Cultural Experiences

La nourriture était excellente, on a pu goûter à plein de spécialités locales; sashimi, crevettes et poisson en tempura....L'anguille était hyper bonne. Les desserts (mochi) délicieux et entraient quand même malgré le fa... moreit que nous étions vraiment repues. Le parcours de nuit était parfait. Allez-y sans hésiter.

We really enjoyed the experience. Very nice and friendly atmosphere and they shared with us many details from their history and life.

It was exactly what I was expecting. The bootsman was perfect

This was my second time here with my son and my friend from Japan joined for her first time and we all loved it. We had an English speaking instructor who was very helpful and showed us step-by-step what we needed to do... more to make our design how we wanted it. We practiced on a separate glass and that was so helpful to improve our technique. The instructor gave us additional tips along the way. It's so nice to take home such a unique product from our time spent in Japan.

My friend and I had a great time at the Okinawa Kenpo Karate Dojo. As beginners with little to no experience in karate, we found the sensei who facilitated the class to be very patient while teaching us the fundamentals ... moreof the art.

We booked the appointment a few weeks in advance through the Veltra website and were able to pay the fee ahead of time. You can rent a “gi” on site for 1,000 JPY in cash per set.

The location was also easy to find. We used Google Maps to locate the dojo, and it took us straight to the exact spot in Nago. If you go as a group, you should definitely carpool because the parking lot for the dojo is limited.

Make sure to be present & have fun. After our session they took pictures of us with different weapons and poses.

Overall, It was a beginner-friendly experience that we would recommend to people of all ages, regardless of their familiarity with karate. We were honored to be taught by Sensei Matsuda Tatsunori and to experience the beauty of traditional Okinawan karate.

My teenage daughter and I had a wonderful time at the workshop! We enjoyed every minute of it and are delighted to have a great souvenir to take home with us.
