About the Host:

Miho Hatanaka, RDN

Miho was born and raised in Tokyo, Japan. With family in both Tokyo and Osaka, Miho observed the different cultures and traditions kept within Japan.

When she moved to the United States in 2004, the biggest culture shock she experienced was the food.

In Japan, food is approached with deep attention — not just for nourishment, but as a shared, communal practice for health and wellbeing. This inspired her to pursue a career as a Registered Dietitian to improve the health and wellbeing of others.

While living in the U.S., she continued practicing Japanese traditions — playing shamisen (a traditional Japanese string instrument), taiko (traditional Japanese drumming), nagauta singing, and dance. She also practiced Aikido, a Japanese martial art, for seven years.

Before opening House Nine in 2019, she told Sarah (co-owner) that her dream was to host a wellness retreat in Japan. After six years of dreaming, she will be leading the Japan Wellness Retreat in November 2026.
