A grand time

This was an AMAZING experience, our instructor was very informative, and more importantly very fun!!! We had a blast and genuinely learned so much. Would highly recommend this experience to any travelers of Japan or anyone who is interested in learning more about ninja culture on a beginner level.

Taking this session was awesome. My professor was also awesome. Very patient, nice, and informative. I had a great time and gained a nice amount of knowledge and skills in regards to ninjas/Samurai. I was also able to get some good footage and was guided and encouraged through every lesson

A fun thing to do in Tokyo

Such a pleasant experience! We enjoyed every minute of it, the sensei was friendly and patient and made the class fun

Great experience all round

Wade_C, May 2024
Was great fun and he knew his stuff. Good English so it made it easy to understand. The ninja stars and blow dart were fun as well especially how far away we were from the target.

Great class. Good English.

Joshuah_T, Jul 2023
He spoke relatively good English and was able to explain things. He taught us how to put on the ninja attire and how to use a variety of weapons. Overall a very good experience. Make sure to bring “workout” clothes to wear under your ninja outfit.

Kids 6-8 loved it!

Lily_S, Apr 2023
It was my kids favorite activity. We only booked a last minute one hour class and they wanted more. Definitely book a two hour. The one hour didn’t include sword training.

Great learnings - Awesome teaching
