Danse du Jour
I'm not certain what style of dance Kanichi (not certain on the spelling) is performing here, but I see elements of break dance, hip hop, and tae kwon do. What I like is how his movements very much reflect the music. Much of the time, when I see a break dance performance, the music is incidental to the dance, with the movements being only beat-driven at best.

If you have a better version of Kanichi's dance, or a link to his website (if he has one), please share! I'd love to see more of his stuff.

His name is Kenichi Ebina and he definitely has a website. I've listed it below.

I'm always excited to see new dance fusion type styles done as flawlessly as he does them. From his bio, it looks like he's a mostly self taught artist. Pretty incredible. If you search under his name, you should find multiple performances on YouTube.

Happy hunting!
