What you can expect

Meet your local guide at the Shin-Kawasaki station and head to a real sumo stable, which was officially used until 2022. Learn about the unique lifestyle and customs of the sumo world, followed by a tour to see the dining room, bath, and practice area.

Afterwards, have a seat right in front of the sumo ring to watch a morning sumo practice session. See how the morning practice begins, what kind of movements are used, and why. Afterwards, you'll have the opportunity to try out these movements for yourself.

Next, your guide will explain sumo rules, moves, and techniques and the sumo wrestlers show how a real sumo match begins. Afterwards, those who wish to participate will have the opportunity to fight with a sumo wrestler as if it were a real match.

After the match, eat chankonabe some chankonabe, a dish that makes sumo wrestler's body big. Make chicken dumplings with the wrestlers eat together around a table that was actually used in the sumo room.

While eating lunch, take the opportunity to ask questions and enjoy conversation with the wrestlers. You can also take pictures and make memorial handprints on paper.
