I am looking forward to meeting everyone! Shake hands with an octopus!!

Since February 2015, I have been running a balloon studio in Fuji City, Shizuoka Prefecture at the foot of Mt. Fuji. I have always loved balloons, and I was fascinated by a balloon dress created by Ms Hosogai. So I started knitting because I wanted my daughter to wear it as a wedding dress. The first time I participated in Twisters, was Hiroshima Tournament in 2008. Since then, I have been very excited to see so many talented lecturers at Twisters. I am very nervous that I will be teaching a balloon dress class this time. I hope that I will be able to share my passion for balloon dresses with everyone through the concept of ‘a balloon dress that makes a woman beautiful’.

I am a Japanese balloon artist. My mission is to deliver my audience the joy and smile through my balloon art works. I can create various shapes with balloons and the variation is over 700. I have been awarded a number of prises and have won many competitions. My strength lies in creating whatever is drawn or on any picture with balloons spontaneously. I have written a book called ‘Balloon Catcher’ which is published internationally.
