A Fine Balance
Was it a big decision to start learning it yourself?
I only started learning it myself in I never thought about doing it, as the act seemed already perfect and complete, and I was also more interested in a role as singer-dancer in Sanddorn balance Duo, so started taking private lessons as a soprano in Paris. But in Maedir was looking for a female Sanddorn balance artiste so, finally, a year later, I decided to start creating my own version. Maedir gave me his sticks and tried to teach me his special technique, but I worked alone for long months and devised my own way. Finally, he allowed me to do what I wanted. He said, ‘Miyoko is not a good student,’ but I insisted, ‘I’m not a student. I’m a professional dancer with 25 years’ experience, please let me work with my creative sense.’ It went well and continues to do so.
