NANDA (pronounced, nah-n-dah): A colloquial Japanese expletive used in reaction to something strange or unusual. Literal translation; “What??!”
Acrobaticalism (pronounced, acrobatical-ism): An ideal of unbounded imagination and creative agility.
NANDA is a four-man performing arts group characterized by a calculated chaos of dancing, juggling, music, acrobatics, slow motion and high energy kung-faux fighting. It’s like watching a circus-ninja-dance-comedy-action-movie, performed live on stage. Their show is all at once exuberantly innovative & widely appealing to audiences of all ages.
NANDA has been evolving their shenanigans over the last twenty years. Every aspect of the show including the soundtrack is written & performed by Kiyota, Tomoki, Chen & Misha. NANDA has toured throughout the world – performing for communities, festivals, in theaters and for private events.
NANDA motivates audiences to collaborate on projects & have fun. You don't want to miss the opportunity to bring NANDA to your corporate event.

The four performing members of NANDA grew up together in Port Townsend, WA and within the supportive environment cultivated there, developed a vision of limitless creative expression free of predefined labels, which has become an ideal for an entirely new and unique idea of performance art. Using this idea of acrobaticalism” as a window to the world, NANDA has invented material gaining inspiration everywhere from cinema and pop-culture icons to rock music and even cartoons.
This explode-out-of-the-box mentality has inspired extensive explorations into a variety of other avenues, including live video projection, animation and sound. Nearly every second of the action being performed is accompanied by a tightly integrated cinematic sound track making the show a visceral audio/visual blast. This full sensory experience along with the high degree of physicality used to convey the action make NANDA shows accessible not only to audiences of virtually any age or background, but also of any language or nationality.
