Seishinkan Kyudojo USA

Seishinkan Kyudojo USA Kyudo, the Way of the Bow, is one of Japan's oldest and most honored martial traditions. Today, kyudo is practiced worldwide by more than half a million people.

The Seishinkan Kyudojo (Japanese Archery), located in Emeryville CA is a member of the the American Kyudo Renmei under the auspices of the All Nippon Kyudo Federation. Over the course of Japanese history and under the influence of Shinto beliefs, Confucian morality, and Buddhist philosophy (including, but not limited to, Zen), the technique of archery flowered into the art of kyudo, where archery

is practiced as a Way of seishin tanren, or "spiritual forging." The diligent practice of kyudo provides both healthful exercise and a way for cultivating self-awareness and spiritual maturity, eventually leading to the realization of "Shin Zen Bi", or "Truth, Goodness and Beauty" in the life of the archer. These qualities make kyudo an ideal way for modern people to maintain their physical and spiritual health and composure in an increasingly hectic world.
