Bio

Shiori Murayama is a Yokohama-native, LA-based dancer who bridges the vibrant dance scenes of Japan and America. Her professional journey spans both countries, having worked with major artists in Japan including BoA, GENERATIONS, and TVXQ, before making LA her home base in 2023.

Since moving to LA, she's had the incredible opportunity to perform at the Super Bowl Halftime Show with Usher, work with artists like Camila Cabello, LISA, and Chloe Bailey, and is currently on tour with Singaporean artist JJ Lin. Her earlier US credits include the Puma x Balmain live event, Pepsi's Super Bowl Commercial with Missy Elliott and H.E.R, and J Balvin's "ROSA" music video.

She started performing on big stages in Japan from a young age, which gave her a strong foundation in the industry. Growing up, she was always drawn to American dance culture, constantly taking workshops from US choreographers whenever they visited Tokyo. After high school, this passion led her to move to LA to train and assist well-known choreographers.

She's most proud of staying true to her journey while inspiring others, particularly young dancers from Japan who dream of performing internationally. Her story shows that with dedication, family support, and the courage to step outside your comfort zone, you can create your own path in the dance world.
