Private Samurai Training · Kyoto
Samurai training — just your group.
The same 90-minute training with Yushin-sensei, booked privately for your family or friends alone. No strangers, no crowd — just your people, the master, and the dojo.
Book Your Private Session¥120,000 for up to 4 guests · +¥30,000 per additional guest
Why Book Privately
Your family or friends, and the dojo to yourselves.
Our regular sessions welcome up to nine guests at once. Book privately and the session is yours alone — at your own pace, with no one else in the room.
Your Group Only
No sharing the session with strangers. The dojo, the master, and the full 90 minutes belong to your party — up to four guests for one flat price.
Relaxed for Families & Kids
No pressure to keep up with a crowd. Children, beginners, and mixed-ability groups can take their time and simply enjoy it together.
The Same Real Training
Identical to our flagship training — authentic attire, a real katana (iaitō), the foundation kata, a personal exam with the master, and his two-sword (nito) demonstration.
Who It’s For
Made for groups who’d rather be on their own.
Families with children, groups of friends, couples, or anyone who would simply rather train privately than join a public session. If you want to relax and enjoy it among your own people, this is the way.

Frequently Asked
Questions before you book.
The training itself is the same 90-minute program. The difference is that the session is private — booked exclusively for your group, instead of shared with up to nine other guests. You get the dojo and the master to yourselves.
The flat price of ¥120,000 covers up to four guests. Each additional guest beyond four is ¥30,000. Just let us know your group size when you enquire.
Yes — the private format is ideal for families. Children can take part and go at their own pace without keeping up with a larger group. If you have very young children, let us know and we’ll advise.
None at all. Most guests have never held a katana before. Yushin-sensei guides everyone step by step, in English.
