Teaching Kempo & Tai Chi

Kiyojute Ryu Kempo Bugei

Kiyojute Ryu is a total martial art system composed of six general principles. They are Aikiho, the harmonious principle; Juho, the yielding principle; Goho, the strength principle; Bukiho, weapons principle; Nimpo, patience principle; and Shuho, taking principle. These six principles form the art of Shogei Toitsu Kempo, which is the foundation art of Kiyojute Ryu.
