Weekday Co-Work Session!! 9:00-18:00 (joining in middle ok, please read notes)

ULTRA PRODUCTIVE FULL DAY SESSION!

If you are late or will join in the middle, please note we will only be able to come to get you from downstairs during break times.

Basic Schedule:

• 9:00: Meet up, get settled
• 9:15-18:00: Repeated Focus Cycles*
• Short “energise” breaks - go out to the roof terrace, enjoy the spectacular view, have a stretch in the sunshine (weather permitting), chat to fellow participants etc.

*Focus cycles of 25/5 or 50/10min depending on participant preference, and we allow time for stretches up on the roof terrace to refresh and re-energise, and a brief lunch.

The session will end no later than 18:15

A Daily Yamazaki combini is nearby and the supermarket opens at 10am.

ABOUT US

Focusmates is a study/co-working focus group in Tokyo for people who find the “body doubling” focus method effective or want/need a healthy dose of accountability for working towards any “professional” study/work goals!

Our group isn’t limited to just study! There’s members focused on co-working, coding, app dev, startup business plans, VC grant writing, and more!

Anyone studying or working towards a professional improvement goal and needing serious study buddies to help stay focused, accountable, on-task, and on-track is most welcome!

Please note, this group is aimed at unlocking serious focus and productivity, to help you get sh*t done. Taking opportunities before/after and in breaks to network, discuss ideas etc is 100% encouraged, and a nice side-benefit of our in-person format. But session schedules are carefully set to ensure plenty of focused work/study gets done during every session.

We meet regularly in Ariake on Weekdays and some Saturdays. Occasional “Study & Sweat” or “Study & Nomikai” sessions are also scheduled, so keep an eye out for extra session announcements.

Lastly, we’re very lucky to have a light-filled space with a fantastic view over all of Tokyo Bay and the Rainbow Bridge while we study. And if weather is nice and participants are keen, there’s also an outdoor terrace we can sit at instead of being indoors!
