Tokyo Ryogoku Sumo Morning Practice + Photo Shoot with Wrestlers

Immerse yourself in the fascinating world of sumo, a uniquely Japanese sport with a rich history spanning over a millennium. Sumo wrestlers uphold ancient traditions, living in dedicated stables and undergoing intense daily training to perfect their craft. While watching a sumo match is exciting, truly understanding the sport requires deeper insight into its customs, discipline, and way of life.  

During this tour, you’ll have the rare opportunity to enter a sumo stable and witness a rigorous morning practice session, an experience usually closed to the public. Since private conversation is not allowed during practice, we provide exclusive supplementary materials to enhance your understanding of sumo’s history and significance.  

After observing the intense training, we’ll take a leisurely stroll through Ryogoku, the heartland of sumo. This historic district is home to significant sumo-related landmarks, offering a deeper connection to Japan’s national sport.
