Shikihide stable, Sumo training stable in Ibaraki Prefecture, Japan

The Shikihide stable operates from a location distant from the central sumo district, housing nineteen wrestlers who train and live together under strict regulations.

Established in 1992 by former komusubi Ōshio, the stable took nearly twenty years to produce its first sekitori-ranked wrestler, Senshō from Mongolia.

The stable maintains traditional sumo practices while incorporating modern training methods, including yoga sessions following daily practice routines for all wrestlers.

Located far from Tokyo's Ryōgoku district, the stable requires all wrestlers to complete high school education while pursuing their sumo training.

The stable accepts wrestlers regardless of their physical size, with some members weighing as little as 67 kilograms, challenging typical sumo standards.
