Overview

What makes this activity unique is its deep connection to Bushidō, the guiding philosophy of the samurai. More than an introduction to sword techniques, this experience immerses travelers in the values that shaped Japan’s warriors.

Bushidō teaches discipline, respect, sincerity, and focus—principles that extend beyond combat. Every movement practiced reflects these ideals, turning swordsmanship into a form of self-improvement.

Set in the preserved setting of a feudal lord’s retirement mansion, untouched by modern structures, this experience fosters an authentic connection to history. Capturing striking images within this environment transports participants into the world of the samurai.

This rare opportunity allows travelers to embody the samurai spirit and connect with a philosophy that continues to inspire across generations.
