Once your reservation is confirmed, you will receive an email. Please be sure to confirm. This experience can accommodate up to 15 participants. During this experience, you will receive a lecture on Japanese swords, learn kata (cutting techniques), practice sparring, test-fire a bow and arrow, and try slashing with a mock sword. During the test-slash, you will slash multiple targets while moving with the mock sword. Slashing while moving is extremely difficult. Please experience the difficulty for yourself! Your instructor will be Yoshioki Sumida, assistant instructor of the All Japan Toyama-ryu Iaido Federation. With over 27 years of experience, he has taught at overseas branches in the United States, Europe, and Hong Kong. He is one of the very few instructors in the world who has deeply mastered and continues to pass on both kenjutsu and yabusame. Iai will teach you how to handle the sword, gekken will teach you distance from your opponent and attack/defense, and drawing the sword will teach you how to hold the blade. ~Schedule: Time may vary depending on the number of participants~ ① Demonstration (3 minutes) ② Lecture on swords (20 minutes) ③ Changing into training clothes (10 minutes) ④ Iai lesson (20 minutes) ⑤ Kendo lesson (20 minutes) ⑥ Archery lesson (20 minutes) ⑦ Sword test (20 minutes) ⑧ Certificate of Inka (5 minutes) ⑨ Changing into casual clothes (10 minutes)
It's 100% worth the money and not a tourist trap. The instructor, Sumida Sensei, was very patient and carefully taught me how to handle a katana. In the end, the improvement was visible. I started as a newbie, and at the end of the class, I was able to cut a tatami mat, bringing me a great sense of achievement. Really is worth a try!

日本とサムライが大好きなドイツから観光に来ていた友人に楽しんでもらって良い思い出を…と思いお伺いしましたが、先生も温かくフレンドリーに接して下さり、とても丁寧に教えて頂き良かったです。 安全に切り合うための間合いや太刀筋、刀裁きを教えて頂きながらやるので、チャンバラ好きな子どもには、ぜひ体験してもらって安全にチャンバラごっこで遊んでほしいなぁ…とも思いました。 もちろん、ドイツの友人は大喜びで、日本が好きなあまりに浴衣や足袋や刀まで持っていたり、時代劇も観ているので、教えて頂いても吸収が早く、先生が「ふつうは初心者にはここまでやらないんですが…」と、いろいろな殺陣をやらせてくださり、本当にサービス精神の旺盛な有難く、とっても楽しい体験をさせて頂きました。 本当にとっても優しく語りかけて下さり、教えて下さるのですが、ひとたび演技に入ると眼光も変わり、刀が空気を切る音が素晴らしかったです。 本日は、本当にありがとうございました。

Our ancestors were shinobi samurai who started to serve Tokugawa Ieyasu (the first shogun of the Tokugawa Shogunate) in 1582. The clan served the shogunate for 265 years. In 1868, the clan declined the invitation from the Meiji Government and became independent. We are the only lasting shinobi clan in Japan. We invite you to come to our clan dojo where real master practitioner and professional interpreters take charge of all workshops and seminars.
