Highlights

Sumo, a revered Japanese martial art and combat sport, boasts a rich tradition dating back to ancient times. You can sit in a chair and observe. (Usually, visitors sit on the ground.) Embark on a unique tour that grants you exclusive access to witness sumo wrestlers engaged in rigorous practice, offering a rare chance to capture the moment with them. An English-speaking guide will be available at the meeting place, the temple “Ryushoin”. You will be able to see the techniques of sumo wrestlers up close. Delve into the intensity of daily training for professional Sumo wrestlers, providing a rare and intimate glimpse into their dedication and discipline. Explore the renowned Takasago stable, distinguished for producing six yokozuna (the highest rank in sumo, often referred to as grand champions) and eight ozeki (the second-highest rank, signifying accomplished sumo wrestlers). This solidifies its status as one of the most prestigious sumo stables globally.
