UMA is pleased to welcome Ryuya Kuwasaki, a leading figure of the new generation of Japanese parkour / freerun athletes. Renowned for having one of the most innovative styles in the scene today, he continuously develops spectacular wall tricks — sometimes seemingly “impossible” — embodying this new wave of Japanese style masters.
Blending creativity, precision, and movement exploration, his visit to UMA offers a rare opportunity to discover a unique universe and a demanding approach to urban movement and performance.
“My name is Ryuya Kuwasaki. I am a Japanese artist specializing in parkour, known for my creative tricks and wall movements. My friends started calling me the “King of the Wall,” which led to invitations to international events, including Red Bull Art of Motion.
I spent a year in Ollerup, Denmark, focusing on parkour and gymnastics, and I always try to create something new in every session by blending influences from different movement cultures.
Currently, I perform on Celebrity Cruises alongside singers, dancers, and other artists on a large stage equipped with screens. It’s a new space for parkour culture, and I’m excited to keep pushing it even further.
My signature style features unusual tricks on walls and variations in the shapes of movements. Recently, the “Full un Full”—a simple backflip with rotations to the right and left—is becoming my trademark move. I am currently developing new variations of it.
I have also won several Japanese and Asian championships.”
