5.00I went with two friends and we attended the class when visiting Tokyo. It was a marvelous experience and we all had a great time learning how to handle katanas and cutting blocks of foam with precision. We also shot arrows and competed against each other for prizes. Our instructor was awesome and a real interesting person. I would highly recommend this class if you have the time. Also, if you arrive before 9:30 you can watch the instructor and his assistant go through their daily training regiment cutting bamboo mats. This was really fun to watch.

5.00This was a fantastic authentic experience for our family. The host was very engaging. We loved learning the history of samurai, how the swords are made and practicing the art of using a samurai. We also learnt about Japanese archery and practiced hitting targets in the studio. We were all provided with traditional training wear which made for great photos. It was a memorable experience.
Amazing experience!!! I definitely recommend it a lot!!!

5.00One of the best experiences I could bring from Japan. The teacher is very professional, has everything very well planned for training, teaches you, supervises you, corrects you and eventually even gets excited when it goes well. I suggest that you arrive before the start time so that you get ready and that you go in time because it lasts about 3 hours a little longer, but you miss everything very quickly, it is something that I highly recommend. Beware of the distance, it is more than an hour walk from Shibuya/Shinjuku, and it is early, traffic time and entrance to the offices so take precautions to get there.
Amazing Experience with an amazing instructor

A slice of history with a lot of fun

5.00I've never been to Japan before. So I wanted to learn and get a feel for the history of Japans infamous Samurai and their way of life. This experience provided an amazing and unforgettable insight albeit just a snippet of Samurai life with a sword aka Katana. Our instructor, Sumida San and his assistant (apologies. I forgot your name) were truly excellent, easy going, easy introductions to the martial arts made the whole experience both fun and educational. The practice with the Katana the cutting of the blocks, the sparring with the firm but soft spongy katana and the Kyudo/archery all made this into a truly amazing memorable experience. I traveled from Shinjuku by train to the dojo which was easy to find as Google maps links are provided and an easy 15min stroll or less to the dojo from Machida station, plenty of shops and places to eat in the area too. I would definitely recommend this experience and should I ever get back to Japan I would certainly do this again. It has actually made me want to try find somewhere local to try and take it up and practice more.

5.00I have been doing martial arts for years and this was an incredibly authentic experience with a true master and follower of Bushido. Sumido sensei and his assistant are so welcoming and share their knowledge freely. The class involves far more practical experience than I anticipated and it dosen’t matter what level you are - you will feel safe and encouraged to learn. The experience teaches a lot about Japanese culture also. Thank you so much for a wonderful insight into the Samurai.
Highlight of our trip

5.00The entire experience was amazing. Sumida-sensei was patient, thorough, captivating, interesting, and he added moments of fun and witty humor. From handling the katana, to sparring, to archery, while also learning about the entire construction of the sword and his history as a samurai descendant, made for fascinating learning. From beginning to end, it was an amazing experience and training that was a highlight of our trip.
A raw, beautiful and challenging experience

5.00One of the most genuine experiences I had in Japan that felt wholesome, fun and challenging. This isn't like a typical tourist gimmick. Sumida sensei goes out of his way to help you understand the history, culture and mechanics of the samurais and their weapons. He makes a challenging concept fun and helps you push yourself by creating a safe and fun environment. The only thing I feel sad about is the fact that I can't stay and learn from him and Harry.

5.00Just an amazing authentic experience altogether. Clearly not a tourist trap. Highly recommend for anyone interested in the history of Samurai, or for anyone who wants to learn the basics of Japanese swordsmanship. The dojo master was kind and clearly knowledgeable, and the class was engaging and intriguing throughout. DO NOT miss this experience on your next trip to Japan!
