~ Nurturing the balance of mind, body and spirit ~

G.I.C. is a non profit organization putting human values and positive communication skills into practice through programs that build healthy minds, bodies, and spirits.
Our activities contribute to the Southern Kanagawa Community, the aim being to balance Japanese lifestyle
with multi-cultural awareness.
GIC is a friendly community of people who participate in our center’s contest of the body, mind, and spirit, committing themselves not so much to "stronger, faster, higher" as to deeper, richer, more enduring.
Children and adults alike will come to rediscover the miracle of self-aware consciousness. They will come for a new community, and at best, they will come away inspired by the precision of a desire to learn and keep on learning through all of life, and beyond.
We realize our dreams through educational programs, community services and fundraising programs.
