GENBUKAN NINPO
			The Genbukan Ninpo Federation was created in 1984 by Grandmaster Shoto Tanemura of Japan. The main parts of Ninpo are Taijutsu, Bojutsu, and Bikenjutsu, beyond these are the Ninpo Sanjurokkei, or 36 areas of martial training. Ninpo is a traditional Japanese martial art that is a group of related ancient traditions such as Gyokko ryu Kosshijutsu, Togakure ryu Ninjutsu, Kukishin ryu bojutsu, Shinden Fudo Ryu Dakentaijutsu, Gikan ryu Koppojutsu, etc, combined in modern times as a complete martial arts system. Ninpo is also known as the higher order of Ninjutsu because the "Po" refers to the spiritual significance of the training rather than "jutsu" which means technique. In Ninpo we strive to not only study physical techniques, but mental and spiritual teachings as well. Ninpo is not a sport or a rules based system, but an ancient art for true case self defense. The techniques of Ninpo were born out of battlefield tested techinques, if a technique did not work it was it was discarded.
