Chit Chat with Creatives is a new initiative by Fuchsia Lane where we speak to like minded creatives from different fields on what drives their passion for creativity and to know more about the sacrifices, struggles and tenacity as to how they got to where they are.

​

We are very honoured to have Chihiro Uchida, former Principal Dancer from Singapore Dance Theatre, to be our first guest.

​

Chihiro has loved and enjoyed dancing from a young age of two and half years, as soon as she learnt how to walk! She eventually received a scholarship from The Australian Ballet School back in 2000 at the Asian Pacific Ballet Competition in Tokyo. Thereafter, this led on to her auditioning with Singapore Dance Theatre in 2005 where she was offered a contract as Principal Dancer. She finally retired from her illustrious career December of 2023 and is now the Artistic Director for Kadence Ballet Academy, passing on her passion for her craft to other aspiring young and adult ballerinas.

 

These two videos above, we get an introduction to Chihiro and how she came to know about Fuchsia Lane. Both of these videos above are also available on our Instagram @fuchsia_lane .

 

We also have Fuchsia Lane's Founder & Creative Director, Vivienne, dress Chihiro in a couple of outfits from Fuchsia Lane based on some fun questions we ask Chihiro.

​
