description of the school
We practice each Saturday at Aikikai of Philadelphia, from 12:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.
Yagyu Shin Kage Ryu is one of the koryu -- the ancient martial systems of Japan. It is a hyo ho, a strategic system. Although today's practice focuses on the long sword, more advanced practitioners also practice the wakizashi (short sword), tessen (samurai fan) and muto (open-hand disarming techniques). As with other koryu, Yagyu Shin Kage Ryu focuses primarily on preserving and transmitting a martial system hundreds of years old.
