You will learn how to draw a sword, hold a sword, swing a sword, and retract a sword. After learning basic sword usage, they practice a simple chanbara (sword fight).
Then we will try to exterminate bad guys to the music! You can take videos with your smart phone, take pictures with the samurai, and have a great samurai time.

We went through all basic moves with the sword and then combined them into a battle scene. We did multiple scenes of mock-up duels. I had a lot of fun and must recommend you to go and try it out

Small venue, and I was lucky to be the only person who signed up for experience that morning. so I had a tutor and a sparring partner. We went through basic sword moves, linked them into a sequence and filmed a final sequence sparring one of the Samurai. I had a knee injury and despite that could easily complete the sequence. Other centres don't even cater to solo travellers and this was something I was very keen to experience. Even though I was a solo traveller they made me feel very welcome. Easy to find venue. They were on the street to greet me and came out to wave bye. Very friendly!Super expérience, dans la joie et la bonne humeur . Équipe vraiment au top. Je recommande fortement cette activité .
Super expérience, dans la joie et la bonne humeur . Équipe vraiment au top. Je recommande fortement cette activité .期待以上のパフォーマンスでした。鍛え抜かれたサムライの俊敏で無駄のない美しい動き、理にかなった足さばきなど、間近に見ることができて圧倒されました。切腹のやり方には訳があること、抜刀・納刀の動作も実際に体験できて、いろいろな質問にも答えていただき、たくさんのことを学ばせていただきました。日本文化の素晴らしさを再確認できました。侍を見たい！という外人を連れて行きたいと思います。
