DEMO

Our demo at Viva Calle was a brilliant success despite the threat of rain. We had a great turn out, with lots of families, and a great showing from our students.

This event was sponsored by the City of San Jose and Welcoming America. The amphitheater stage was presented by Mosaic America which brings community together through creative cultural experiences. Check out their website:

ABOUT US
We are one of four schools under the Seibu Ryu name, with schools in Seattle, WA, Basildon, UK, and our home dojo located in Fuji City, Japan.

Students will learn traditional kata along with sword drawing techniques, how to cut, and sparring.  You not only build a strong sense of accomplishment, but also a strong kinship with everyone else in the community.

Take a look at the video showing some students in action!
