Hello,
one of my friends is moving to the south of Hokkaido. He´s looking for a koryu dojo focusing on sword arts. But for the beginning, everything is fine :-)

Sorry, I don't know of anyone there personally. I know of a few Koryu in Hakodate and Sapporo, but outside the bigger cities in Hokkaido, there's not rich pickings,I'm afraid.
I did come across this:

It's a group that teaches Ono ha and Daito Ryu in Tomakomai.
I have no idea of what they teach,lineage etc. but your friend mightn't have a great deal of choice unless he's willing to travel.

Those of us in the Genbukan are very familiar with Nagao Sensei, as he is a teacher of Tanemura Soke. He is the Soke of Daito Ryu Aikijujutsu Yamamoto-ha, and also of Mugen Shinto Ryu Iaijutsu.

Thanks for the information!
My friend will contact Nagao-sensei when he will be in Japan.
Thank you very much for your help!
