Hebi-ryu Karate-do
Based on Hanshi Kaufman's book, Musashi's Book of Five Rings, students learn Hebi-ryu karate-do as an aesthetic approach to the mastery of classical karate and the samurai warrior mentality associated with it. Though self-defense is an aspect of the martialist system, a deeper meaning of the art and science of karate becomes apparent in the early stages of training. The philosophies expounded in Hanshi’s books are explored with connections to all aspects of the warrior’s life. Hebi-ryu karate-do is an ongoing study. Beginners and advanced students, individuals and groups will be considered for study.
