Nihon budo demonstrations

In order to fight a drift of the martial arts who tend to become more spectacular than effective, Master Haruyoshi WATANABE created nihon budo, a martial art who maintains the Japanese martial arts in their essence and their tradition.

Nihon budo gathers three main components: aiki-ju jutsu is a defensive art based on dodging and immobilising its opponent, kenpo tai jutsu focuses on projections and armlocks and iai ken jutsu is linked to fencing. These three components are strongly connected, as they allow its user to adapt to every type of attack, and to progress on our martial way by highlighting the guidelines of these techniques, both with a sabre or bare-handed. 

Come to discover the martial art of nihon budo through several demonstrations where different clubs accompanied by Master Mitsuru WATANABE will present you this martial art’s components.

You are welcome to the at Japan Expo to watch nihon budo demonstrations and to participate in initiation sessions managed by Master WATANABE!
