The logical and numerical analysis of traditional performing arts including Traditional Japanese Dance has long been considered to be almost impossible. However, the recent motion capturing technique has made quantitative processing of dance body motions possible. We have been studying about the analysis of Traditional Japanese Dance by using motion capture systems, and already reported the quantitative characteristics of the class of fundamental motions "Okuri" focusing on the motion of ankles. This paper describes the investigation about "Tame" pattern found in motion of ankles. The result of the analysis implies the "Tame" pattern in ankles might be resulted from the subtle time lags of the motions in shoulder, breast, hip triggered by the vertical motion in the center of the gravity. Thus, the result of the research shows the possibilities of extracting the characteristics of feminine impression by the motion analysis of fundamental motion "Okuri".
