I’m Shogo, a Kyoto born and Hiroshima raised Japanese, that grew up in Michigan America for 6 years, and studied Mandarin in Beijing university for a year! I live in Kyoto, as I train in Kobudo (katana/staff/chain ball), Sadō (tea ceremony), Noh theatre, and Shakuhachi (bamboo flute), and wear men's kimono everyday. My dream is "to make all Japan lovers' dreams come true" by carrying on Japanese traditional culture to the next century."

On this channel, I primarily create videos about the culture and history of samurai and katana, budo techniques, and men’s kimono dressing and coordination. So, learners and lovers of Japanese language and culture, be sure to subscribe to enjoy more content! (The content of my videos are based on personal studies and experience. There is no intention of denying other theories and cultural aspects).
