Kaname Tomiyasu

Kaname Tomiyasu 15 years old. turned 11 on the 2nd of September 2018 - the same day as her Arangetram. Although born in Thailand, Kaname lived in New Delhi and studied at the New Delhi Japanese School till March 2018 - when she shifted back to Japan with her family. She has been learning Bharatanatyam in Delhi since the young age of 4 and came under the tutelage of Guru Saroja Vaidyanathan at the age of 8. Although initially attracted to the dance form due to the brilliant costumes, jewelries and makeup, she has over time begun to enjoy the dance as an embodiment of Indian culture - picking up Indian mythology, tradition and culture along the way. She considers herself lucky to have learnt from her Guru the virtues of courtesy and respect like the ancient Japanese“Budo”spirit.
