My name is Sachi. I was born and raised in Japan and spent many years as a professional ballet dancer with one of Tokyo's premier ballet companies. In 2011, I moved to the Yukon and began teaching classical ballet at Leaping Feats, now known as "The Heart of Riverdale."

 

I inherited a love for sewing from my mother, who owns a sewing and alterations business in Japan, and also contributed to costume making for Japan's national ballet. Initially, I focused on constructing ballet tutus before expanding into clothing alterations.

 

Currently, I serve as the director of the costume department and a ballet instructor at The Heart of Riverdale, where my costumes are featured in every show.

 

In 2024, after further training with my mother in Japan, I decided to open my own business in the Yukon, prompted by requests from friends and students for alterations. I am also passionate about handcrafts, and will sell them on this website soon!
