Photo by Yoko Essel &Robert Essel. Yukari is one Photo by Yoko Essel &Robert Essel. 
Yukari is one of the best kimono dressers with excellent special skills in NYC!  JPA had a video shooting session last Sunday and she dressed about ten non-ordinary kinds of kimono (dragging bottom type) alone! There are many details to properly dress kimono costumes and they can only be acquired through lots of experiences. Kimono Dressers need to know the characters of each particular kimono and how each one fits to the person dressing up.
On top of that, our dynamic dance choreography in kimono causes disintegration of the originally fitted shape, so we need the right skilled person for the dancers to keep the kimono beautiful for a long time, and from time to time the fitting requires adjustments.
Yukari did a great job! We could dance without hesitation to fully move around. 
Yukari is an extraordinary hair designer as well.
水内ゆかりさんはNYCの中でも技術のある着付け師の1人です。JPAが行った日曜日のビデオ撮影の時、約10枚分のお引き摺りの着物を1人で着つけていただきました。着付けには着物を着せるための沢山の知識と経験が必要です。それぞれの着物が持つ特徴を知って、着物を着る人にフィットするように着付けをします。
我々の踊りの振付がダイナミックなので、着崩れる事がありますが、技術によって気崩れせず長く美しいラインを保たせる事ができます。 水内さんの着付けによって、安心して踊る事ができました!有難うございます!
水内さんはヘアーデザイナーとしても活躍されています。

We are pleased to announce our theater production We are pleased to announce our theater production "JPA Cultural Repertoires 2017," which is the second production counting from the first one in 2015.
In 2015, we performed in front of a full house. Thanks to our amazing patrons.
This year's show is a bigger production than anything that's come before it.
Our show consists of three distinct categories; the kimono show, the Nihon Buyo (one of the traditional Japanese dances), and folk performing arts from three different regions in Japan.
Especially this time, we are inviting professional Bunraku puppeteers from Osaka. This is the first time in about 25 years since the last time Bunraku puppeteers came to perform in NYC. Bunraku is listed as one of UNESCO World Intangible Cultural Heritage (2003). Each performance will have a corresponding set of videos and images that will be displayed on stage with our MCs to explain its details.
The opportunity of seeing all these performances live in one production is a rare opportunity in not only NY but in Japan as well. You do not want to miss this special opportunity, and we'd love to see you there. Come on over to the Peter Norton Symphony Space!
AGES OF ENCHANTMENT : JPA Cultural Repertoires 2017
