*** REGISTRATION BEGINS MARCH 1ST ***

In a rapidly changing world, progress depends not only on new ideas but also on understanding the foundations that shaped them. Our theme of "Onkochishin" encourages reflection, respect for history, and the courage to evolve. Participants will learn how to balance stability with creativity, ensuring sustainable growth and continuous improvement.

WE'RE EXCITED
The International Kokondo Association proudly announces that the 2026 Kokondo National Seminar will be held at the Jukido Jujutsu Dojo in West Hartford, Connecticut, the newly recognized Official Honbu (World Headquarters) Dojo of Kokondo Martial Arts. This marks a historic milestone for the Kokondo community as the Honbu Dojo becomes the central home for training, tradition, and the continued growth of Kokondo worldwide.
