modern samurai of Japan, is embarking on his international journey as the Director and Senior Instructor of the Nishino Breathing Method in Goslar, Germany.
It is my great pleasure to announce the launch of the official website and the opening of the school for the Nishino Breathing Method in Goslar. This school will be led by Naoki Kojima, a Certified Senior Instructor.
Over the past year, Mr. Kojima has worked intensively to promote this unique Japanese breathing technique, developed by our founder, Kōzō Nishino, beyond the borders of Oita in Kyushu, Japan. He has now moved to Goslar, Germany, where he continues his international mission, combining his expertise with his professional experience in international business.
As the Director and Chief Head Coach of the Nishino Method Headquarters, I have had the privilege of observing Mr. Kojima’s unwavering dedication and passion for mastering this method over the past 32 years. His continuous efforts to refine his breathing techniques set him apart and inspire both students and colleagues.
Mr. Kojima can rightfully be called a modern samurai. In ancient Japan, samurai followed Bushido, a moral code that emphasized values such as martial arts, loyalty, honor, respect, courage, and integrity. Mr. Kojima embodies these virtues, tirelessly striving to perfect both his skills and character. His intellectual sharpness, respect for traditions, and loyalty to our practice make him an outstanding individual. In addition to his experience as a successful international businessman and leader, he will contribute significantly to the growth of our certified organizations.
Since the opening of our new headquarters in 2022, we have made great strides in spreading the legacy of the Nishino Breathing Method worldwide. While taking innovative steps, we remain firmly rooted in the core principles of the method, which began over 40 years ago with Kōzō Nishino and his early students. Today, we offer specialized courses at the headquarters that focus on the fundamentals of breathing, attracting a steadily growing number of participants, both former students from the previous headquarters and new enthusiasts, from Japan and abroad. Mr. Kojima has played a key role in implementing these new initiatives and advancing them with great skill.
I am confident that Mr. Kojima will continue to play a central role in the global dissemination of the Nishino Breathing Method. I strongly believe that Goslar will make an important hub in northern Germany, where more and more people will experience the transformative power of this method and enrich their lives. Under Mr. Kojima’s leadership, I look forward to the growth and success of Nishino Germany-Goslar.
