Highlights

The instructors at "Sogu," a center for experiencing traditional Japanese culture, are all top-tier professionals. We offer unique experiences that set us apart from other activities in Kyoto. Our Japanese sword instructor is not only a master of swordsmanship but also skilled in Chinese martial arts and dance; notably, he is an actor who appeared in the film "The Last Samurai". Look forward to a truly authentic martial arts experience accompanied by a compelling, dramatic performance. Go beyond a superficial encounter to discover the true allure of Japan here in Kyoto, and gain insight into the samurai's secret of uniting mind, technique, and body.

About Kyoto

Kyoto, Japan's imperial capital for over a thousand years, is a city of temples, gardens, wooden townhouses and refined traditions.

The city holds many of Japan's most treasured sites. Fushimi Inari Taisha's thousands of vermilion torii gates climb a wooded mountain, Kinkaku-ji's Golden Pavilion shimmers over its pond, and Kiyomizu-dera's wooden stage juts from the hillside above the city. The rock garden of Ryoan-ji and the mossy grounds of Ginkaku-ji invite quiet contemplation.

Top-ranked sights in Kyoto: Fushimi Inari Shrine (Fushimi Inari Taisha), Kinkaku-ji (Golden Pavilion), Kiyomizu-dera Temple.
