Cat “Interrupts” Yoga Class — And Becomes an Internet Star

At a small yoga studio in Tokyo, instructor Mai Sato hosts peaceful sunrise classes — usually.

One morning, as participants entered a meditative stretch, a surprise guest arrived: Momo, Mai’s curious tabby cat.

Momo strolled between yoga mats, rubbed against students, and finally claimed center stage — flopping dramatically onto the instructor’s mat mid-flow.

Instead of removing Momo, Mai embraced the moment:

“She brings joy — and sometimes steals the show!”

A student captured the scene: a room full of calm yogis smiling as Momo posed like a sphinx, interrupting the session with her purrs.

The video went viral:

“New yoga instructor: certified cuteness.”
“Best yoga class ever.”

Since then, Momo has become the studio’s unofficial mascot. Classes now come with a disclaimer: “Cat-assisted mindfulness included.”

At AmazedInk, we celebrate these joyful moments — because sometimes the best life lessons (and laughs) come from our furry friends.
