is a stable of sumo wrestlers, part of the Isegahama '' ichimon'' or group of stables. It was founded by the 43rd ''yokozuna'' Yoshibayama as ''Yoshibayama dōjō'' while he was still an active wrestler, before changing to its current name in 1960. As of January 2023, the stable had 20 wrestlers, with two of them ranked in the second highest professional division. __TOC__ History In August 2004 former ''jūryō'' division wrestler Kanechika took over in controversial circumstances from former ''maegashira'' Chikubayama, who had been in charge since 1989. Unusually, the new stablemaster was from a different ''ichimon'' (Kanechika belonged to Kitanoumi stable, part of the Dewanoumi ''ichimon'', in his days as an active wrestler). Kanechika was able to take control of the stable because he married one of the daughters of the 9th Miyagino's widow, who owned the ''toshiyori'' name, which Chikubayama was only borrowing, and was adopted by her as her son. Chikubayama, who had guided ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Tachi-ai
The is the initial charge between two sumo wrestlers at the beginning of a bout. It is a combination of two Japanese words that mean “stand” and “meet”. There are several common techniques that wrestlers use at the tachi-ai, with the aim of getting a decisive advantage in the bout: ; Charge head-first : Usually to attempt to use one's weight and momentum to force the opponent backwards out of the ring. Such a headlong charge in a low position can lead a more agile opponent to dodge out of the way and slap the charger on the back to push him to his knees. ; Try to raise the opponent up into a vertical position : Makes the opponent more vulnerable to being pushed backwards toward the ring edge and also to certain types of throw and pull down moves. ; Thrust the opponent's chest : Again force the opponent backwards towards the ringedge, or to unbalance him sufficiently to execute a beltless arm throw or a pull down move.

Kimarite
''Kimarite'' ( ja, 決まり手) is the technique used in sumo by a ''rikishi'' (wrestler) to win a match. It is officially decided or announced by the ''gyōji'' (referee) at the end of the match, though judges can modify this decision. The records of ''kimarite'' are then kept for statistical purposes. The Japan Sumo Association (JSA) have officially recognized 82 such techniques since 2001, with five also recognized as winning non-techniques. However, only about a dozen of these are frequently and regularly used by ''rikishi''. A sumo match can still be won even without a ''kimarite'', by the virtue of disqualification due to a ''kinjite'' (foul), such as striking with closed fist. Basic The basic techniques ( ja, 基本技, kihonwaza) are some of the most common winning techniques in sumo, with the exception of ''abisetaoshi''. ''Abisetaoshi'' is a rarely used basic ''kimarite'' that pushes down the opponent into the ground back-first by leaning forward while grappl ...

Sanshō (sumo)
are the three special prizes awarded to top (''Makuuchi'') division sumo wrestlers for exceptional performance during a sumo ''honbasho'' or tournament. The prizes were first awarded in November 1947. Criteria All wrestlers in the top division below the rank of '' ōzeki'' are eligible. In order to be considered for a special prize a rikishi must make a ''kachi-koshi'' or majority of wins during the tournament. Among eligible rikishi, the prize winners are decided by a panel which includes press writers covering the tournament. There is no requirement that the prizes must be awarded, and it sometimes happens that one or more of the ''sanshō'' are not given. It is also common for an award to be awarded to more than one wrestler. The three prizes are *, Outstanding Performance prize *, Fighting Spirit prize *, Technique prize Typically the ''Ginō-shō'' is awarded to a wrestler or wrestlers who display the most skillful ''kimarite'', or techniques; the ''Shukun-shō'' is awarde ...
