I tried the HARDEST Japanese Festival Dance | Awa-Odori

Maybe you guys know already that there are SO many festivals held in Japan all around the year - unfortunately because of the current situation many haven’t been held - but I still wanted to show you guys a little bit of festival life!

I was invited to join the Awa-Odori (a traditional Japanese festival dance) practice in Koenji in Tokyo, and also got to see them perform their brilliant dance live!
