Martial Arts in Japan

Living in Japan has given me the opportunity to see a great number of arts that are not commonly seen in the West.

I recently attended an martial arts demonstration at a shrine that was truly amazing. Arts demonstrated in the 5 hour extravaganza included Hozoin Ryu, Owari Kan Ryu, Ryukyu Kobujutsu, Shinto Muso Ryu, Tendo Ryu and Yagyu Shinkage Ryu.

In future posts I will explain more about some of these arts and include some more photos of the demonstrations.
