With the theme “Living innocently from moment to moment,” she explores improvisational butoh through body and consciousness.

Her performances emerge from minimal movement and stillness, gently inviting awareness of the “here and now.”

In 1999, she began studying under butoh dancer Masahide Omori.

Recipient of the New Artist Award from the 35th Annual Dance Critics Association of Japan.

She has performed internationally, produced Japan–Taiwan butoh exchange projects, and participated in festivals in Peru and Norway.

In 2026, she presented her solo performance “Tada Ima” at San Francisco Zen Center.
