Hello Nathan,
I couldn't find any details on a Muso-ryu Sojutsu immediately online, but here is a link to some fairly renowned historical Kochi bujutsu ryuha.

I thought I'd throw my 2 cents in as an ex-pat Aussie who has been around the koryu and jujutsu traps for a while. I don't personally know Mr Waters, but want to contribute some deductive information...
Hi Mat, many thanks for your details. :)
Hi Tim,
Sincere thanks for much of the impetus for the website revival, and for contacting Greg on this. Should be able to make some progress on it this weekend.
Thanks Paul.
Thanks Ben. This sounds like a good excuse to get in contact with Greg again.
Samuel,
Glad it's of some use to you. :)
Dean,
Good to hear from you. I'm done with the pastries for now and on to miso - should find out how I've done in a couple of months. I've got...
Happy Australia Day!
I've had a website up at www.geocities.com/koryu-bujutsu/ for several years now introducing koryu bujutsu/kobudo in Australia, which dissappeared off the Internet at the end...
<Bump> Mr. Muromoto, I'm glad to see your budo presence on the net again! All the best with the new blog. I'm very much looking forward to your new endeavor.
Mr Hall,
Thank you for the clarification. I was under the impression from your previous post that you were aware of specific references at an archive in Fukuoka.
Mr Hall,
I'd be very interested to know which Fukuoka archives to which you are referring. I am aware of some SMR resources in Tokyo, Ibaraki and Kanagawa, but was unaware of resources available...
Mr Sampson,
Thank you for sharing your sources here - I greatly appreciate it.
AMikko,
Here are Amazon links that include ISBN for two of the books mentioned above.

Mr Sampson,
I'd be grateful if you could share the details regarding the historical research Mr Matsui has done, as well as the biography you mentioned as being published in Japanese.
With...
Scott, I haven't seen any figures myself here, but one way to establish an estimate would be to look at the number of koryu bujutsu still existant in the period you define as "pre-WWII" in...
Ryugoro Fukushima had a class in Sydney before he and his wife moved to New Zealand. I'm uncertain as to whether or not he taught the class as koryu jujutsu, but some of the AFJJ senior practitioners...
Mr. Gatling,
That's an interesting standpoint. J. Osano wrote a piece on pre-war judo taught by a rogue judo instructor with more focus on strikes and disabling tactics in an early edition of...
The Nawa-sensei I knew taught Masaki-ryu, Edo Machikata Jutte, Shuriken and Hojutsu. His only involvement with ninjutsu was as a researcher, and he clearly stated that in his work, including...
I've just done a quick internet search for aikido dojo in Osaka, and there are quite a few! Depending on your current Japanese ability you might want to ask a local friend to help you with enquiries,...
You'll be able to find a range of jujutsu, aikijujutsu, jodo, iai and sogo budo groups in Osaka, Kyoto and Hyogo. How long are you planning on staying, and what kind of art are you interested in...
Dear Fredrik Hall,
Otake-sensei is the sole shihan of the Tenshinsho-den Katori Shinto-ryu under Iizasa Yasusada-soke, and currently teaches together with his two sons (as you noted above). You...
If you can read Japanese, Tomoyuki Yokose's Nihon no Kobudo, or Gakken's Nihon no Kenjutsu 1 & 2 are fairly accessible. Since the writers of these books aren't practitioners of the schools they write...
