Today young Japanese women (teens) that are devoted to learning and living the lifestyle and art of Geisha can apply to be trained.

It is very much a fully time job in the way that their entire life is changed to that strict way of life. If the lady is devout in her training as Minarai, Hangyouku, and Maiko she will graduate to being a Geisha or a Geiko (depending on the area that she lives).

Can a western girl become a Geisha?

It is almost impossible for a western girl to become a Geisha. Geisha are only Japanese females, and they begin their training around the age of 16. There have been two instances that non-Japanese women have been allowed to become Geisha, and that is because they were being near the Geisha as a study, and the Geisha took them under their wing and allowed them to go through the process. If you would like to become more like a Geisha, take lessons on manners, etiquette, poise, as well as Japanese dance, poetry, conversation skills, and classic Japanese instruments.
