Токио: Самурайско преживяване с опция за истински мечове

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An unforgettable samurai experience — truly one of a kind If you’re visiting Japan and want something beyond typical tourism, Shidenryu is an absolute must. From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with genuine warmth. The team is deeply passionate about preserving samurai culture, and that passion is felt throughout every moment. The training was both physically engaging and deeply meaningful. The instruction was patient, clear, and encouraging — this is an authentic experience led by people who have dedicated their lives to this art. I left with incredible memories and a profound respect for Japanese martial tradition. The kind of experience that stays with you long after you return home. To the team — thank you from the bottom of my heart. Hope to see you again someday!

instructor: we had an amazing sensi naoto experience: what a wonderful experience to lean basic samurai class for beginners

this was a last minute decision book for me but if I knew the experience and the kindness I was shown this is an experience to put into your itinerary. Instructor hiryu shiden was very detailed and can tell he wanted u to truly experience the samurai spirit. An experience everyone who comes to Japan should have!

this was a really special experience. I was able to have a one on one experience and experience an authentic samurai experience.

experience: This by far was one of the highlights of my trip to Japan. The chance to live out my samurai dreams whilst entertaining a 17 year old, perfect!

this experience was truly one in a life time. my friends and I really enjoyed ourselves. the training lesson was fun and the instructors were very friendly. Our guide met us at the pick up station and we walked to the training facility while exploring parts of the city. I will do this activity again

This is an amazing experience not to be missed! We did quite a few whilst in Japan for three weeks and this was by far the best. Hiryu and his colleague were perfect hosts. Hiryu took us through the techniques of using a Samurai Sword, the right way to sheath and unsheath and following that he granted us the special opportunity to cut bamboo with a 700 year old Samurai sword. It was unreal.

It’s quite unusual to be able to handle a centuries-old katana. Here we were able to use one for tameshigiri, a chance I could not pass up. Our class today was small so we had plenty of time; even a 13-year-old was able to follow along and succeed, thanks to the great instruction and the sword’s own weighty “presence.” As for the calligraphy, I had forgotten how tough it is to write well with ink and brush, yikes! I’m glad they let me practice first. The tea was lovely. Learned a lot and had a great time. PS. We had a moment of panic at the meet-up location, but we were able to call the staff (check the email) and sort everything out.

we had an amazing time and had so much fun learning about the history, culture, sword skills, calligraphy, and tea. The instructor was great and his helper was too. Unforgetable memories thanks to these two.

A well-organized experience that felt very thoughtful. The instructor explained the principles behind samurai kata and sword techniques clearly, and the calligraphy and tea ceremony added meaningful context. Calm, informative, and worth doing if you’re interested in traditional Japanese culture
