Stable Mission
Musashigawa stable is a stable with a long history, tradition and achievements inherited from the previous master, the 14th Musashigawa stablemaster.
Sumo is an ancient Japanese traditional martial art and a divine ritual. While respecting the historical value of sumo, we will always strive to evolve and become a stable that breathes new life.
It is through the harsh and rigorous training that a healthy mind is formed, and by cultivating a healthy body that can withstand the daily training, which we will able to raise wrestlers who are both feared and respected by the people.
We believe that it is our mission as Musashigawa stable, to raise and achieve the top title “Yokozuna”.
We at Musashigawa stable, will upheld the responsibility and as evangelists, to protect the sumo culture and Japan traditions.
