Tatsunami stable (立浪部屋, Tatsunami-beya) is a stable of sumo wrestlers, formerly the head of the Tatsunami ichimon or group of stables. As of January 2023 it had 20 wrestlers. Previously situated in sumo's heartland of Ryōgoku nearby the Kokugikan stadium, it briefly moved in 2020 to Ibaraki Prefecture and alongside Shikihide stable was one of the furthest from Ryōgoku.[1] In April 2021 the stable announced it was moving to Taitō, to occupy the premises previously used by Tokiwayama stable. It now resides in this large building with the practice dohyo on the ground floor.
