His dance is a synthesis of theater, performance and dance. Tadashi Endo expresses the field of tension between ying and yang, male and female, and their everlasting alteration. “He manages to fill that void with a poetic beauty, precision movement and spiritual flavor. It`s like cut grass and cut glass, one smells good and brings back memory, the other cuts into you leaving a scar.” David Carter
