Biography

Early life

Kenjiro Yamashita was born on 24 May 1985, in Kyoto Prefecture.[2] His family moved to Nara Prefecture when he was still in pre-school for his father's job, but they moved back to Kyoto Prefecture in his second grade.[8] At Nagaokakyo Municipal Nagaoka Daishi Junior High School, he began to play basketball after joining the basketball club with his friends,[9] and he became so obsessed with basketball that he chose to enrol in Kyoto Prefectural Koyo High School because it had one of the basketball teams in Kyoto Prefecture. He was the captain of the school basketball team in his final year.[10]

With an ambition to win the favour of girls, Yamashita began dancing in his second year of high school. His friend taught him breaking, and they performed at the cultural festival of his high school that year.[11][12] Being so fond of dancing, he quit university ten days after his enrolment and then spent his time practicing dancing and doing part-time jobs.[11] He also switched from breaking to Hip-Hop because with the limit of his height(187 cm), it would be harder for him to perform classic breaking dance moves like the windmill.[12] Seeing his love for dancing, his mother suggested him to go to a proper dancing school to make a living out of it.[11][13] As a result, he enrolled in the street dancing department at Cat Music College in Osaka.[11][14] Upon graduation, Yamashita was offered the job of a parade dancer at Universal Studio Japan. He worked there for two years and participated in many shows and parades.[12][13][15]

In 2007, Yamashita got an opportunity to serve as a backup dancer in Exile's tour Exile Live Tour 2007 'Exile Evolution'. He was shocked and impressed after seeing the performance of Exile in close distance, and the seed of dreaming to become an artist just like Exile took root in his heart.[11] He enrolled in EXPG Osaka(a talent school run by Exile's management company LDH) as soon as it opened and he became an instructor there later.[2][16] His students included Yuta Nakatsuka, Mio Nakajima, Shūka Fujii, Karen Fujii, Zin, Shogo Iwaya, Masahiro Sunada and Rikiya Okuda.[12] Then he quit his steady job at Universal Studio Japan to focus on his dream, much to the surprise of the management team of USJ since it seems insane to give up such a well-paid job. His resignation was accepted after he showed his determination to try his best to pursue his dream, and he got blessings from his former bosses and colleagues.[12] During his time at EXPG Osaka, he did more backup dancers jobs for Exile and other LDH's artists.
