Saori Ohnuma is a professional saxophonist and yoga instructor from Japan. When playing instruments, musicians are often unbalanced physically, and mentally. By translating balancing concepts to breath control and playing an instrument, Saori integrates the two worlds of Music and Yoga.

She is an avid educator for primary and secondary school students not only in Japan, but also throughout Eastern Asia. She has also performed in promotional videos and events with her performance group, and has instructed celebrities in commercials and other media outlets.

She is also an instructor for eurhythmics for children, and helps musicians fix their posture and breathing as a yoga instructor (Yoga Alliance RYT200).
