Ekoji Dharma School and Kikuyuki no Kai dancers perform traditional Japanese numbers before audiences at the National Japanese American Memorial as part of the Cherry Blossom Festival.

The all female troupe included members of various ages and symbolized the continuity of Japanese traditions from older generations to younger generations.

The dance was performed after the sixth annual Cherry Blossom Freedom Walk in a salute to American patriotism.
