Samurai-Training Tokio Asakusa

Loved the experience. Jiro and Akari were very polite and fun. The experience was immersive and fun. The photos they took were also very good. Highly recommend this to someone visiting Tokyo!

Our family had an amazing time at the Samurai training course. I brought my two boys (ages 14 and 12), and it turned out to be one of the best activities we’ve done together. Jiro sensei was a fantastic instructor — knowledgeable, patient, and engaging. He walked us through the importance of respect and discipline before moving into basic maneuvers and various finishing techniques. He struck a great balance between keeping things educational and keeping it fun, which isn’t easy when you’re teaching both adults and kids. What really made this special was how much it brought us together as a family. All three of us were learning something completely new, cheering each other on, and laughing through the process. It’s rare to find an activity that genuinely engages everyone regardless of age. A nice bonus — they took great photos and videos throughout the session, which gave us wonderful keepsakes to look back on. Highly recommend this for families, couples, or anyone looking for a unique and memorable experience. We’d absolutely do it again.

Instructions for the meeting place were provided but Google send me to the wrong place. Look for the front of the building. The class was great. He provided information on the sword and defense. He provided the samurai clothes and we snap some pictures/ video during the class. You will leave learning some skills and smile on your face.

We had such a fun time! We were a family of four, and we were the only group in training. We had a lot of fun dressing up, and learning Samurai fighting skills.

Jiro sensei was so friendly, energetic and fun. He made it a wonderful experience. One of the best experiences during our trip. Highly recommend.

Great experience for my son and I. Highly recommend as a family experience. Jiro was an excellent trainer!

Judo-Sensei was a very good teacher and a lot of fun to work with. The experience was fun and he took many good photographs and videos.

I took part in an absolutely amazing activity in Tokyo: wearing a kimono and learning sword combat techniques. From the very start, Jiro, our instructor, was incredible—patient, skilled at teaching, extremely kind, and genuinely pleasant. You can really feel that he loves what he does and wants everyone to have a great experience. After dressing me in a kimono, he taught me different postures and movements inspired by Kendo. And the best part… the final choreography! I got to perform a full, stylish sequence that was filmed. There was also a photo session, and both the photos and the video were given to me at the end. An amazing souvenir! I truly loved this activity: fun, immersive, welcoming, and unique. Honestly, it’s one of the most enjoyable experiences I’ve had in Tokyo. I recommend it 100%, whether you’re passionate about Japanese culture or simply looking for a memorable moment during your trip!

Personal fun and informative. I took the lesson iwith my son and we both enjoyed the experience immensely. We also enjoyed the teacher. It was personal and well done.

It was so much fun and interesting. They did a photo shoot before we got started and then we got into the samurai fun. The people that ran this was so awesome and helpful.
