I wish their dances weren't in such harsh bright light, it's hard for me to get in the moment

2 words; Love the hair!!!!

[porta0toda1la2vida]

@shadowm2k7 They have got the longest hair in the world, and they need to use extensions. LOL

[DepressedAnimeAddict]

Does anyone have trouble deciphering this? I couldn't see very many moves that made me think of a butterfly...or what the butterfly was doing. Do the different moves just mean different things?

[madenkind]

Does anyone know what's the name of the maiko?

[elianas23]

What's the name of the song?

[xxHartBrokenxx]

@elianas23 it's rokudan kuzushi :3

[isapheonix]

she looks like a child to me, am i the only one who wonders if she enjoys that life?

[DevilShroom]

@isapheonix Some time ago young children were, you could say, forced into the geisha arts but now it's completely and utterly a choice; girls now choose to follow this occupation so I would say yes she's probably thrilled to be doing what she is doing.

[SauryGirl1]

@isapheonix She enjoys it, because She choose it! She had a whole year at when she could just stop doing it.

Being a hard and tough life isent the same as not liking it.

like they get little sleep, must train really hard and have school every day.

[pinksalamanders]

It's amazing how such little feet can make such a loud stomp. xD

[DarkOnyx98]

@pinksalamanders also depends on the material the stage is made of. I seen dances where they stomp their feet but cause of the material of the stage, or floor they're on, some didn't make much noise. You can tell they stomped cause you can still hear it, but wasn't as loud as how she did it.. but yea.. specially since she doesn't lift her feet up that high to be able to bring it down hard enough to really stomp so loud. awesome job though awesome. ENCORE... oh yeah I can just hit play again.lol

[madenkind]

that was awesome! she really makes that song alive, i like it!

[LadoftheWesternWaste]

Lovely dance. :3

Thank you so much for posting this video! I could never find a better version of this dance till now. Maiko Ichiwaka is SO cute!

[mark60060]

@osbourn15

i totally agree with you. Ichikawa is my most favorite. her body movement is perfect compared to other maikos. and she is very pretty :)
