Training

Training at the Adelaide Tatsumi-ryu Kenkyukai is held on Saturdays in the Fullarton area. People who are interested in training are encouraged to contact us here.

Before beginning training, it is recommended that students familiarise themselves with koryu. Koryu.com is an excellent resource and more sources of information can be found on the recommended reading page. For information specific to Tatsumi-ryu, the following articles provide the best introduction:

Keeley, Liam. ‘Kato Takashi: Reflections of the Tatsumi-ryu Headmaster’ in Koryu Bujutsu: Classical Warrior Traditions of Japan
Keeley, Liam. ‘The Tojutsu of the Tatsumi-ryu, Murphy’s Law, and the K.I.S.S. Principle’ in Sword and Spirit: Classical Warrior Traditions of Japan, Volume 2.
