Hideaki Oka : Leader of Japan’s largest Awa Dance team, “Gojahei”
娯茶平(ごじゃへい)七代目連長 岡秀昭さん。日本最大の阿波踊りのチームになります。
The Awa Dance is more work than play.
Practicing is hard, it’s demanding.
But I can’t stop loving the dance.
“Why do you like it?” That’s the difficult question.
I’ve been doing the dance for 50 years. But I can’t tell why I’ve been doing it.
People are excited. They clap a lot for me.
They keep coming back. They shake my hand.
Sense of accomplishment. It makes me happy.
