Welcome Tip for December 2007 / January 2008 The Holiday season is in full swing by the first of December, if you are new to the area, you may be wondering where to shop for those all important gifts. If you are looking for traditional Japanese gifts, a beautiful food basket or some clothing in western sizes; head straight over to Isetan Department store in Shinjuku: www.isetan.co.jp/iclub, where you can sign up for their IClub and receive personalized shopping assistance in English. After your day of shopping you can walk over the to Takeshimaya building where there are beautiful holiday lights displayed, as well as the flagship Krispy Kreme store in Japan (beware though, the lines are still 1 1/2 hours long to get doughnuts). In January, when the holiday festivities have ended, don't let the cooling tempuratures keep you inside. If you are looking to keep the ever popular New Year's resolution of self improvement, there is no better place to start that with Yoga. Two very popular studios with English speaking instructors are: Furla Yoga, www.furla.co.jp/yoga and Shizen Yoga, www.shizenyoga.com , both website have class information and schedules. They both have excellant instructors that will help you to reach your personal goals of self improment, whether it's inside or out! What better way to start the new year?
