Saburo Teshigawara and Junaid Jemal Sendi

Rolex Mentor and Protégé in Dance, 2004 - 2005

“Rolex has introduced me to the world,” says Ethiopia’s Junaid Jemal Sendi, whose life has been transformed by dance. His mentorship, under leading Japanese choreographer Saburo Teshigawara, takes Sendi to Europe and Japan. “Now he has just opened his own future door,” says Teshigawara in admiration. “And he wants to go further.”
