BIOGRAPHY
Born in Japan, but having moved to Sacramento, California as an infant, Ichi Go began to dance just as soon as she could walk. When she returned to Japan she maintained her interest in physicality and movement, studying modern dance from the age of 4 with tutors from the Fuji Mieko Modern Dance Company, with whom she performed from the age of 19 to 21. This intense, immersive tutelage and involvement with one of the most renowned Japanese modern dance companies gave her a steady foundation to construct her personal style. For several years in her mid-20s, she was forced to stop dancing professionally and pursue other means. Still, in 2013, feeling a renewed sense of passion, she decided to move to Berlin to focus once again on establishing her artistic practice as the centerpiece of her life. Since then, she has worked extensively as a dancer both in the EU and internationally. Ichi has worked for clients and directors including Sven Holm (Opera Director of NOVOFLOT, Berlin), Kadir Amigo Memis (Flying Steps Founder, Belin)and Jecko Siompo(Animal Pop Founder, Jakarta), Troels Primdahl (versatile director, choreographer, and producer ) Sean Rogg (Artistic director of The Waldorf Project, London), Yumiko Yoshioka (Butoh choreographer of TEN PEN CHii Art Labor, Berlin), Katarzyna Pastuszak (Amareya Theater & Guests, Gdansk), Daria Faïn(Director, Quigong and dance choreographer of The Commons Choir, NYC), Christine Bonansea (Christine Bonansea Company, NYC/Berlin), BMW (Rekorder GmbH, Mark Film for IAA-Internationale Automobil-Ausstellung 2017). She has established her own performance artist collective ELEKTRO KAGURA.
Her dance is characterized by the ability to develop a synchronization with her environment, an understanding that she gained from observing shrine maidens ritual practices in her youth. She believes the body should be a receptacle, receiving and offering, sharing something that dwells within all of us.

Throughout history and most recently during the Covid-19 pandemic, many Asian people have been victims of racist attacks in public spaces–as has the artist himself. For the performance video Isaac Chong Wai worked with Asian performers based in Berlin to practice solidarity through collective body movements. Falling Reversely, which is directed against institutional violence and assaults against Asian people, reverses the movements of falling. As if practising a ritual, the performers share the collective pain of violation and reclaim the autonomy of their own bodies.

Teaching, I love...
DOJO SACHIKO can be translated as WAY of Fortune. Experimental means are contemplative and meditative.
Integrating complex sensibilities into a simple deep breath.
I call it "結び-musubi". A place where we can feel the depths of the earth and the sky above us.
Each time we are confronted with diversity. Each time we meet, our own dance and music just happen naturally, without endless effort.
If you are interested in contacting me, please write to me and I can share further information and video material with you.
