A Legendary Samurai Experience with Headmaster Ryo ⚔️ - Such a fun and meaningful initiation into the art of the sword! Ryo, the headmaster, was warm, funny, and incredibly skilled. He made everyone feel confident and engaged from start to finish. A perfect mix of culture, energy, and fun, highly recommend if you’re in Tokyo! Thank you, Ryo sensei !

Amazing private family Samurai training - Ryo was an amazing instructor for our English speaking family of 5 (adults and teens). We did the private Samurai experience, which took an hour. We dressed like samurai, each selected our own real swords and walked through a series of actual training moves (Ryo is 22 generations samurai). Then with foam swords the family got to fight each other and the winner one a shurikein. Amazing time. 5/5 for all of us.
