Through our performance we sincerely hope you can enjoy a “taste of Okinawa “, and we strive to that end.

Logo Mark
Hyajaigumun Shoryu (counterclockwise spinning ascending dragon)
琉球舞団 昇龍祭太鼓

Hyajaigumun is the symbol of the old prospered Okinawa Kingdom and shows the determination to succeed their traditional cultures and spirits to our time. A dragon was the symbol of a king in old Okinawa (Ryukyu) and its picture to energetically move up to the heaven shows the development and the jump-up of the group.

* The symbol of the Ryukyu Dynasty dragon symbolizes Okinawa’s strength, vigorously rising towards the sky. Special permission was required in order to use it as our group’s emblem.
