About this experience
The Family-Friendly Samurai Sword Experience is a workshop in Shinjuku, Tokyo, running approximately 60 minutes and designed for participants aged 3 and above. Rooted in the traditions of Japan's samurai culture, the session covers the fundamentals of sword handling, including grip, posture, and basic movement sequences, in a format that works for both children and adults. Costumes are provided, with participants dressing in a kimono-style top and hakama before the practical element begins, giving families a grounded introduction to the clothing and customs associated with the samurai. The session is led by an instructor who keeps the pace accessible for younger participants while still giving adults a meaningful engagement with the techniques. Families practice sword movements together in a structured, safe setting, with time built in for photos in full attire. Rather than a passive demonstration, the format is participatory throughout. For families exploring things to do in Tokyo, this workshop offers a hands-on cultural activity that sits outside the usual museum or sightseeing circuit. Booking covers the full 60-minute session, costume hire, and use of practice props, with no additional equipment required from participants.
