2019年12月13日 祇園の事始めを撮影いたしました。 【Koto Hajime】 From around 10:00, Geiko and Maiko in Gion visit their teachers, and others to thank them. They bring kagami-mochi (symmetrical rice cake for New Year’s ) to their teachers.
Awesome thank you such grace, composure and beauty from the youngest to the most senior of those ladies and some of the colours of their Kimonos stunning
A wonderful tapestry of ancient culture and a meeting of the young and old. It is good to see the respect that the culture has in modern society. May we never forget to honor those who came before us.
I truly love the Japanese people, culture and everything. They are very respectful and honest! I have a really good friend (Yasko Sanaka) and she’s amazing! I could be watching this all day... ☺️ thanks for sharing.
The Beauty of Dress and Culture abounds in this video. It's so interesting to see. Thank you for sharing your video. Continue your Amazing work. Always gives me great enjoyment.
Thank you for always watching my video. I appreciate your comment. I'm happy you enjoy this video. I will do my best to live up to your expectations👍👍👍 Thanks.
Hi Anna, I live in Brazil, in the city of São Paulo, I recently discovered your channel, I was amazed, thank you for making me emotional and focusing more intensely on my trip to Japan. Thank you.
Thank you for always watching my video. I'm glad that you enjoyed this video😊😊😊 I would like to continue to tell you about the charms of Kyoto. Thank you very much👍
A beautiful tribute to the style and grace of this Japanese tradition. As we loose more and more of this to the modern world, your video's remind us of a simpler and more gracious time. Thanking ones' benefactor and teachers.... keeps this alive for the rest of us to enjoy. Thank you for everything you've shared with us this year. We... I only hope that you continue with what you feel so passionate about, and that 2020 brings to all of us your excellence in creating your videos. May you be blessed forever.
Thank you for always watching my video and thank you for your heartwarming comment all the time. I will make further efforts in making better videos. I appreciate all the support you have given me this year, and I hope this coming year will be another prosperous year for all of us. Thanks.
To look at these charming young persons is a real pleasure for the eyes. They are all so very pretty, graceful and polite. Compared to them we are rude and our manners are vulgar, we should take lessons from them. Thank you for sharing these precious moments.
Nebulous social elegance of geiko and maiko bowing to each other in the cool and clear bright morning sunshine of early winter in front of the Inoue school of traditional Kyoto dance.
Thank you very much for another beautiful video which provides a peek into an elegant cultural event. Each of your productions are amazing! We had our もちつき last weekend and made komochi, anmochi, and okasane, and give as gifts too. どうもありがとうございました!
Thank you for always watching my video. I appreciate your comment. it is very encouraging for me. I have not been pounded rice cake since elementary school. I want to pound rice cake because freshly made rice cake is very delicious. Thanks.
The first geiko who walked out of her okiya with her maiko younger sister behind..was so cute. How are the hanamachi faring during the pandemic though? Wish they had a website saying who's who in the geiko world now cause I dont know anyone lol

Ookini Anna for posting this. How'd you manage to get into the Inoue studio? It's great seeing the geimaiko, especially giggling Mameharu, in such a relaxed atmosphere. Yachio V looks wonderful and has such a good rapport with the girls. Thanks again for sharing this enjoyable video. Looking forward to shigyoshiki (with Satsuki san hopefully being Number One again) and hatsuyori.
Anna your productions are absolutely beautiful. I look forward to all of your works. What is the title and artist of the opening to 4:50 it's fitting and mesmerizing in the world of the Geisha.
Thank you for your comment. I appreciate your kind words. I will do my best to keep up the good work. This music is ”From Within by Kevin Graham_artlist” Thanks.
Thank you for your response to my question. From Within reminds me of the end credits music by Edward Shearmur from the movie Passengers starring Anne Hathaway. It would be a good one for your future posts.
I hope Japan keeps supporting this; both the women and the customers. This is not just for itself, but is a very large 'canary in the coal mine' for Japanese traditions. If this culture dies, everything else Japanese is in danger also. I hope the government has a policy to encourage its existence to continue. If Japanese culture faded, it would be like the Egyptian pyramids had been bulldozed.
