🇯🇵 Okinawan Kobudo Tour | 4–12 July 🇯🇵

We said that there were going to be some VERY cool things happening in 2026...

This July, we return to the birthplace of Kobudo for an amazing opportunity to train and experience the culture in Okinawa, Japan.

Tour highlights include:

🥋 Kobudo training at the Hozonkai Kobudo Honbu Dojo with senior instructors

🥋 Sessions with senior sensei from other Okinawan karate styles

🏯 Visits and training at the Budokan and Karate Kaikan

🌺 A guided cultural tour, connecting the weapons, the people, and the history

This is more than a training camp!

It’s an immersion into tradition, lineage, and the spirit of Okinawan martial arts, where Kobudo lives, breathes, and evolves.

📅 Dates: 4–12 July

📍 Location: Okinawa, Japan

We'll have some indicative pricing soon.

Spots will be VERY limited.

If you’ve ever wanted to train at the source, this is the opportunity.

Stay tuned for more details, registration will be opening soon!!
