Most Japanese people watch Sumo either on TV or at the Sumo Stadium. It is very difficult to find a Japanese who have watched the Sumo-wrestler’s morning training!!
So, this tour will welcome you to a very special and unique experience to watch their training from a very close distance!! I’m sure you will be overwhelmed and surprised to see the intensity of their morning practice.
If you are luckly, Sumo wrestlers will take photos with you after the practice.
Even if you miss to see a Sumo match, this experience of watching their training will give you an idea of how the Sumo competition is like and what a Sumo-wrestler’s day is like. We will explain more to you about the very interesting Sumo world.

Not to be missed - The attacks were very impressive !
The explanations of our guide were very clear and useful. To be close to these sumo guys, who are so young in fact, has been quite an experience.

Sumo Stable Practice - We enjoyed this. Good guide. One hour is more than sufficient, however. The practices get a bit repetitive but overall a good experience.

Incredible Experience - Inok was an amazing guide. He was friendly and extremely knowledgeable about everything Sumo. We were very lucky and got to see all of the Sumo wrestlers including the two D2 wrestlers training at the stable and the owner was there as well. We highly recommend for anyone coming to Tokyo as you can’t see this anywhere else in the world.
