Yanomi was a member of the Ryuzanji Company, a performance troupe which has created a wide variety of theater works that have been performed in Japan as well as in such countries as Canada, Russia, Iran, Europe, and many other Asian countries.
She utilized her vast theater experience and formed Shoshinz, with her theater partner Kuronatsu, and together they started out at a small bar in Tokyo. She has studied classic and contemporary dance, tap dance, classic music (opera singing) as well to develop her skill to express her own unique fantasy world.
Yanomi has a strong desire to cross over genres, and has therefore created a truly unique show which has a fearless mix of bizarre antics. She performed with her partner tirelessly at bars, live music venues, club events, parties, schools, theaters, and also on the street. After four-and-ahalf years, she had embarked on a solo career.
Regardless of age or gender or nationality, audience members are always pleasantly surprised and delighted when they watch Yanomi's show. And most people come away from it unable to find the words to describe exactly what they have seen!
