About Art of Swordsmanship: Waves of Techniques - Takase Dojo

Step into the world of samurai and explore the ancient swordsmanship of Japan!


Details

The Takase Dojo, located in Tokyo, is a training center for fight choreography and martial arts action for films, TV dramas, and stage productions. It has several professional instructors who have participated in the production of well-known works such as "The Last Samurai," "WASABI," and the TV drama "Shogun." In addition to professional actors, there are general courses suitable for children and adults, allowing participants to understand the charm of martial arts movements and fight scenes in drama. Here, we recommend an experiential course to learn the movements and etiquette of samurai. Participants can change into traditional hakama and kimono, learning the proper techniques for using a Japanese sword, as well as the authentic portrayals of both the slayer and the slain. You can also challenge yourself with simple improvisational theater under the guidance of professional fight choreographers. At the end, you can take a commemorative photo in samurai attire. This is sure to be a valuable opportunity for travelers to engage with traditional Japanese culture.

Highlights
