Getsumei-no-Michi Dojo is an authorized keikokai (稽古会) of Tokumeikan, dedicated to the study of the Ohtsubo branch of the Owari Line of Yagyu Shinkage Ryu Kenjutsu. As one of Japan’s most respected classical sword traditions, Yagyu Shinkage Ryu emphasizes strategy, precision, and adaptability in combat.

 

Our dojo is rooted in the disciplined practice of traditional Japanese bujutsu and budō, providing a structured environment where students develop technical proficiency, tactical awareness, and a deeper understanding of classical martial principles. Through rigorous training, we explore the refined movements, timing, and control that define this distinguished lineage of Japanese swordsmanship.
