I tried asking this question in the jujutsu forum, but maybe this is where I should have started?
-------------------------------------
Hi everybody,
Am I misstaken or have two different men travelled to Edo, trained with the Yagyu family and recieved permission to name their tradition Yagyu shingan ryu? Those two men would be Araki Mataemon and Takenaga Hayato.
Are these two ryuha related somehow or just, for some reason, sharing the same name? They (in case of different traditions) seem to have somewhat similar curriculum, or I may have confused the two. Do both of them (in case of two different traditions) practise kachu kenpo and kachu yawara?
Can someone please explain this?
Regards,
Ulf Undmark
