I agree , and what’s fascinating to to go back and time and imagine what these performances looked like 3,000 years ago. These dances are Culture personified.
Her name is Umeha, she’s from the Kamishichiken district. I think I’ve read that she’s been working since the early 2000s so I bet she knows this dance like the back of her own hand at this point.
From what I understand Umeha San was never a maiko, she debuted as a geiko due to her age. But you'd never know it by watching her because she looks as if she has been doing it her whole life, she's a natural. Easily one of my favorites.
@@xmeimiYep. She started in her 20s, so like I have said, she debuted as a geiko. However, if you really look for it, you can find a picture of her with a maiko's haircut. That is as close to 'maiko Umeha San' as we can ever get. As for why she had that haircut, I have no idea. Cheers!
Wow, this is some kind of a cultural performance! Japan is one of the places i've been dying to visit ever since. It's amazing what technology can do nowadays as we get to witness everything without being there personally. Love it!!!

Thanks for your interesting comment, i like both to see the dance and to listen Gion Kouta and was wonder why all maiko dance so different performing one dance
@@ВалентинаМ-и4ш There are five areas in Kyoto where geiko and maiko are active. The appearance and customs are the same, but the schools of dance are different. It is rare for five geisha and maiko to dance together as in this video.

Absolutely. Not to mention the time it took to make their kimono, all those accessories they are wearing and to put all that on and the makeup and hair. Thank you for watching.
It was awesome seeing the different versions of Gion Kouta being danced side by side. I have always wanted to see what the different interpretations were like.
Пересматривала много раз.Просто завораживает, очень интересно наблюдать.Не могу оценить все тонкости, но как зритель получила огромное удовольствие, боагодарю.
They really are the most beautiful creatures of any culture or country anywhere on the Earth. Nothing compares to their gracefulness and beautiful costumes and there perfectly lovely personalities
She is so elegant. If she was me, I would be so shy that I would totally make awkward reactions, let only performing. So admire her virtues! She made the very basic activities in life look so feminine, elegant and super artistic!
You can tell Maiko from Geiko Dave by their Kimono colors, their Obi, makeup, hair, and hair decor. FIRST 2 were Geiko and LAST dance of 3 were Maiko. The Obi of a Maiko goes to the floor, the Obi of a Geiko is tied high at the waste, similar to basic Kimono. In Japan only younger girls wear BRIGHT and COLORFUL Kimonos with LONG FLOWING SLEEVES, more mature woman in their later 20's and up do not have flowing sleeves on their Kimono it is culturally wrong, and their Kimonos are much more subdued, as in not so flashy. Still beautiful. (My wife is Japanese and Daughter and live in Japan, she is student of Japanese Tea Ceremony for 7 years.) Anyhow THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing, I plan to have a nice private dinner with Geiko in Kyoto soon. My wife grew up on the mountain above Osaka, Kobe area.... Taskalaska or something like that. Apparently BOTH Geiko and Maiko have long flowing sleeves, but the gowns of the Maiko you can see are much more ornate. A Geiko also wears a wig, however a Maiko uses her own here. The lips of a Maiko are fully painted red, the lips of a Geiko are only partially painted red. Maiko always ornate hair pieces, such as flowers and such, Geiko have much more plane hair ornamentation.
Been awhile since I wrote the above. As you note, the proof is in the very small details. I won't claim to be an expert, but I also have been somewhat educated in it from Japanese family. I would have to brush up again. The easiest way in any dress in japanese society is that only young girls can wear flashy, or even some revealing clothing. As you get into your mid 20's you are somewhat damned to the most boring clothes in terms of color and fashion so as to not bring disrespect upon yourself. You can apply that in this case as well, loosely. if its flashy, it is probably more Mako. @@robert111k

