Born and raised in Japan, Chinatsu Kambayashi is the founder of Studio Early Birds, a creative wellness studio exploring the relationship between inner well-being and the spaces we inhabit.

Before founding Studio Early Birds, she spent nearly two decades as an internationally recognized interior stylist, commercial interior designer, creative director, and magazine editor. Her work included retail environments, hospitality, editorial projects, and brand experiences, always guided by a belief that thoughtfully designed spaces have the power to influence how people feel.

Her path eventually expanded beyond designing physical environments.

Following a life-changing health journey, Chinatsu deepened her studies in yoga, meditation, breathwork, and sound healing. She discovered that the same intention used to create beautiful spaces could also be applied to cultivating inner peace, resilience, and balance.

Today, her work brings together both worlds.

Through weekly yoga classes, private mentoring, retreats, sound healing experiences, wellness consulting, and creative direction, she helps people reconnect with themselves while creating lives that feel grounded, intentional, and deeply nourishing.

Her teaching combines intelligent alignment, breath-centered movement, mindful sequencing, and self-inquiry, while honoring yoga’s traditional roots in a way that supports modern life.

She continues to study with respected teachers including Joan Hyman, Annie Carpenter, Lisa Walford, and Marla Apt, and believes that teaching begins with remaining a lifelong student.

At the heart of every offering is one simple philosophy:

Beautiful Living Begins Within.
