[Tokyo] Sumo practice tour for foreign tourist! Don't worry, guide will be familiar with sumo.

Key Information

Description

A tour to observe a full-fledged practice of Sumo wrestling, Japan's national sport♪ There are various rules for observing Sumo wrestling practice, and if you are the only one watching, you will often be warned off by the officials and wrestlers, and in the worst case scenario. They are often forced to leave. At SumoPro, we always have one of our staff members (former sumo wrestlers) or a guide who is familiar with sumo accompany us when we observe a practice. In order to avoid making our customers feel uneasy, we will be able to come between the sumo stable and the customers and allow them to tour with peace of mind. In addition, a dedicated guide will provide written commentary during the rehearsal. If you just watch the rigorous but monotonous practice, you might get bored with it, but we will explain in detail what they are doing and what they are talking about. We have planned this event in a way that will allow you to have fun and understand "Sumo". Please feel free to use our service. *Normally, private speaking is strictly prohibited during practice tours, but our interpreters will be available to explain the current practice content, the master's conversations, explanations of initiatives, and answer customer questions during the practice tour in written communication (in English). I'll have it. Additionally, after the training session, you will be able to communicate with the current wrestlers through the guide, and we will hold a Q&A session until your questions are resolved. Unlike a practice tour where you just watch the practice and then finish, you will be accompanied by a guide who specializes in sumo and will guide you through to the end. ~ Procedure of the day ~ ① Please inform us of the location, meeting time, and precautions of the sumo stable you will be visiting by the day before ② On the day, meet at the entrance of the sumo room *Please be punctual ③ Observe the practice for about 40 minutes to 1 hour.