What makes this so interesting is that you can literally see different stages of a geimaiko's career in one video and see what a difference experience makes. Umeha's, while young, has been around a while, while Momifuku is a newer geiko. Both geiko's dances, to my untrained eye, seemed more expressive with more fluid and confident movements compared to the maiko. However, even within the group of maiko Toshiemi's movements seemed more fluid and expressive compared to the much newer Katsuharu and Kanohisa (although, I've always considered Toshiemi's dancing to be a joy to watch; I've seen a video of her dancing as a 2nd year maiko and loved every second of it).
I actually never thought of it that way but you are very right. I was focused very much on capturing it and dodging cameramen and never looked at the situation in detail. Thank you for your input. You made me realize I need to make more time to appreciate them and not always focusing on capturing the moment.
This was wonderful! thanks so much Dave. I sent the link to my daughter, sister and cousins. Our mother was from Japan, her father was Russian and her mother was Japanese.
These dances had a story to tell and I wish some to interpret it . Such elegance, such grace such beautiful voice lamenting something but I Cnt understand . Surely a sad sing! Someone can tell me
Amazing... thank you Dave... only 2nd video of yours I've watched, and now I must continue. I'm intrigued. You have sparked a new interest in me, and I feel uneducated since I am from Midwest USA
Black kimono is their formal dress. The green tree in the background is a pine tree, because of no change of its leaf color, a symbol of eternal prosperity. The bamboo on the right is usually decorated with a set of pine, bamboo, and plum blossoms for auspicious formal occasions, now to celebrate the New Year.
This is so beautiful! What a rare opportunity to be able to watch this traditional Maiko and Geiko performance- thank you so much for sharing! I was surprised how unique their dances seem to be like they are freestyling while they stay in their own dance zone but start and finish together, there doesn't seem to be much that is synchronized here. I look forward to talking with you about this experience in a few hours live on my channel's #seekingsustainabilitylive series episode 33 - so glad you can join the series + happy I can help support the great work you are doing in Japan to share culture, traditions and the authentic Japan travel experience to the world!
I hope I can help^^ the reason why the maiko aren't synchronized is because they're from different districts. Many of the same dances are preformed across the same kagai in the same area but because they're taught by different schools, each kagai has their own style ^^
I just found out I'm never gonna be able to go to Japan, due to not being able to bring my ADHD meds into the country...my heart hurts because i'll never be able to see the artistry of the geiko in person, but it's nice to be able to watch it online.
I hope that circumstances will change so that you are able to come here one day. Don’t say never. I am glad you could enjoy this video for now to get a glimpse of them. Thank you for taking the time to watch, Jayne.
@@20PINKluvr yeah, I tried a lot of those but none of them were helpful. my psychiatrist wanted to try medications less likely to be abused before stimulant meds, but stimulant meds turned out to be what was helpful for me.
Great video, so relaxing and captivating to watch. Now, I have to comment on some of the people replying to show their annoyance at the camera sounds, saying things like "why don't they turn the sound off" and i have to laugh because as you know David, those sounds are mechanical, it's the actual sound of a DSLR's shutter opening and closing, those asking to "turn it off" made me laugh, very funny
Oh my! This performance was amazing! I am really in love with Maikos and Geishas, i really want to become a Geisha in the future, but the job of being a Maiko And Geisha i really hard, but i really would love to become one of the amazing aritists.
The Maiko from Miyagawa cho has an interesting updo. Not ware Shinobu or Ofuku, like the Gion Higashi and Kobu Maiko. And as is the stereotype for her district, she is SO beautiful.
She is Maiko Toshiemi-san, she became a geiko last year. Senior Maiko in Miyagawa Cho wear that hairstyle, called Yakko Shimada for important events like this (shigyoshiki)^^
Geiko dance movements are exceptional. Arms, hands, head, eyes, knees ... everything moves absolutely perfect, slow, fluid, graceful. It is impossible not to feel strong emotions in front of so much art.
Very first dancer here is Geiko Umeha such a good dancer. ❤️So demure and elegant. Hope I can meet her if I ever visit Kyoto. Can anyone tell me if she still performs?

the cameras are super annoying to the art and performance.they are all simply clickers.one shot is all it takes,to find that perfect shot is an art in itself.other than that chatter.i am enthralled and captivated by everything here.Thank you very much Dave,for your footage.
All the songs received a copyright strike so I have a list of them somewhere. I will post them eventually. If you use a music detection software it should be able to tell you also.
A little bit more information. Black kimono with family crests are the most formal kimono, called kuromontsuki, as stated below, they're for extremely important events such as weddings (Worn by the mothers of the married couple and eventually the bride herself). This event is called Shigyoshiki, the Commencement ceremony where the business of the new year is started again, the celebration involves going to the various tea houses and other places and people important to the community and offering thanks for the support as well as to ask for more support i the future.

the cameras are super annoying to the art and performance.they are all simply clickers.one shot is all it takes,to find that perfect shot is an art in itself.other than that chatter.i am enthralled and captivated by everything here.Thank you very much Dave,for your footage.
So annoying the noises of the cameras! Why do they allow that?
It’s a photo shoot and they paid to be there so not much I can do about that.
@@DaveinOsaka I'm planning to go someday, glad that's an exception :)
Mmm, is it a good idea to take so many photos. It may disturb the serenity of the performer and the assistance 🤔
It’s a paid photoshoot so they are dancing for the photographers. 600 bucks a head.
Any idea of the dance names?
All the songs received a copyright strike so I have a list of them somewhere. I will post them eventually. If you use a music detection software it should be able to tell you also.
