You can actually use a Japanese sword, which is said to be the soul of the samurai, and try cutting it. The experience of touching the soul of the samurai will surely transform you. Tennen Rishin-ryu swordsmanship, which began in the Edo period, is still passed down today, and at the Tennen Rishin-ryu Hino Dojo, students of the school hone their swordsmanship skills. You too can learn Tennen Rishin-ryu at an actual dojo. The swordsmen who trained Tennen Rishin-ryu in Hino formed the Shinsengumi, which was said to be the strongest group of swordsmen at the end of the Edo period, and were called the last samurai. By experiencing swordsmanship in Hino, the hometown of the Shinsengumi, you can feel the history and culture of the last samurai. The experience program is led by Masao Inoue, a descendant of Shinsengumi leader Genzaburo Inoue and chairman of the Tennen Rishin-ryu Hino Dojo.

閑静な住宅街の中に新築の一戸建てが道場となっており、チャイムを鳴らす事なくドアを開けて2階へ入るまではここで大丈夫なのかとドキドキしましたが、道場では増渕さんが優しく迎え入れてくれたあと袴の履き方からゴザを丸めた棒の切り方まで親切丁寧に教えていただきながら体験を進めていただいたおかげて、失敗する事なく畳を切ることができて嬉しかったです。教えて頂いた井上先生、増渕先生もとても優しく、終始楽しく体験させていただきありがとうございました。新撰組関連の演舞などがある際にはまた観に行かせて頂きたいと思います。
