About Me

From Kyoto, Japan, Akiko Tokuoka is a dancer, choreographer, and actress, currently based in New York City.
She has over 20 years experience as a performance artist with modern dancing, ballet, contemporary, kabuki dance, baton twirling and specializing in freestyle dance. She has also received advanced acting training at HB Studio in the Meatpacking District. This led her to be featured in roles at Lincoln Center as well as the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC.

She was also hand selected by Madonna for an exclusive dance show on the icon's birthday in 2011, acted in Off-Broadway Musicals such as "Heather Smiley for President” in 2015 and choreographed and performed in ”WARLOVERS” by James Doyle at Theater Row in 2017.

Akiko has also been featured in commercials for New Era and Nike. She performed for Ciara in "Level Up" at the MNF Genesis Halftime Show in Seattle and choreographed and performed in Lovari's "Paparazzi" music video, which was featured on MTV in October 2018.

Most recently, she performed in the ongoing improv comedy show “BATSU NYC” until March of 2020. She enjoys performing her art in a way that feels beautiful and powerful, and integrating her culture into a new style through her body and face to express her connection with the audience, so that they can create the performance together.
