For a fifteen minute dance performance an estimated 70 people are required. The expense of such productions, costing anywhere from 3 million yen (18.8 thousand euro, or 27.5 thousand dollars) to upwards of 8 million yen (50 thousand euro, or 73.5 thousand dollars) makes classical dance a hobby only for the wealthy or the talented and rare few fortunate to have sponsors.

Sensualità e seduzione fanno parte della tradizione della Geisha considerata la massima esperta nelle belle maniere. Intrattenitrice giapponese, le sue abilità includono tutte le arti, dalla musica, al canto e non ultima la danza. Le geishe erano molto comuni tra il XVIII e il XIX secolo, mentre oggi la loro tradizione si sta affievolendo. Le donne che scelgono d’intraprendere questa professione devono affrontare lunghi anni di studio e disciplina. Per perfezionare le tecniche e sostenere i notevoli costi di abbigliamento, trucco, cura del corpo e della cultura necessitano di molto danaro. Questa è una delle ragioni per cui oggi in Giappone se ne contano poche migliaia.
