Welcome to The Yard

Thanks so much for taking the time to read all about The Yard and our plans to bring this magical space to life in the heart of Kutchan. 

As many of you know Powder Yoga became homeless this year and through our search for a new home the idea was sparked for The Yard. Our aim is to bring you all the yoga and fitness that you know love… but also much much more!

The Yard is first and foremost a recreation space, a multipurpose home designed to enable different ideas and concepts to come to life. We wanted to create a space for Niseko locals that spoke to all the things we hold dear, our health and wellness, our jobs and businesses and our free time. The yard is a well-rounded space where you can work hard, play hard and rest hard too. 

We will open in November 2021 offering yoga + fitness classes provided by Powder yoga, a cold-press juice bar + cafe, a co-working area, a private treatment room for massages, physiotherapy and life + health coaching consultations. And last but not least, an indoor skate area with mini ramp and features.  

We want to bring our community together to enjoy everything that The Yard has to offer. No matter your interests this space will have something for you. Healthy food and drinks, skate sessions, yoga, breathwork + fitness classes, community events + workshops, book clubs, language swaps, ‘Dirty Squeeze’ cocktail parties, live music, gallery space and so much more. To top it all off we wanted to make sure that our furry friends in Niseko had somewhere to hang out too, so we have a dedicated pet friendly area as part of our co-working space, cafe and juice bar.

We can’t wait to welcome you into our new home.

What We Need & What You Get

To get up and running we are inviting you to be a part of our launch. We would never ask for anything for free, so all of our crowdfunding perks translate into real life products and services for you to enjoy once we are open. For your peace of mind, if we can’t deliver on a service once open you will receive a full refund for anything contributed to the campaign.

We are looking to raise 1,000,000 yen to help purchase start up equipment such as juicers and coffee machines and get the renovation completed for every area of our plan. At the moment we are working with. blank canvas space, so there is a lot of work to be done. If you’d like to be a part of this with us, you can see the details of all our campaign perks below, choose the perk that works for you and help us build The Yard together.

Your contributions will enable us to bring this magical space to life. It’s been a rough few seasons for Niseko locals, and many of us are still struggling with keeping our businesses a float. Finding a way to work together as a community to help us to grow and succeed collectively is one of our founding principles. If your business would like to be involved with us at The Yard, we would love to hear from you to discuss partnership opportunities. We are open to partnership opportunities from local food and drinks providers, bakers, artists, treatment providers and products creators.    

Other Ways You Can Help

We know that being able to contribute financially won’t be possible for everyone, so if you would like to support us in any other way by donating skills or time in exchange for our perks we would love to hear from you. We are looking for people to help with many different areas of the project so please send us an email to get involved… hello@theyardniseko.com
