Overview
Amber Liberté has been offered an incredible opportunity to train in Butoh (a dance-theatre form from Japan) under one of Japan's masters, Sensei Mushimara Fujieda, and his partner, Sensei Iyuko for an intensive one-month as an initiation into the dance-theatre form. Amber is going to be Sensei Mushimara's last ever student due to him getting too old to be able to teach.

Packed and ready!
I had so many beautiful people come through from Thursday - Tuesday to say goodbyes, have final coffees, and talk all things Japan. I have so much gratitude for the connections I have on the home Whenua, and the immense support I've had from all from professional to personal folks.
Tomorrow, in 12 hours, I leave on my flight for Japan for the foreseeable future. I know nobody there, I have no job to go too, and I have a whole lot of residencies, memories, and curiosities in the brain bank. It's risky, but I feel like it's the right move. For now. Ngā Mihi to all who've donated so far - we're already at 18% and it's only been 2 days!
