ELEMENTS

Two performances by Azul Dance Theatre/ Yuki Hasegawa will be presented in February 2nd and 3rd, 2013 at Salvatore Capezio Theatre at Peridance Center, a minute from the Union Square in the New York City. The dance works are created by 4 Asian female choreographers: Yuki Hasegawa (artistic director,) Hsiao-Ting Hsieh & Hsiao-Wei Hsieh, and Kanako Yokota.

In Yuki's premiere work, "ELEMENTS," she expresses the energy flow of the body, emotions, and Asian philosophy through the dancers' movements based on the theme: the relationship between the human nature and four elements, such as Water, Wind, Soil, and Fire.

Yuki also synthesized dance improvisation and Sword fighting to create her cultural influenced work, "Mugen," utilizing the Japanese traditional props, such as, Fans, Umbrellas, and Swords.
