RaeucherLax 290 Posted June 20, 2017 (edited) https://www.kokonoe-beya.com/en/ Kokonoe Heya launched an english website on the 2. of June. Some Information about their Rikishi, Gyoji and the Oyakata (ex-Chiyotaikai ) and how to join the supporters Club (koenkai). As @John Gunning pointed out in a different thread not so long ago you have to be a koenkai member (or accompany one) if you want to visit. Does somebody here know if there any other heya with english websites? Edited June 22, 2017 by RaeucherLax Heya / Beya ... sorted out 4 now 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

orandashoho 720 Posted June 21, 2017 (edited) @mods -- if this going to be a general thread for heya websites, please change the topic title. @Fay -- the Tomozuna pages are outdated. Is no one updating them any more? Edited June 21, 2017 by orandashoho Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just searched it in the glossary and don't find the option to change the thread name into Kokonoe-beya on my mobile phone... of its possible at all. I change thread titles all the time during a basho, from PC, laptop, and tablet. I haven't tried it with a phone but maybe it's done the same way. For reference for those who don't know how, to change the title of a thread you created click the Edit "button" (link, whatever) on the originating message. The title then becomes editable. This is the same Edit you would use to make changes to a message you posted. Edited June 21, 2017 by Fukurou 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Benevolance 2,511 Posted June 21, 2017 Shikihide beya just added an Instragram page to their social media presence at the beginning of the month. Not really English, per se, but usually text doesn't matter for Instagram. They post a lot of pictures on Twitter, so I'm hoping they build up a decent collection.

Well in fact I only support Chiyoshoma from the beginning, without being a member of the supporters club. I go to watch training there each time I'm in Japan. Most of the time I take people with me. So if someone wants to join next time, send me a message. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
