Ittō Tenshin-ryū®

The 2024 Ittō Tenshin-ryū Taikai, a significant event within our tradition, concluded on Sunday evening. Additionally, we celebrated the founding of the Great Falls Budokan by Rajguru Sensei 50 years ago.

The theme of the taikai was "Setsunateki" (刹那的), a concept that beautifully encapsulates impermanence and the present moment. In keeping with the theme, there will be no after-action report.

The purpose of the Ittō Tenshin-ryū remains true to its inception: to enhance life through the empowerment of its deshi.

While some outside our tradition claim lineage to the Ittō Tenshin-ryū, this is impossible. The transmission of this tradition requires access to its "living example" and occurs in a moment.
