The Body Sense Institute has been organizing community-based workshops for expectant and new parents across different Japanese prefectures.

In July 2026, the institute held a free, parent-led workshop in Izumi City, Osaka, focusing on nutrition, self-care exercises, and baby-holding techniques. The session included lectures on balanced meals and practical yoga for pelvic floor health.

Following this, a new initiative was announced for September 2026 in Kurobe City, Toyama Prefecture. In collaboration with IKUJI Mama Hot Station, this upcoming program aims to address social issues like isolated parenting and postpartum depression by connecting families with local support networks and specialized instructors.
