The four-story building has a training hall with a kamidana on the first floor and a chanko hall on the second floor that holds about 30 people.

On its founding the stable drew attention for training methods that do not stick to sumo tradition, such as three meals a day and oxygen capsules (per Japanese Wikipedia).
