    Default Ikkenkai Haga Dojo

    Do anyone have an information about this particular dojo?

    http://haga-dojo.operacity.com/

    I only know that they teach prewar kendo + Hesegawa Eishin Ryu Iaido. The founder are Junichi Haga sensei, a senior student of Nakayama Hakudo Sensei.

    I heard that they also teach shindo munen ryu but I can not find information about it (except from JCC website of Ken Pitchford sensei). If anyone can provide and information, I will very appreciate.

    Default Haga Dojo

    The Haga Dojo maintains the teachings of Haga Junichi as passed down to his son, to the current Kancho Unoki Shihan.

    It maintains Muso Shinden Ryu (iai only), Shindo Munen Ryu's version of Kendo (this is not Shindo Munen Ryu itself, but rather one of the last remaining version of Pre-war Kendo which was stylistically created to compliment it.... it also still exists in the Yushinkan), and the Goka Goyo kata of Shindo Munen Ryu Kenjutsu (they do not teach anyother kumitachi, iai, or any of the others teaching contained in Shindo Munen Ryu).

    The Haga Dojo is most renown for their kendo, which is notorious for it's violence (ie. checking, sweeping the feet, grappling, tsuki-ing to dou, and other practices that Modern Kendo has discarded long ago).
