The performing arts of Okinawa have evolved over nearly six hundred years of history, beginning in the “Golden Age” of the Ryukyu Kingdom in the 1300s. These arts have survived through the turbulence of wars and across oceans in different cultures as Okinawans emigrated around the world. In Hawaii, Cheryl Yoshie Nakasone, Artistic Director of Jimpu Kai, has created new dances for today’s audiences. Each program will vary slightly and may include classical dances, new choreography; traditional folk dances; original choreography set to contemporary folk music; live performance of music using the sanshin; and or a short demonstration of kumiwudui, the classical dance-drama unique to Okinawa. At the end of the program, the audience can participate in atchame the improvisational dance form that goes with the lively kachashi music heard at every Okinawan party or gathering.

Cheryl Yoshie Nakasone started training and performing in Honolulu at an early age. After graduating from the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa, she continued her studies in Okinawa under the tutelage of Ryosho Kin, a designated National Living Treasure of Japan. She is the first foreigner to pass all three levels of the “konkuru,” the proficiency dance examinations, and she received her master’s certification from Kin-sensei in 1976. She is Artistic Director of Jimpu Kai USA, Kin Ryosho Ryukyu Geino Kenkyusho, Hawai‘i Shibu
