BOLD(Ayumi)
Ayumi is one of Osaka Japan's premier dance instructors. Choreographer for the dance group "BOLD", she has become a Carnival:Choreographers' Ball favorite. As well as being in the winners' circle at the American Street Dance Championship II, she has performed and competed in numerous venues and events in Japan and the US. Her innovative Nouveau Japonesque dance style combines traditional Japanese Dance and theatrical elements from Kabuki, BonOdori, Kendo, and Karate with Popping, Locking, and New School Hip Hop Flavor, bringing Hip Hop around full circle as an international, universal culture. Although Hip Hop at its base, the music that she chooses is highly influenced by traditional Japanese music, including Taiko, Shakuhachi, Shamisen, and Koto, as well as modern pop-culture elements such as Kung-Fu Movies dubs. Because music like this is hard to find, most of Ayumi's tracks are original productions or remixed from a variety of tacks, such as Old&New school Hip Hop, Soul-R&B, House, 2Step/UK Garage, Movie Sound Tracks, and Traditional Instrumentation.
She works as a choreographer to Asian diva "BoA" and popular idol group "V6" recently.
