Yokohama Bashamichi | Personal Gym Run by a Licensed Physical Therapist
A private, appointment-only personal gym
in Bashamichi, Yokohama, run by a licensed physical therapist.
We combine training with hands-on body care,
tailored to each client's goals
and physical condition.
Problem
You want to start exercising but don't know where to begin. Aches and discomfort keep coming back. Your training isn't delivering the results you expected — many people come to us with concerns like these.
At ZEN PRIVATE GYM, we start by assessing your body to identify the cause of your discomfort or plateau, then build only the exercise and care you actually need.
ZEN PRIVATE GYM combines physical assessment by a licensed physical therapist with coaching by an experienced personal trainer.
We evaluate your posture, movement, joint mobility, strength, and flexibility, then propose training and body care that fit your goals.
Rather than putting everyone through the same routine, we check how your body is doing that day and adjust each session accordingly.
Message
ZEN PRIVATE GYM is not just a place to work out. It is a private, appointment-only gym where one expert — both a licensed physical therapist and a personal trainer — provides training and body care tailored to each client's goals and physical condition.
Our founder has been active since the early 2000s, before personal training became mainstream, building experience as both a personal trainer and a physical therapist across medical, sports, and fitness settings.
Changing your body is about more than appearance or strength. It means less anxiety about pain. Learning to trust your own body again. Being able to take on the things you want to do.
The result of these accumulated changes: clients who have kept coming back for nearly nine years, since we first opened. For those who value substance, we deliver sessions you can truly be satisfied with.
Services
We design a dedicated training program around your physical condition, exercise history, and goals. Beginners are welcome — we carefully teach everything from form to how to use your body.

Why ZEN PRIVATE GYM
Drawing on the knowledge and experience of a licensed physical therapist, we comprehensively assess your posture, movement, flexibility, and strength. Everything starts with an accurate picture of where your body is now.
Stiff shoulders, back pain, poor posture — physical discomfort always has a cause. We look beyond surface symptoms to identify and address what is really behind them.
Every body, every goal, and every lifestyle is different. We build a program just for you and provide support you can sustain without strain.
Backed by the expertise of a nationally licensed physical therapist, our training balances safety and effectiveness. Even those new to exercise or anxious about their body can train with confidence.
Building strength matters — but so does restoring balance. By combining training with stretching and conditioning, we aim for a body that moves well and tires less.
We want to be more than a place to train — a place that makes life richer. Let the changes in your body become the start of a better future.

My goal is to help you reduce anxiety about pain and discomfort, and build a body that lets you live your daily life on your own terms.
Voices
“I've been coming here for almost nine years, since it first opened. My stiff shoulders and back pain used to be so bad that massage and chiropractic treatments only lasted about a week. Since I started weight training here, they have improved remarkably.”
Makoto Shingo
“I first came because the gym was founded by a nationally licensed physical therapist. The care didn't hurt at all and I could relax — and I later realized it was designed with how my body would feel the next day in mind. A true professional really is different. I've found a place I can trust.”
M.M.
“I visited the gym opened by a nationally licensed trainer I've trusted for about seven years. The interior is beautiful, and the coaching was attentive and detailed. Highly recommended for anyone serious about results!”
M.S.
“A calm space where you can focus without worrying about others, with warm wood tones and aroma. The equipment is versatile too — Redcord, balance balls, and other tools for training your deep stabilizing muscles.”
T.E.
“I've been training here for about three years. My programs take into account my body's characteristics, lifestyle, and even how I feel that day. Above all, the trainer's sincere, dedicated character is the biggest reason someone like me, with no training experience, has been able to keep going.”
T.I.
“I wholeheartedly recommend him as a private coach. The gym is excellently equipped, and having the training space all to yourself is a real advantage. What stands out most is his background as a physical therapist — and his kindness.”
C.
“I started personal training because I was concerned about my HbA1c. With a trainer who is both a former professional boxer and a physical therapist, I feel completely at ease!”
B.K.
“Top-level skill and knowledge, of course — but what really comes through is how seriously he engages with you. A truly impressive private gym!”
