The purpose of this study is to clarify the dance theory of Miki Wakamatsu who is a representative dancer, choreographer, professor and director of dance in Japan. It was extracted from his writings and personal interviews, focusing on the general problems in dance and his approaches to creating dance works. The following conclusions has been reached: 1. As to the general problems of dance, dance is a conjugation with “Mu” which means “saturation of energy”. Dance communication is not only between the dancer and the audience but includes the intervention of Divine Spirit. Dance is an effective response to stress relief in crisis. The psychosomatic sense of the dancer has 3 phases; joints-muscle sense, skeletal sense and molecular sense. Wakamatsu's attitude toward creating dance works is being intellectually flexible and allowing self-criticism. 2. As to his approaches to creating dance works, contents are extracted from living daily life. Contents pursue the full range of emotion, energy of movements, vitality of living and reality. Approaches to dance works balance between the abstract and the concrete through editing movements, and creating caricature in movements. Therefore, Wakamatsu's dance work is the challenge of putting his art at the intersection between the contemporary era and himself.
