Since the earliest days of street culture in Japan, SAWADA has been committed to perfect the unique physical expressions of hip-hop dance. He is an endless innovator, yet his style never strays from its core. This same style enables him to impress his unmistakable perspective on life upon the pieces he performs. SAWADA was quick to incorporate “illuminated dance” using EL wire technology into his performances, and his self-designed, highly original costumes are acclaimed across Japan and beyond. SAWADA is also a talented theatre actor, specialising in comedy. He uses his formidable expressive range, refined through dance, to capture the hearts of the audience by whatever means necessary. To date, he has appeared in productions in over twenty countries worldwide.
