The waiting time inbetween the practice fight is a very quiet moment when every sumo wrestler is concentrating and preparing for the fight. Even meditating. Sumo wrestler live and train in the heya and fight together every day. They start at a very young age and becoming a sumo is not just being a wrestler, it is ceremony over years and years of practicing. Shot on Mamiya 645.a
