East Meets West: Koharu Sugawara

Since she was young, Koharu Sugawara has been on a mission to be the world’s best dancer. While on a trip to America, she discovered freedom in her dance, a characteristic she'd not been able to express before. Taking that freedom back to Japan, she continued to develop and hone an unmistakable dance style of her own.
