Cần Quan Tâm

We will meet at Shin Kawasaki Station. Your guide will share how Sumo wrestlers live in real life and the tradition and history of Sumo. Meet your local guide at the Shin-Kawasaki station and head to the real Sumo stable, which was officially used until 2022. First, your guide will explain the unique lifestyle and customs of the sumo world, followed by a room tour to see the dining room, bath, and practice area, where you can get a glimpse of the lives of sumo wrestlers. Afterwards, you will be seated right in front of the sumo ring to watch a morning sumo practice session. Usually, Sumo morning practice begins around 7:00 a.m. and lasts for three to four hours, and a unique training session has continued since the Samurai era. Guests who wish to participate will have the opportunity to experience these movements with us and see firsthand how rigorous the training is. After the match, we will eat chanko-nabe together, a dish that makes a sumo wrestler's body big. We make chicken dumplings, the main ingredient of the chanko-nabe, with the wrestlers, and everyone eats together around a table that was actually used in the sumo room.

This was great fun. We were a group of 6 and we all took a turn at doing the practice moves and then got the chance to fight one of the sumo. There were two recently retired sumo who really made it enjoyable.

Awesome experience. It was really fun to be able to actually learn some basic sumo and actually “wrestle” with them! They were also really funny and the food was really good too!

It was such a mind-opening experience. Our tour guide was the sweetest and explained perfectly how Sumo came to be. Two real life Sumo wrestlers presented to us their work and a tournament was taken place. Everything was interactive and you can even wrestle yourself! Although Sumo looks intimidating they were surprisingly funny, very easy going and definitely kind. It covers all aspects of Sumo and would definitely recommend.

10/10 experience - I’ve been to Japan over a dozen times and this was one of the best organized experiences I’ve ever done. The sumo wrestlers were funny, made you feel comfortable, and it was really interesting, interactive, and informative. Even for those not immediately interested in sumo, I would highly recommend this experience. Super worth it.

Mihori was great. I wrestled with Kai and Rai. It was so much fun. I learned about the history of sumo and the cultural and religions beginnings. I wish I had learned about sumo earlier in my life because now I am stuck as an account manager when I really want to be a sumo wrestler.
