Sumo Fighting Experience

At the indicated time, we'll meet at the Yokozuna Tonkatsu Dosukoi Tanaka centre, where we'll take part in a sumo wrestlers' training while we tell you about this typical Japanese combat.

Sumo is the national sport of Japan, involving numerous traditional rituals both before and after the wrestling. Learn about the history, movements, training, and tournament associated with this sport.

You'll understand the strict routine of the wrestlers and the practices during training sessions. You'll also learn some basic moves and test them against one of the teachers.

Participating in a sumo training session offers a chance to learn about the rituals and costumes specific to Japan's national sport and appreciate the daily sacrifices of those who practice it.

After the training, we'll head to the restaurant attached to the centre for an authentic Chanko Nabe lunch, a hearty stew featuring rice, meat or fish, potatoes, and vegetables.

The activity will conclude at the restaurant after 2 hours of experience.
