Shinjitsu Dojo

Ryu Sei Kenjutsu was developed by Saruta Soke and approved by the Japanese Goverment. Saruta Sensei was asked to oversee Nakayama Ryu Kenjutsu but refused to do so and no longer teaches any other form of kenjutsu other than Ryu Sei Kenjutsu.

In the Kenjutsu classes you will train with a bokken (wooden sword), iaito (non-sharpened alloy sword) and a katana (live blade sharp sword). You will learn many (kata) forms from standing position. You will also learn to cut targets, unlike some other styles. Cutting, referred to as battodo, is not just an exercise – this is a big part of the Kenjutsu curriculum and rank requirements. Would you want to demonstrate sword form and not have the ability to cut with your sword? Not likely right? So if you desire to learn the art of samurai, you should consider trying our Ryu Sei Kenjutsu program.
