I’ve featured this fellow from Maicho-ren before… his intense expression and powerful dance make it impossible not to!
Although well out of season, I plan to begin sharing Awaodori pieces again as a means to keep myself motivated to push on towards exhibiting as well as towards the fitness required for the coming season.

For me no Koenji Awaodori is complete without seeing friends from Hyottoko-ren! I wish I could have caught them in better light this year, but their performance and spirit carry any shot their featured in.

Despite the rains of the 59th Koenji Awaodori, the performances were radiant.

As I slowly pour through the massive collection of shots I gathered at the 59th Koenji Awaodori, I remain still in amazement at the harmony, spirit, and strength on display. Matsuri themselves reflect many great characteristics of people, our ability to achieve results as a group, our ability to express subtle nuances in our art, and the beauty of those captured by the roaring fires of their passion.

Another team I am looking forward to seeing at the Koenji Awaodori is Edokko-ren. Their dance tells a unique story that highlights the roles women and men play in the “fool’s dance” which highlights the foolish nature of both.

The Koenji Awaodori begins this Saturday and I couldn’t be happier knowing I’ll be shooting it for the third year in a row.
Featured here is Hyottoko-ren, if you get the chance look for them at the festival:
