for it's good shizan (target cutting) and practical two man sword
Kata. A modern art based on ancient techniques and philosophy. |
 |
| |
Art Lineage: Mitsuhiro Saruta
Laking Sensei trained directly under Saruta Sensei. |
|
| Mitsuhiro Saruta is thought by many prominent
swords man, to be the best target cutter in the world. His good balance
and posture was most likely developed during his long years of Kendo.
Saruta sensei was one of the top high school kendo contenders in the
country, when he was young. Because of his love of the sword and kendo,
he practiced cutting at a young age. |
He was scouted out by Nakamura
Taisaburo and there were plans to make Saruta the next soke of Nakamura
Ryu after Nakamura sensei's passing away , but Saruta sensei didn't
get a long with some of the others in the ranks of Nakamura Ryu
Batto Do. Saruta sensei left the art and began teaching under the
name of Ryu Sei Ken Batto Do. Even while under the Nakamura flag,
Saruta sensei refused to teach Nakamura Ryu and only taught the
kata now taught as Ryu Sei Ken.

association.
