Yabusme is a ritual  praying for peace and happiness but at the same time, it is  a  Japanese  tranditional culture whose origin goes back  1,400  years. It requires great skill to take-over and maintain yabusame for which actual performances are  indespensable.  However, since many performances are cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemia, the situation is critical.   Therefore, taking the opportunity of commemorating  the  first anniversary of the Kamakura Practice Ground,exclusive for yabusame,  an actual  yabusame will be performed there. At the same time, the enchantment of yabusame will be appreciated by  spectators  as many as possible  permissible to avoid the  Covid-19 spread.
