Tokyo Prefecture Tours

The experiences I provide are not a form of entertainment or performance. Some experiences do not offer a true Samurai experience because foreign visitors are not familiar with Japanese culture. I believe this should not be the case and teach authentic Japanese swordsmanship and spirit. For those who wish to have a proper experience, or want to study authentic kenjutsu, please come join one of my lessons. The Toyama school of swordsmanship was originally taught by the old Japanese army and was the last Kenjutsu to be used in actual combat. So,Toyama school was developed by combining the specialties of various sword schools. 【attention】 If you would like to use this experience for interviews or various social networking sites, please let us know in advance. If you are informed on the day of the event, it will cause inconvenience to other guests. We will reserve the room for a private party (an additional charter fee will be charged), so please be sure to let us know.
