Nihon Buyo<\/span><\/p>\n

Nihon Buyo (Japanese traditional dance) was originated from Kabuki, which is a classical Japanese drama with about 400 years of history. In Japanese traditional dance, there are five major schools, including Nishikawa Ryu, Hanayagi Ryu, Bandou Ryu, Fujima Ryu, and Wakayagi Ryu.\u00a0 Through music, lyrics and motions, Japanese traditional dance depicts the seasons of Japan, human-nature relationships, romance and daily lives, etc.<\/p>\n

Chika Wakayagi<\/span><\/p>\n

Chika Wakayagi started practicing Japanese traditional dance at six. She has attained the Shihan Certificate of Wakayagi Ryu and has performed in the National Theatre in Tokyo and in Osaka.\u00a0 She was also the guest lecturer of Japanese traditional dance at the Chinese University of Hong Kong, the City University of Hong Kong, the Hong Kong Polytechnic University and the Open University of Hong Kong. Chika Wakayagi founded Wakayagi Ryu Konokai (Konokai), which is the only dance institute specialising in Japanese traditional dance of Wakayagi Ryu in Hong Kong. Konokai serves as a platform to enhance cultural exchange through artistic means between Japan and China.<\/p>\n
