Sumo Wrestling in Houston!
For those who are not familiar with us, I founded and run the only sumo group in Houston, I just wanted to share a quick video that one of our members made, and if any of you enjoy sumo and are in the greater Houston area, I hope that you'll come to a practice session (Keiko) with us!
You may have seen us at some food festivals and such, we've done collaboration events with Otaku Food Festival, Tokyo Night Festival, Anime Houston, Collect-A-Con, Night Market at the Asia Society Texas Center, and many more!
I want to note that our Sumo club is for EVERYONE, you don't have to be a huge person to do it, most of our members are actually not all that large! Many of our guys are considered "small". We don't have any active women members, we actively seek to have more women members! Also, some of our members do it just for fun, some want to compete and do compete, while others just do it for the workout and the fun of it! (However the practices are entirely made for competition training)
Sumo is the ultimate contest of might, a bout where two enter a ring and only one remains within it seconds later. The Way of Sumo teaches its students to stand their ground and maintain perfect discipline and form to meet whatever challenge they face. This is Sumodo or "The Way of Sumo".
If you have any questions about Sumo Wrestling at all please let me know and we can discuss it!
Thank you very much!
