Train at Miyagino Stable’s former Osaka camp, an authentic sumo facility once used by legendary Yokozuna Hakuho and other professional sumo wrestlers.
Unlike simply watching sumo, this hands-on experience lets you practice the traditional exercises used by wrestlers, including shiko, koshiwari, suriashi, and teppo. Learn about sumo’s history, traditions, etiquette, and rules with step-by-step instruction in English.
Wear a traditional mawashi, put your new skills into action in a friendly sumo match, and take commemorative photos inside this historic training venue. No previous sumo or sports experience is required, making the activity welcoming and enjoyable for complete beginners.
