About Us

While working as a pin-up model and dancer, Kaori Hiyama first met Yoda, a talented choreographer and dancer.
As they continued to work together as dancers in Tokyo, Hiyama had the chance to wear Yoda’s handmade costumes, which showcased Yoda's exceptional talent for design.

Inspired by a shared vision to bring Yoda's creative talents to a wider audience, the two launched HIYAMAYA, a clothing brand focused on creating stylish and sexy costumes that are perfect for pole dancers and stage performers, offering a blend of eye-catching designs, flexibility, and comfort to enhance performance on stage.

Yoda now resides in Amsterdam, where she produces and crafts the outfits, while Hiyama continues her work as a model and dancer, while also managing the HIYAMAYA brand and store in Tokyo.
