Highly Recommend - Fun and informative. Show up hungry. You get to make a lot of sushi but you can't take it with you.

A fantastic and fun experience! - What a fabulous, fun and informative experience hosted by lovely, friendly staff. It was a pleasure to meet the sumos, Ryuu and Kai, to have them demonstrate their skills and to experience the wrestling, afterwards we got to have photos taken with them. This was a highlight of our trip to Japan. The studio is super easy to reach by metro.

A fun introduction to Sumo - Having no experience with Sumo, this was a fun and informative introduction to the tradition and sport. The staff were friendly and helpful. The wrestlers (retired) were clearly showmen who enjoyed sharing the experience. They were patient, enthusiastic, and fun. They spent a lot of time interacting with the audience and taking pictures. A good intro and a lot of fun.
