Нам очень понравился этот самурайский опыт в Токио! Было невероятно интересно попробовать кюдо (японскую стрельбу из лука) и фехтование. Всё объясняли понятно, а атмосфера была очень дружелюбной и тёплой. Мы из России и не очень хорошо говорим по-английски, поэтому переживали, что многое не поймём. Но нас встретила замечательная Агата, которая на протяжении всего мероприятия переводила сложные моменты, всё объясняла и поддерживала нас. Благодаря ей мы чувствовали себя комфортно и получили огромное удовольствие! Агата — чудесная девушка с потрясающей энергетикой, добротой и искренним желанием помочь. Она сделала наш опыт по-настоящему особенным! ❤️ Как мы поняли, Агата не всегда работает в этом офисе, поэтому советуем написать организаторам в Instagram и уточнить, когда она бывает и можно ли попасть на занятие с её участием. Очень рекомендуем этот опыт всем, кто хочет познакомиться с японскими традициями! И отдельное огромное спасибо Агате за заботу и прекрасное настроение!

We had so much fun learning about kyudo and the history of samurai. The activity was very engaging and pleasantly challenging. It was the perfect addition to our Asakusa day.

L’activité était super cool, l’instructeur est très impliqué et ludique. Malheureusement je trouve que pour 1h c’est très chère et dans la description de l’activité il est écrit que nous allons manipuler le katana et le kyudo, cependant nous n’avons jamais pratiquer de kyudo. Si non le reste était super

Highlights

This 1-hour indoor experience in Asakusa, Tokyo, lets you put on a traditional hakama outfit and become a samurai. After a short introduction to samurai history and a mini game to find out your samurai rank, the real training begins. Choose between kyudo (Japanese archery) with a genuine Japanese bow that may be taller than you, or swordsmanship, where you learn stance and grip with a katana. Bilingual staff explain everything at your level and help you take photos, so it is easy for first-timers and families to enjoy.

Program

Put on a hakama
and become a samurai in Asakusa

The experience starts at an indoor studio in Asakusa, where you put on a traditional samurai hakama set. Outfits are available in various sizes. After a short introduction to samurai history and traditions, test your skills in a fun mini game and find out your samurai rank.

Kyudo option: shoot a Japanese bow taller than you

With the kyudo option, you learn the philosophy and techniques of Japanese archery, a martial art with centuries of history. Traditional Japanese bows are very large and may even be longer than you are tall.

Swordsmanship option: learn katana stance and movement

With the swordsmanship option, you hold a katana and practice correct stance, grip and movement while learning the spirit behind the single-edged sword that symbolizes the samurai. Enjoy mini games and record your progress on video.

Staff guide you through each step and help you take great photos of your warrior experience. Bilingual staff adjust their explanations to your English level, and Japanese snacks are included.

※ Kyudo and swordsmanship are separate options. Please choose the experience you want when booking.
