The Shizuka Big Three

The Shizuka's History
The Shizuka's Traditions

The three rising stars of the Iki No Ii Ryuu hanamachi, Kitsuneko, Suzume, and Kirameku, are known as the Big Three, aka, The Little Dragons.

This trio is often seen around the best places to entertain, and are accomplished dancers. If you're lucky enough to be entertained by them, then you're very privileged, indeed.

The Big Three

Kit, Suzi, and Kira, as they are affectionately known, were trained from the Shizuka and are seen as leaders of this hanamachi's community.

Kitsuneko, our greatest dancer, enjoys doing detailed kabuki-esque pieces that tell a story, such as her play, "Poor Ranma". She writes most of them herself, and often puts her own twist on an established kabuki play (such as her interpretation of "The Mirror Lion").

Suzume is a wonderful geisha, who took to the Flower and Willow World like a duck to water. She is a magnificent entertainer whose dances are largely interpretations of nature.

Kirameku, a sweet, affectionate geisha, is very accomplished in tea ceremony, as well as being an exquisite, versatile dancer.
