the Tokyo Sushi Grow Up Academy
Point1
Intensive Short-Term Curriculum
Our program is a focused, two-month intensive course.
With hands-on training in sushi making and knife skills in every session, you'll develop muscle memory and reach a professional level by the time you graduate.
Point2
Become Job-Ready for a Wide Range of Workplaces!
You'll learn various ways to handle fish-whether prioritizing quality, speed, aging, or freezing-depending on the needs of the workplace.
We also offer lessons on making items like gari (pickled ginger) and oboro (sweetened fish flakes), which are typically pre-made in most restaurants.
Point3
Job Placement & Startup Support
Our parent company, DYM Co. Ltd. (with a link to the website), operates a wide range of businesses both in Japan and abroad, including human resources, web services and real estate. Thanks to this strong network, we provide extensive support for employment and starting your own business after graduation.
