Samurai Unit TAIGI is a samurai sword performance group based in the town around the castle, Hiroshima, and is introducing the Japanese culture to the world. They perform and teach samurai sword fighting, including for actors in period dramas. Here, you can learn from a period drama specialist how to hold and swing a sword as well as how to fight with it. In addition, you can feel like a samurai by putting on kimono and hakama (a traditional male skirt). There are also optional services such as taking photos in costume and/or shooting a “samurai movie” provided, which will definitely be your memorable souvenir of life for sure. On request, they can make a variety of arrangements. For a more impressive experience, choose a location with ambience, such as a local Shinto shrine. Or, make unforgettable travel memories while interacting with locals. Large groups are also welcome. Contact OFFICE TAIGI to arrange your own experience! Adults and children alike can enjoy becoming samurais. L...
