Chiami moves black ink across white.
At the Sip of Japan, gold appears against black. The colors change, but the scale, focus, and full body movement remain unmistakably hers 🖤✨

Can you learn Awa Odori in 30 seconds? 🇯🇵

Relax your knees, open your stance, and follow the rhythm:

One, two. Right, left. Hands and feet together!

Then comes the best part:

“YATTOSA!”
“A, YATTO YATTO!” 👏

Born in Tokushima and danced for over 400 years, Awa Odori isn’t about getting every step perfect. It’s about joining in and having fun.

Save this mini tutorial and try it with us at the next festival!

Ever wonder why yakitori comes on a stick? 🍢

“Three years to learn skewering.
A lifetime to master grilling.”
That little stick? It’s part of the craft ✨

What’s the first skewer you order at a yakitori restaurant?

Awa Odori isn’t a dance you simply watch🏮

With more than 400 years of history, this joyful tradition was born in Tokushima. Once known as Awa Province.

And its famous call says it best:

“The dancers are fools.
The watchers are fools.
If we’re all fools anyway,
you might as well dance.”

So, what would you do? Watch or join in?
