ATSHUSHI TAKENOUCHI
Biography
Atsushi Takenouchi joined Butoh dance company"Hoppo-Butoh-ha" in Hokkaido in 1980. His last performancewith the company "Takazashiki" (1984) was worked on byButoh-founderTatsumi Hijikata. He has been working on his own Jinen Butoh since 1986 andcreated solos "Tanagokoro", "Ginkan", "ltteki" as a universal expression of nature, earth and ancient times and his impression of themoment, formulated from the people around him, and the environment. Atsushi has danced at sights such as the Killing Fields in Cambodia, Kobe earthquake,Auschwitz-Birkenau, sacred temples around the world, thousands of year old trees, and desolate environments in Asia, Brazil , Eastern Europe.Atsushi has been touring Japan, Asia and Europe extensively in the lastdecades. Since 2002 he has taught wilderness dance workshops in the US , and collaborated with dancersand actors in Europe and the United States. He currently lives in Paris.
Dancing Life
"Dance is devotion of life." I learned this while mytraveling nature fields called JINEN. This means I should dance to "my life," to the moment, and to now which lasts forever. I feel we have forgottenmemories of days when we lived connected with nature's gift (such as water, wind, grass, trees, and animals). A long time ago we danced, forgetting day andnight. We forgot ourselves, and became just as one life with the earth? What about now? We've been choreographed to fit into given pattern.
Improvisation "It's a dance without choreography. You dance as you feel,sharpening your senses, with conviction. You can't improvise unless you can enjoy what you are doing and act alive. Sometimes we may looklike two dragons, or two jellyfish talking with each other, the moon and the sun, or two dancing cranes in love. We all have the blood of anative and spiritual dancer."

A message from Brandee Williams Lara: Perfect Tap Floor? Need Your Advice!
Greetings Tap Experts, Studio Owners, et al:HELP!
As you may know, I teach tap at wonderful, fabulous ChapmanUniversity in Orange, CA.
We have a fairly new dance building, with a room dedicatedto tap anddance forms not in need of a marly surface.When the building was brand new, the floor was workable. In my opinion, it was always too "fast." I noticed that dancers'postureschanged in order to compensate for the feeling of losing control.Increasingly, dancers have slipped and/or fallen, and, frankly, there are some things requiring quick weight or directional changes that we just don't do anymore. (Even one of the modern teachers,who sometimes uses the room, said he noticed the same posturalphenomenon.)
Last year, the floor got worse when the maintenence crew apparently resurfaced/waxed it when they went in to repair somedivots. They made it "all shiny and pretty" to be sure! Now, it is virtually an ice rinkin some places, and to make matters worse, it is uneven;that is,slower in some areas to really fast in others; makingsliding a"trip," if you know what I mean!! ;o)Well, our fantabulous department chair is always there toplease, andwants to know, once and for all, what I would tell to our facilities team to make it right. They will do pretty much anything,except replace it. (I believe the floor is maple, though I'm notpositive. Itis a properly "sprung floor," with an apparent cost of$10,000 when itwas installed)
So, experts: what would you advise??? What would you dowith this beautiful wood dance floor to make its surface right for tap??? Do youknow of a perfect finishing product??? Is there anything we should avoid???
THANK YOU very much for your advice!!
