Business Overview

It has been five years since the graduation performance "Wadachi.".
As we went through our lives, there was always Japanese dance in our paths. Now, these paths overlap again, and we walk together
As the first performance, we perform classical dance which is our foundation, and creative works which search for expression which is not bound by the form in two parts.
