Adrian Esteban is by far one of the most innovative players in Kendama. He has changed the way we perceive kendama, how it can be played, and how it can shape us. In this episode, we dive deep into innovation, imposter syndrome, early dama days, falling in love with string, a desire to stand out, fashion, style, music, and more!
