37. Ayumi (BODY CARNIVAL)
Listen now
Description
Today we talk with my old friend Ayumi from the Kyoto crew Body Carnival, who also happens to be one of the best bgirls in the world.  It was a real honour to be able to talk with her about some of her history and share her thoughts.  Even though Ayumi’s English is pretty good she wanted to do the interview in Japanese to be able to express herself as naturally as possible so I once again brought in the help of Makoon, the translator extraordinaire who also happens to be one of Ayumi’s best friends.  We got to talk about her history, Kyoto’s breaking history, why her crew has become internationally known even though Kyoto is a relatively small scene, judging Red Bull BC One, the Olympics and more.  Real pleasure to talk with these two since we all go back around a decade when we all lived in Vancouver.  Hope you enjoy the chat.  Peace!
