Reposting because I accidentally deleted the original post….

Carpathyo is a new form of immersive performance combining an original method based on Zen meditation and breathwork with pole dance and body movement. Through movement, stillness and meditation, the performer and audience journey together into their inner worlds.

In Carpathyo, sound and silence are equally important. Silent meditation is an essential part of the practice, while sound — from music and voice to noise and natural ambience — can also guide us inward.

For this Edinburgh Fringe version, I was very intentional about the music selection. The performance opens with Sheena Ringo, while much of the rest of the soundscape draws from Japanese artists and tracks from the 1990s, including YMO, Nobukazu Takemura and TOWA TEI.

The music is not just background. It is part of the structure, atmosphere and emotional journey of the performance.

Come and experience the world of Carpathyo with me. ✨

For years, I couldn’t bring myself to post here.
Not because nothing was happening.
Because everything was happening.
In 2020, almost all of my work disappeared during the pandemic. That same year, my sister passed away unexpectedly.
Around the same time, my long-distance relationship ended as my partner’s depression became more severe. I closed my old Instagram account and cut myself off from almost everyone.
I honestly thought I would lose myself completely.
So I studied.
I explored movement, meditation, breath, and the mind. During the years when I was away from performing, I also continued movement work through remote Dance Movement Psychotherapy with a UK-based therapist.
This became the beginning of Carpathyo.
In 2023, I left Japan for graduate school abroad. During that journey, I visited Edinburgh and made a quiet promise to myself:
One day, I will perform at the Edinburgh Fringe.
After graduating, I had to return to Japan unexpectedly. Then, at the end of 2024, my mother suddenly passed away.
I stopped posting again.
In 2025, I returned to dance. But everything had changed. Many of the people I had once worked with were no longer there. It felt like I had entered a different timeline.
Then I got injured.
But I couldn’t let go of the dream that began in Edinburgh.
So this spring, I stopped waiting for the perfect moment and decided to make it happen.
Once I committed and started moving, everything began to move with me.
And now, I’m here.
My life is still far from perfect.
But I’m no longer the person I used to be.
I’ve found my way back to dance.
And maybe, back to myself.
Don’t give up.
You don’t need to see the whole path.
Just take the next step.
Sometimes, that is enough.

Welcome to Carpathyo.

The Book of Carpathyo – Volume 6: Theory

Planned release: July 2026.

————————————

About a year ago, I published a small book of poems as an introduction to Carpathyo.

Since then, life had its own plans.

There were journeys, unexpected turns, challenges, discoveries, and long periods where writing simply would not come.

The next book remained unwritten, not because the ideas were absent, but because life was still revealing them.

Now, I am finally ready to share the next chapter.

———————————

About the Book: What Is Carpathyo?

———————————

Carpathyo is not only a methodology.

It is a way of life.

This book explores the underlying structure of reality and how the worlds we experience are formed.

By understanding that structure, we can begin to consciously participate in creating our own lives.

Life is art.
Life is beautiful.
The world is yours.

And perhaps most importantly:

This world has not abandoned you.

📘 I published my first book.
📘 初めての本を出版しました。

👇🏻
ENGLISH / 英語

It’s been a while since I last posted here.
But silence was part of the process.

In that silence, something quietly took form.
Not just a book—
but a system.
A frequency.
A language for what trembles beneath the surface.

📘 The Book of Carpathyo – Volume 3: Prophecies
is now in this world.

📕 Now available on Amazon, worldwide—
in both Kindle (eBook) and Paperback formats:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F1GW33TC
👀Please note: This book is written entirely in English.

Not a memoir.
Not a manual.
But a poetic framework for emotional and energetic states
we often feel, but rarely name:

The Drag.
The Lag.
The Coil.
The Wall.

These are the moments just before transformation—
invisible, emotional, and real.

Drawn from Zen practice,
subconscious resonance,
and the unspoken waves between beings.

Carpathyo is a system I created for perceiving, naming, and transforming inner states.

This is Volume 3 of a 3–6–9 series:
Prophecies. Theory. Method.
(Volume 6 and 9 are already writing themselves.)

📕 Now available worldwide on Amazon:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F1GW33TC


🪶 This is just the beginning.

🌀 久しぶりの投稿になります。 
この静けさにも意味があり、
その間に、静かに何かがかたちになっていきました。 
ただの本ではなく、 
ひとつのシステム。 
ひとつの周波数。 
目に見えない揺らぎに触れる、新しい言語です。 

私の本が出版されました。 
📘 The Book of Carpathyo – Volume 3: Prophecies 
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F1GW33TC 

これは回想録でも、実用書でもありません。
私たちの外側の世界が変わるその前に、
静かに内側で起きている変化を、詩のかたちで描いた書です。

The Drag(引きずり) 
The Lag(遅れ) 
The Coil(うねり) 
The Wall(壁) 

——変容の直前に訪れる、目に見えない感覚たち。 
Zenの実践、
潜在意識の共鳴、 
そして存在と存在のあいだに漂うものから生まれました。 

Carpathyo(カルパスィオ)は、私が創った「内的体験から変容を起こすためのシステム」です。 

これは「3・6・9」シリーズの第3巻。 
Volume 3: The Prophecies(予言) 
Volume 6: Theory(理論) 
Volume 9: Method(実践) 
——次の巻も、すでに書き始めています。

The brighter the light, the darker the shadow.

The darkness you see is a reflection of your inner world.

But remember, the light also resides within you.

Everyone wishes for miracles to happen.

But miracles arise from beyond what we can imagine.

In the mindfulness of this moment,

we often think there are no miracles.

Yet, every this single moment is a miracle in itself.

I sometimes feel supported and driven by something we can't see.

My last visit in Boston.

I stayed near ‘Wonderland’, which really resembles the place I had imagined before.
It was the kind of place where 'Calling You' from the film Baghdad Café fits perfectly.
It was a meditative place and really relaxing. 

There was a 'Shirley' Street, the name of a friend who really helped me during my stay in the UK.

I felt that this journey was over and I was starting a new one.

I got food poisoning from an old egg after arriving in Japan. 
I felt everything had been cleansed.

Thank you, David and Eri. by @33theexplorer
