She continued to perform while attending the Nippon Sport Science University (日本体育大学), usually placing 3rd in most tournaments until her graduation in 1995. She also showed her talents during her days in Hello! Project, often in live performances while in Taiyou to Ciscomoon and once on Utaban during a jump rope competition with Akagumi 4.
Additionally, Shinoda is a noticed dancer. From 1995 to 1998, she was also a member of "Firegirls", the then-cheerleader dance team for the Yomiuri Giants. She left upon joining the ASAYAN auditions.
