Would you like to try dancing the mysterious and beautiful shrine maiden dance? Shrine maiden dance is passed down from generation to generation by shrine maidens at shrines. Shrine maiden dance is often performed at Shinto rituals and Shinto ceremonies, so I think many people have never seen it. Originally, it was said that the gods would descend to the shrine maiden who was dancing the shrine maiden dance and give them divine guidance. In other words, by dancing the shrine maiden dance, you can become one with the gods and nature. Shrine maiden dance is filled with the "feeling of respect for the gods" and "beautiful manners" that have been cherished by ancient Japanese people. For both Japanese and foreigners, it will be an opportunity to experience Japan's beautiful culture and learn about the spirituality that Japanese people have cherished. "Why do people find shrine maiden dance beautiful?" We will also look into the secret of its beauty. In this experience, a former professional shrine maiden instructor will carefully teach you the basics of shrine maiden dance. First, after changing into a shrine maiden costume, you will watch a shrine maiden dance performance by the instructor. Learn about the origin and history of shrine maiden dance and the dance, and actually dance to the solemn tunes of Kagura. Your experience at the popular Japanese culture experience cafe in Asakusa is sure to be an unforgettable experience.
