Just the teacher and I this time.

At the end, I got nervous and messed up. I wish it wasn't so apparent. I had the thing down pat too! Oh well!

The second part is a story about a man who wanted a spear the Emperor had. The Emperor laughed and told the man to drink a large bowl of sake. He was then to show he was worthy to have the spear.... while drunk... ^^

PS- this is just a class, it's not REAL Kabuki.

  • Really?! Awesome!! Sadly the instructor that was teaching here had to sop for a bit. : ( I miss it!!

    I honestly don't know where to find the choreography. A lot of it is just story telling and using certain movements to express it. Best bet it to see what others do and adapt from there. Best of luck!!

  • This is one of the more attention grabbing videos that I've found, would you mind if I used it on a presentation on Kabuki arts for my Japanese Club?

  • Sure, I don't mind. It's definately a "beginner" level presentation.

  • hey,i was wondering if you could help me since u are a sensai, and know about kabuki theater.. I am a student studying Theater Artsand i am currently studying Kabuki theater and actor training techniques, i was wondering if there was any information you could provide me on the subject of Kabuki actor training tecniques... thank you

  • IE- Kabuki video from 8 months ago.

    I'm so sorry, I didn't see this comment until today. I would have sent you the info you requested. I have a feeling it's null and void now. My apologies.

see all

  • Heyy! I am ALSO doing a presentation on Kabuki theatre for my acting class- and I was wondering if you knew where I could find any coreography for a Kabuki dance. Ive been looking all over the internet. It doesnt have to be a hard dance. I just dont even know where to start looking...

    Thank you so much!

  • I think you did great! It was a real pleasure to watch this video! ^^ I didn't even notice that you messed up until I read the description! :)

  • it very good that you learn kabuki Arts. do worry about making mistakes, you'll get it.

    I know, i'm a Sensai my self. even teachers make mistakes. if you are in Hawaii, come and dance for me at the Minyo Odori kai, in Waianae. Gambate !!!
