What To Expect
If you want to watch the Sumo wrestlers up close, this is one of the closest you can get!
Let’s watch the wrestler’s morning practice right next to the ring and feel the intense and serious atmosphere. The sound of wrestlers colliding to each other, their breath and the scent of the fragrance they wear are something that you can never feel by watching any videos.
[What makes this tour so special?]
While all Sumo Morning Practice tours are special and unique experiences, what sets this tour apart from others is that you are actually able to eat Chanko Nabe made by real sumo wrestlers in the stable! Step into the life of the wrestlers and see what they do and eat on a day to day basis. This is an opportunity that you will not find elsewhere and it will be a memory you are sure to cherish for years to come.

It is considered impolite to show the soles of feet to the wrestlers. Please watch the practice silently and respectfully. Please be very careful not to interfere with the sumo wrestlers concentration.. The practice/tour may be a bit shorter or longer than expected depending on the content of the practice. Depending on the day, the morning practice schedule may vary, and therefore the duration of the tour may be slightly affected by this, especially when there is a Grand Tournament coming up. Please be aware that the practice may end earlier than usual, meaning the tour will be shorter than mentioned.. If you are vegetarian, can only eat halal food, or have any other food restrictions, unfortunately, we will not be able to change the menu.. Some sumo stables may not have chairs. You may have to sit on the floor. Please note in advance..
