Shinden Fudo Ryu
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Shinden Fudo Ryu is a school of dakentaijutsu and jutaijutsu/jujutsu. Shinden Fudo means "immovable teachings transmitted by the gods." Shinden Fudo Ryu has many body conditioning methods using items found in nature. Like nature, the forms and movements are natural and relaxed. The school also teaches Ono (a very large axe), Otsuchi (a very large hammer), and Odachi (a huge sword). [1]
It was founded in the middle of the 12th century by Genpachiro Temeyoshi according to the Bujinkan. [2] Others claim it was founded by Izumo Kanja Yoshiteru. [3]
The current sōke is Masaaki Hatsumi. [4]
