Natori (dancer) is a kind of dancer

Content from Suzushi Hanayagi edit

Suzushi Hanayagi was born Mitsuko Kiuchi, in Osaka, Japan, in 1928. At the age of three she started her dance training with her aunt, Suzukinu Hanayagi, learning the Hanayagi style, a traditional kabuki school of dance founded in the Edo period.[1] At the age of 20, she became a natori, receiving her Hanayagi name[2] after mastering 100 dances. She subsequently began studying with Takehara Han,[3] a master dancer based in Tokyo who developed her singular classic salon style related to mai styles started in Osaka and Kyoto during the Edo period, and incorporating techniques related to Noh theater. Interested in these more abstract and poetic styles, Hanayagi later added studies with Yachiyo Inoue, headmaster of the Inoue[4] school, a Kyoto-based dance style used by geisha, with whom she continued to study until 2000, when she ceased actively performing.

Content from Nyonin Kinsei edit

There is a school of Japanese dance that was founded by a kabuki actor (high-born or family member) and has been headed by a kabuki actor (family member) for generations, and there are daughters of kabuki actors who work as Japanese dancers. The eldest daughter and Takako Matsu of Matsumoto Shiroko II are the Natori of the Matsumoto school, while the eldest daughter and second daughter of Ichikawa Danjūrō IX are the second and third Iemoto of the Ichikawa school. The current head of the school, Ichikawa Juhon (the eldest daughter of Ichikawa Danjūrō XI), is also active as a kabuki choreographer. In addition, kabuki actors sometimes appear as guests at Shinpa performances.[5]、As a result, many daughters of kabuki actors (Kuriko Namino, Harumoto Yuka, etc.) and former kabuki actors (Kawai Yukinojo, Kitamura Rokuro, etc.) are enrolled in the Shinpa Theater Company.
