About Project STAR

Project STAR is a student-led organization based in Tokyo, Japan, dedicated to providing dance workshops for individuals with persistent stutters. Our workshops aim to create a supportive and judgment-free space for self-expression and confidence-building.

Our Purpose

Our project aims to support individuals with persistent stutters, recognizing that increased speech disfluencies often lead to frustration, anxiety, and fear of speaking. To this, our organization provides workshops where individuals can express themselves through movement. By creating a supportive and safe environment, we help individuals reconnect with themselves physically and mentally, building confidence through a judgment-free and enjoyable approach to expressing their feelings and challenges related to stuttering.
