Meet your artists
Licensed geisha of the Asakusa hanamachi — tachi-kata dancers and ji-kata musicians performing together. Every performance is live, never scripted.
About the hanamachiYour artists
Every ozashiki begins with 2 geisha — a dancer and a musician, performing together. You may add more artists to deepen the ensemble.
Our okami recommends three geisha — a dancer, a musician, and one more to deepen the stage — for a richer, more balanced performance.
Choose your geisha ensemble.
For parties of 6+, a third geisha joins automatically.
For larger ensembles, write to us — we’ll design the performance with you.
Exclusive option
Japan’s rarest performing art — available only here.
Hōkan (Taikomochi)
Only here in JapanA hōkan (also known as a taikomochi) is a professional male entertainer of the highest order — master of storytelling, song, comedy, and traditional games — who performs alongside geisha at formal banquets. Asakusa is the only place in Japan where formally registered hōkan perform; this art exists nowhere else in the country. Adding a hōkan to your evening makes for an experience found nowhere else in the world.
What exactly is a hōkan?
Also called taikomochi — from taiko (drum) and mochi (to carry) — originally referring to those who carried the drum in grand processions. Over centuries the role evolved into a dedicated entertainer who accompanies geisha banquets, lifting the mood with wit, games, and live performance. The hōkan art is officially registered as part of Japan’s living cultural heritage, and Asakusa is its sole remaining home.
Hōkan join the 2-hour and 3-hour plans. On the 1-hour plan, the stage belongs to the geisha alone — to add a hōkan, choose a longer plan.
Add a hōkan to your ozashiki
Not sure how many? One is plenty — a single hōkan brings the whole room to life. To enjoy more of their art, choose two or more.
