I believe that the life of the mind can (and should!) be pleasurable. How else could we live out our unique and sacred gifts in the world? Welcome to the world of Beautiful Scholarship.

Does your class, team, group want to experience a different way to learn? One that is embodied, beautiful, and connected to our collective liberation?

While I’ve been teaching and giving talks in a variety of settings over the past 15 years, I’m currently most excited to offer the following workshops/talks:

• “We Can Impose Beauty On Our Future”: A Visual Theory Mapping Workshop

• Embodied Study for Collective Liberation: Everyday Performances of Solidarity

Some of my previous clients:

Here’s what folks are saying:

“Beautiful Scholarship with Miyuki was delightful. As an academically trained scholar, it was relieving and also productively challenging to be invited into an embodied, relational, sensorially rich engagement with knowledge/creativity/scholarship. Grateful for this gift!” —Dr. Savannah Kilner, writer, editor, & organizer

“Visual Theory Mapping was very new for me and extraordinary! What a gift. Thank you!” 

“I felt inspiring energy, warmth, and sense of groundedness from Miyuki. I was transformed observing how Miyuki’s facilitation directly supported a group of strangers coming together to co-create a safe, welcoming, accessible, and uplifting space and observed community-building & collective healing take place on Zoom, which is not an easy format to do this in. I recommend working with Miyuki to anyone interested in community engagement, collaborative learning, and collective healing. Perhaps someone who has some initial ideas for programming but needs a skilled facilitator to bring in tools, activities, and processes for running an impactful workshop/experience.” —Linda Jia, Learning, Experience & Programs Developer at OMCA

“I got a much needed artistic session with Miyuki thinking about my own journey in a more creative way.”

“Miyuki! What a gem + love their visioning + liberation centered practices.”
