Yogi tattoo

Yogi tattoo is a female-artist-led tattoo studio in Nagoya, Japan, founded in November 2011. The studio is run entirely by a woman tattooer, offering clients a sense of comfort and careful attention that comes from an understanding of women's bodies and design sensibilities, while also welcoming male clients. First-time visitors are given a relaxed, judgment-free environment, with an emphasis on counseling and building trust before any tattoo work begins. The studio describes tattooing as a healing practice carried out with care for each client's individual needs.

The studio's tattoo artist, known as ta-co, has eighteen years of experience and has tattooed roughly ten thousand clients. Her training took her through Harajuku in Tokyo, Nagoya, Los Angeles, and Oslo, with additional experience running a studio in India. Beyond tattooing, Yogi tattoo also offers yoga instruction and healing sessions, including Reiki, and hosts a recurring new-moon mandala art and yoga workshop. This blend of tattoo artistry with yoga and healing practices reflects the studio's holistic approach, and it reports that its clients return as repeat visitors.
