• First-time attendees who have basic knowledge of sumo and/or other martial arts and who feel comfortable jumping into a higher-intensity session

We encourage folks of all sizes and genders to participate. Priced at $15-22 (+ fees) on a sliding scale. Max. 14 people per session.

Looking for a beginner/introductory/chill refresher session? Please stay tuned for announcements on those coming soon.

This session is led by Shane Pecknold (he/him). Over 10 years, Shane has competed in eight sumo tournaments at Powell Street Festival and has co-coordinated the tournament and workshops since 2016. Having a varied background and a deep passion for martial arts in general, he has found unique ways to train getting ready for tournaments over the years. Shane has instructed with Sumo Sundays since its founding in 2022.
