2000”N- Lerning Edo-Daikagura under the 13th Master of the art.

The original purpose of Edo-Daikagura was to serve as a talisman for the people, chasing away evil on behalf of the gods of the shrines. Thus, Daikagura was originally a very sacred and serious performance. Today, the performance is becoming people's entertainment. We wear a "kimono" and perform Japanese traditional juggling.
