Japanese figure skater and ice show producer Yuzuru Hanyu has presented more than 60 different skating programs in the course of his career, among them 26 competition programs which earned him back-to-back Olympic titles in 2014 and 2018, the first Super Slam in the men's singles discipline, and 19 world records among other achievements.

Having experienced the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami in his hometown of Sendai, also known as 3.11, Hanyu has dedicated various performances to the victims of the disaster.

In ice shows, Hanyu has performed live with renowned artists like Japanese singers Toshi and Dean Fujioka, the J-pop band Chemistry, and the Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra.

Experts in- and outside figure skating praised the high technical quality, mature choreographies and musical interpretation, elaborate costumes, as well as the programs' lyrical and intellectual depth.

These features enabled Hanyu to weave his programs into comprehensive philosophical stories written by himself, creating a new genre of performing art and entertainment.
