Jumpei Kogawa

Jumpei Kogawa was born and raised in Aomori, Japan. He was always dancing to pop music when he was young. He moved to Tokyo and started going to dance studios to learn many styles of dance such as Hip-hop, Locking and Jazz and performed on many stages at different events.
Eventually, he got the opportunity to teach dance and choreograph for a lot of girl bands in Japan.
Also he started studying about wellbeing of the body and mind through pilates and yoga and completed pilates teacher training to become a pilates teacher.
The more he found out about the body and mind, the more he discovered how dancing helps improve wellbeing. When he moved to Australia to study dance further, he came across GROOV3 and decided to create a space where anyone can share the joy of dance, regardless of age, gender and dance experience.
