Itinerary

About the program
In this tour, guests are given the once-in-a-life opportunity to watch professional sumo wrestlers train in a genuine sumo stable. As part of the tour experience you will be accompanied by a professional guide, who will detail for you the many aspects behind traditional sumo. You will also witness sumo training techniques and rituals, as well as a few practice matches.

Depending on the session/stable, the training session is expected to proceed as follows:
1. Basic Sumo Exercises: Exercises to strengthen legs, hips, and upper body, as well as muscle building regimes.
2. Practice Matches: Serious bouts performanced between two sumo wrestlers at a time. A must-see part of the training!
3. After the session: You may have the chance to take photos with the wrestlers (schedule depending).
