Shinto Muso Ryu is a classical Japanese weapons art, focused on using a medium-length staff to defeat an opponent armed with a sword. It is what is often referred to as a koryu (lit. “old school”) art, distinguishing schools that trace their lineage prior to the Meiji restoration in 1868. For much of its 400-year history, Shinto Muso Ryu was used as a police art by the Kuroda clan in present-day Fukuoka. Training is primarily through paired kata, which are pre-arranged sequences of stimuli-response pairs designed to build habitual responses to different scenarios. In this introductory course, students will learn the first four kihon (fundamental) exercises and several kata from the seitegata set. No prior martial arts experience is necessary. Training weapons will be provided.
