Becoming a Samurai in Kyoto / Kyoto Samurai Experience

I had a GREAT experience in Kyoto using an authentic Katana and learning the Bushido way. It was an exciting way to connect with history and do some inner reflection.

This is Legendary bro!! Keep experiencing & thanks for sharing a chapter!

Thanks big bro for tapping in!!

Really good for someone (I’m guessing) that doesn’t regularly practice iaido. Would have been more interesting if they let you do cuts other than the kesagiri, like the gyakugesa or suihei.

[@ManOfProminence]

I have never practiced prior to this! I really appreciate this compliment!!

How long did the whole experience last? I want to go to the one in Tokyo but I don't understand time management. On the page it says 75 minutes for the katana but I don't know if those 75 minutes include the basic ticket that contains the museum and other activities.

With the Kyoto experience on TripAdvisor, the entire activity is like 90min. You really only spend about 15min with the Katana and 15min prior to that learning how to properly use the wooden sword in its place. The other 60mins seems to be split 30 & 30 with different aspects of understanding the history and traditions that come along with the responsibilities of being a Samurai.
