Are you interested in Sumo? Sumo is a Japanese national sport. It is very sacred and most powerful. Let’s go to see the Sumo training at a stable! It is a valuable experience to be able to see serious training right in front of you and can feel the breath and heat up close, which you can’t feel in a big game.
What you’ll do
The details of multiple workouts are quietly provided by your guide, so no doubts will arise. You can see it closer than the matches and you will feel the sound of the fight and the passion of the wrestlers.
ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー
We will meet at the station and arrive at the sumo stable in about 7minutes on foot. The destination changes depending on the day. Watch the practice for about 1 and a half to 2 hours. This is a sacred national sport, so there are many things to be aware of. Please read carefully.
●We leave on time. We don’t wait for late guests.
●If you have a cold or infectious disease on the day, please cancel your participation.
●You cannot eat or drink in the stable. This includes candy, gum or so.
●We basically don’t talk during the tour.
●Please set your cell phone to silent mode. You can take photos, please install a silent camera on your smartphone that does not make a shutter sound.
●You might be able to take a photo with wrestlers after the event. However, this is not guaranteed, so it depends on the situation.
●Avoid revealing clothing. Please wear clothing that hides the tattoo as much as possible.
If these are not followed, you will be asked to go outside temporarily. Sumo wrestling matches are held far away many times a year. In addition, there are other training camps, so the time they in Tokyo is less. Please don’t date requests.
Two days before or the day before, suddenly recruitment of experience participation starts. Please check my calendar page or Instagram / Facebook @nicotourjapan and don’t miss a chance!
