Daito Ryu Aiki Jujutsu Kiyama Kai

Daito Ryu Aiki Jujutsu

Daito Ryu Aiki Jujutsu is a 1,200-year-old samurai martial art. Its core principles focus on subtle manipulations of balance that can complement and enrich any martial arts training. Daito Ryu is not just a set of techniques, but a mindset that can transform budo practice.
It has directly influenced the development of many popular martial arts, such as Shorinji Kempo, Hakko Ryu Jujutsu, Hapkido and most famously Aikido, whose founder Morihei Ueshiba trained extensively in Daito Ryu.
Kiyama Kai was formed by Roy Goldberg Shihan in 2017
