Ajigawa stable (2022)

Ajigawa stable (安治川部屋, Ajigawa-beya) is a stable of sumo wrestlers, part of the Isegahama ichimon or group of stables. It was formed by former sekiwake Aminishiki in December 2022 after he became independent from Isegahama stable.[1][2] An opening event for new stable supporters was held later that same month.[3] As of January 2023, the stable has 3 wrestlers[4] with 2 wrestlers actively competing.

For the stable known as Ajigawa stable from 1979 to 2007, see Isegahama stable (2007).

The stable is located in the Kōtō ward of Tokyo. It is temporarily based in the Senda District, with plans to move to a permanent location in the Ishijima District in July 2023.[1]
