Senmaru and Yuki - Sentosa Buskers Festival 2011

Amazing Japanese Couple - Senmaru and Yuki

Senmaru and Yuki from Japan stood out from the list of performers now performing at Sentosa Buskers Festival 2011.

Spinning teacups on an umbrella or juggling a teapot on a mouth stick seem so easy to this couple. Feats like this are a rare sight even in Tokyo but locals and visitors to Singapore can catch this performance, live at the buskers festival.

My jaws must have dropped watching Senmaru transfer the teapot between the two sticks!


The ceramic teapot seemed to come alive as Senmaru spun it on a mouth stick!

It was my first time seeing Japanese jugglers in the flesh. The couple are hilarious and extremely entertaining. The audience were in stitches all the time.


Audience participation is encouraged. Kids love their performance so much that several 'fought' to help with the show. :D

Holding the string tight, the little boy watched in awe as the top spun towards him along a thin string.

next..... he held them up with only a string!

Amazing!
