Description

Hey there!


If you've ever been curious about what it's really like to live as a rikishi (sumo wrestler), I'd love to show you around their world. We'll chat about everything—from what they eat and where they hang out, to where they actually get that special wax for their iconic hairstyles. It's a fantastic peek into one of the world's oldest sports, and I can't wait to share its secrets with you.

Here are a few of the spots we'll explore together:
The Kokugikan: The massive stadium where all the sumo action happens.
The Sumo Museum: We'll pop in here to dive a bit deeper into the sport's incredible history.
Edo-Noren: A really cool spot that feels just like stepping back in time to the Edo period.
Ekoin Shrine: Here, I'll share the surprisingly deep and tragic history behind professional sumo.
