Those who took Akira Uchida’s contemporary class in New York City last summer learned a high-energy combination to share with their students back home. Uchida’s style infuses contemporary with an influence of jazz and hip hop, and he danced full-out in front of the class to demonstrate. A popular faculty member with JUMP convention, Uchida understands his responsibility as a role model for young dancers.
