Experience Bushido(the way of the warrior) while wearing a dogi and being taught directly by Mr. Matsunaga, the 18th head of the family who inherited the style of Niten Ichiryu from the strongest samurai in Japan, Miyamoto Musashi.

Enjoy matcha green tea and Japanese sweets, while learning about the spirituality of Iaido, which is not only about winning a battle, but also mastering swordsmanship to protect.

At the end, you will receive a samurai training completion certificate and an original tenugui hand towel with your name written on it.

Because the experience is held right next to Kumamoto Castle, you can enjoy the castle before or after your experience.
