Reviews
This by far is the best experience we've had in Japan. The instructor is very entertaining and explained all the Samurai moves with passion. He made us feel comfortable and always encouraged us even when we weren't doing the right moves. His assistant was all smiles and also very patient with us. The one who was taking the videos and photos was amazing. She captured us in action really well.
The staff and instructor was very accommodating, me and my wife went here together to experience Japan culture. I'm a fan of Demon Slayer and Ghost of Tsushima so learning the way of the Samurai in a fun and but also funny way was a great experience! The location was also great and quiet neighborhood. I would love to do it again! They will also help you get lots of photos, in our case we let them use our phones so that they could take photos and videos for us.
instructors were very nice and instructional, you start with getting to pick your robe, then they give you your pants and tie on your belt, very understandable English and very helpful with correcting form. they have tripods so they can record the experience for you and you get to take a picture at the end with the teachers and more around the dojo.
what an amazing experience! this was our favorite activity in Japan. our instructor were AMAZING. they were so friendly, patient and knowledgeable. this experience is one of a kind and you NEED to book this. my husband was living his dream here. thank you for everything!
We had a superb experience at the Samurai Theatre. The Samurai first demonstrated, then taught us how to do all the steps. Even the kimono and hakama dress was very good condition and quality. We simply enjoyed every bit.
What an amazing experience!!! The sensei tries to explain himself as best as possible in English, camera-chan is an incredible help for photos and videos. They are kind, fun and the experience is very dynamic. It is worth every penny.
If you enjoy samurai culture or are a martial artist, you will enjoy this experience. The instructors are knowledgeable in their art and know the general history of their dojo. Their English is ok, but they will always try their best to answer any questions you might have about their art or dojo. If you practice martial arts, you will find yourselves in familiar territory when they teach you how to wield a katana. Highly recommend to get yourself immersed in samurai culture.
absolute must do! Highly recommended! we had the best time with this team, it was so fun. we laughed so hard, felt so comfortable and loved every minute, did not want it to end. we got to pick our beautiful kimonos and lean basic samurai kills. did not want to leave 😊 thank you team for the best expireance ever
