Dear Hakkoryu enthusiasts,
We are thrilled to bring you news of our highly anticipated event - the unique HAKKORYU Jujutsu seminar is taking place in less than a month! We would like to extend our warmest invitation and hope you will receive this unexpected information with excitement. Despite the approaching date, we believe this invitation to an event filled with passion and learning will be warmly embraced. We look forward to your presence as we come together to create an unforgettable experience filled with HAKKORYU and the sharing of knowledge.
Mark your calendars for the dates 8th to 10th September 2023 and prepare yourself for an extraordinary training experience! Soke OKUYAMA TOSHIO and his son OKUYAMA TAKASHI are eager to meet you and personally guide you through techniques in the highest quality, just as they are practiced at Honbu Dojo. This is an unparalleled opportunity that we have lovingly prepared to offer you the very best of HAKKORYU Jujutsu.
Please note that the focus of this seminar will be on the techniques from Shodan, Nidan, Sandan, and Yondan levels, and on their pure execution in the highest quality under the supervision of the most qualified teachers. This is a rare chance to learn from the masters of HAKKORYU Jujutsu and improve your skills and understanding of this amazing art. On Saturday, the seminar will be open to other styles as well, and Soke will demonstrate the applications of the techniques, show a sample of Koho Shiatsu Igaku, and introduce Goshin Taiso. This will be a great opportunity to see the versatility and depth of HAKKORYU Jujutsu and to learn from its successor and his son.

For Friday evening, we have planned a special event - a cozy dinner with drinks in the center of Brno at a restaurant with Czech cuisine. You can enjoy a buffet-style meal with the option of ordering more food separately. The price will be specified later, but you can expect it to be around 30 Euro. This is also a great opportunity to see each other and have fun in an informal setting after a long covid period. The only dress code for the event is whatever you like, as long as you wear a wide smile and a good mood. We don’t care what you wear, we just care that you have fun and enjoy yourself. This is a friendly and relaxed event, so don’t worry about being formal or fancy. Just be yourself and have a blast! We are sure that you will enjoy this event and make some new friends along the way. If you are interested, please let us know.

These sessions will be led by Nidai Soke and Takashi Okuyama, who will share their expertise and insights with you. And the best part is: you can join these extra sessions for free, as they are included in the price of the Taikai. This is a gift as we want you to have the most rewarding and enjoyable experience possible.
