-What do you think is the significance of physical expression in contemporary society?
Physical expression is the modern rhythm of a healthy person’s life.
-What do you want to convey to people through your physical expression?
When I dance on stage, it is important to convey to the audience the role you are playing, whether it is a romantic ballet or a tragic one.
-What do you think about lately?
I am happy to be in Japan.
