Podcast: Becoming a Samurai in One Day – Tokyo Katana Training

from Alex Travels Far · host Alex

Train like a real samurai in Tokyo — wear a traditional kimono, learn katana techniques, and dive into Japanese culture through a powerful hands-on experience. In this Japan vlog, I take on the ultimate samurai training experience in Tokyo. From sipping matcha in a calming tea ceremony to putting on a full kimono and learning how to wield a katana sword in a real dojo, this is a deep cultural journey — not a tourist gimmick. It’s discipline. Focus. Precision. And yes — they handed me a real katana and told me to slice through a target.But before that? I had to earn it.💬 Want personalized travel advice?
