Sumo wrestlers and their apprentices engage in daily morning practice to uphold Japan’s cherished national sport, sumo, and ensure its legacy for future generations.
Closer than the official matches at the Kokugikan, spectators can witness the wrestlers’ breathing and facial expressions up close, and experience the sounds of their bodies colliding during the intense morning training sessions.
The coach’s voice is commanding and firm, which might be startling at first. However, this is a testament to the trust he has cultivated with his students and the rikishi who train alongside him, and it is this trust that sustains the Ikazuchi Sumo Stable.
This tour offers a unique experience that even residents of Japan rarely encounter. A special brochure has been prepared for this tour, designed to enhance your understanding of sumo.
If you wish to support the rikishi after practice, please consider leaving them a tip.
