Coral dyeing will bring you happiness…

------Experience it at the workshop and
Get your original T-shirt, the only one in the world.

A coral reef basked in the sun gives a shining rainbow color to Okinawan sea.
The beautiful sea variegated with blue, green, violet and other colors is considered to be a gift from nature dyed by a coral reef. A coral is said to bring us good luck and happiness from ancient days. In the summer night corals will lay their huge number of eggs under the light of full moon and just like snowfalls under water the mysterious and fantastic scene of the floating eggs can be observed. The eggs associate us with prosperity of descendants and coral’s long life with longevity. The coral dyeing method represents attractiveness of a coral itself.

Fantastic Bullfight!------No matador, but just like a bull sumo wrestling


Okinawa's bullfighting is a one-on-one fight between two bulls, not a bull and a matador like bullfighting in Spain. Therefore each bull is accompanied by a trainer called a 'Seko' to cheer them up to the fight. Each fighting bull may have only one trainer with it but there are other Sekos waiting along the fence of the fighting arena may take turns. The tournaments usually consist of 10-13 matches and start with the lowest ranked bulls up to Yokozuna. Each one match won't have a limited time for fighting and therefore here are various matches to be enjoyed which come to an end from a thrilling one for a few seconds to an exciting and hectic one for more than 30 minutes. Thus the match schedule may vary from two and a half to more than four hours a day.
