Okinawa Genbu Ryu Kobudo Organisation

OKINAWA KOBUDO
Open to all Black Belts - by popular demand.

If you are seeking to deepen your Budo journey, we welcome you to experience the traditional Art of Okinawa Kobudo.

Training in authentic Okinawan weaponry develops discipline, precision, spirit, and a deeper understanding of classical martial arts traditions.

Add Okinawa Kobudo to your school and syllabus, or incorporate it into your personal training to further expand your knowledge, skill, and appreciation of traditional Budo.

Be recognised officially and internationally as a Kobudo practitioner, with the opportunity over time to progress through the ranks toward Black Belt, Sensei, and higher levels of recognised achievement and leadership in Kobudo.

If you are currently part of another organisation, we respectfully ask that you seek formal approval from your organisation leaders prior to joining. Independent martial artists are most welcome to apply.

Join us and continue your growth in traditional Budo while gaining recognised instruction in authentic Okinawa Kobudo.
