It is said that June 6th, 6-year- and 6-month-old is the best to start lessons of Japanese culture. This keiko-hajime (=start of lessons) tradition comes from “風姿花伝 (fushi-kaden)” written by the great noh actor and producer 世阿弥 (Ze-A-Mi, 1363-1443). He mentions how significant a good commencement is in music and dance.

This is one of the reasons why Mei-Shun started this blog on that date. And let her bring up the biggest please– it is the birthday of her husband Shin.

Seven years have passed since she started Japanese dance. It joined her cat and piano, making long-dreamed life with music and dance come true, at the middle point (?) of her journey.
