SUMO Wrestlers' Morning Training Viewing

Details

Let's visit Sumo stable and enjoy to watch Sumo wrestler's training very close!! Sumo stable is where Sumo wrestlers reside and devote themselves for hard trainings everyday. Since Sumo is not just a sport but it was originally started as a secret ritual in ancient time, you will find unique and amazing protocols even in their everyday practices. Their morning training is filled with spirits and tense, while they sometime show their natural smiles just as young sweet men! By watching their sincere practice, you will definitely learn Sumo deeply and get its spirit, which is very origin of "Japan"!!

I strongly believe that meeting people, going local, knowing stories behind artifacts makes your trip "SUPER GOOD :-)" and I am more than happy if I can be of your help for that kind of JAPAN Trip!!

No. Japan is not a perfect country, I admit that. However, there are still so many beautiful things that I would like to introduce you as "JAPAN" and share with you!! Please enjoy your stay in JAPAN and please share your experiences from this one small "not perfect but beautiful" country with your friends and family after you safely go back to your home. People around you will, then, have interests in JAPAN as well and that's what we call "the grass-roots international exchange," don't you think? :-) I myself want to see the world and I want you to see JAPAN!!
