KenShinTai Kai - Ju-jutsu.

KenShinTai Kai - Ju-jutsu. The Kenshintai Kai (School of sword, spirit & body), was founded in 1980 by Sensei Steve Crooks, for the study of Budo - Japanese Martial Arts.

The Kenshintai Kai (School of sword, spirit & body), was founded in 1980 by Sensei Steve Crooks (4th Dan Judo, 4th Dan Jujutsu, 2nd Dan Iaido), for the study of Budo - Japanese Martial Arts. Sensei Crooks was awarded 1st Dan Judo in March 1970 by M Otani, 8th Dan, British Judo Council. Other grades awarded by Tokushima Budo Council & Jiyu-u Renmei. We offer classes in traditional Japanese Jujitsu

& also have monthly sessions devoted to Iaido. We are a small, friendly club who are independent of the main organisations. Some of these groups are run on commercial lines and charge high fees for gradings etc. Whilst there is nothing wrong with this, it is not the way of the Kenshintai Kai. The Kenshintai Kai is a non profit making club. None of the instructors receives any payment for their teaching. JU JITSU- (also called jujutsu, jiujitsu etc) is a Japanese self defence system which is hundreds of years old. There were many styles of Jujutsu, some of which led to Judo & Aikido being created. Very few of these old styles still exist and most of the styles of Jujitsu practised today are modern forms. Koryu (traditional styles) are very rarely seen outside Japan. The system taught at Kenshintai Kai (Tenshin Ryu) was developed by Sensei Crooks over 45 years of training & includes techniques collected from traditional & modern styles of Jujutsu, Judo, Aikido & Kobudo (weapons). Techniques are suitable for men & women of any age (14 years+) as they do not rely on power or strength. IAIDO - is the art of drawing & using the Japanese sword. The style taught at Kenshintai Kai is Tenshin Ryu, which Sensei Crooks, & other students of the club, studied with Sensei Tudor Box. Sensei Box was a student of Sensei Tomio Otani, who studied under Kenshiro Abbe Sensei, 8th Dan. Kenshiro Abbe came to the UK in 1955 to teach Judo. While here he introduced Aikido and Kendo to the UK. He had studied Iaido with Ogawa Kinnosuke 10th Dan.
