Sumo is Japan's national sport, and 600 wrestlers train desperately every morning in the hopes of reaching the pinnacle of their ranks - Yokozuna. This photo captures a moment when a wrestler is working hard at training.

I work as a freelance photographer and mainly take sports photos. I cover all sports, but I mainly shoot sumo, CrossFit, weightlifting, etc. I also take stage photos of traditional Japanese drumming, etc.
