Our Jojutsu group has recently begun to increase training time with the jo, bokken, and other ancillary weapons in Shindo Muso Ryu Jojutsu in order to prepare for a week of intensive training that will be held next August. Known as a "gasshuku", these training sessions are held on a regular basis and train all weapons in the system. Training can be quite intensive (up to 10 hours a day for the week) and are intended to really drill down into the specifics and heiho (strategies) of the ryu. Classes are held 2x a week and we are always looking for those who might be interested in learning a 450 year old combative weapons school.
