Overview
Most geisha dance experiences end almost before they begin: two short dances, about 10 minutes. Here you get a full hour, right in Nishiki Market. Please note: this is not a show by geisha. It is Nihon Buyo, the star among the arts geisha learn, performed by its true specialists: Senju school dancers supervised by Grand Master Senju Einojo. Your hour: two dances that begin in a glass tea room and move onto a Zen rock garden stage at your seats; an English workshop on what each movement means; a final dance and Tora Tora, the classic geisha party game; then photo time for every group. Photos and video welcome. One drink included, and every group has its own table. Add lunch or early dinner at ZEN, flagship of Arc, a Wagyu group with Tripadvisor "Best of the Best" winners two years running and a 4.9 Google rating (3,500+ reviews): an 80g A5 Yamagata Heifer Wagyu sirloin, the "Queen of Wagyu", in one of Kyoto's most stunning interiors.
