-- PRESENTATION: TENSHIN SHODEN KATORI SHINTO RYU HEIHO --
Tenshin Shoden Katori Shinto Ryu is one of the oldest Japanese martial arts. It was founded in the 15th century by Iizasa Choisai Ienao, who was a famous spearman and swordsman of that time. You can still observe in the techniques of the school the characteristic movements due to the fighting conditions of a real battlefield: wearing a 35 kg ancient “Yoroi” armor, moving on potentially uneven ground, the warrior sees his movements slowed and restricted, and he has to strike on particular spots to efficiently go through his opponent’s own protection.
