直伝
To inspire Humanity through the Power of Budo
We practice and promote the classical Japanese, as well as, Okinawan martial art discipline, strategy, and culture known as Budo. By applying the “Framework of Life” that Budo fosters, we are dedicated to building a better future.
So Budo Kai is an international martial arts organization, represented by five independent dojos, with its own art form, lineage and license. Karate-Do, Jodo, Iaido, Okinawa Kobudo and Aikido.
“So” which appears in So Budo Kai means all-encompassing. Budo is mentioned above and Kai is association or meetings. Thus, So Budo Kai is an “Association for a Comprehensive system of Budo.”
First art form and the foundation of So Budo Kai is “Chintokan” Okinawa Shorin Ryu Karate – Do. It was originally established in 1962, Osaka, Japan, by his father Soke Masaharu Sakimukai.
Then two decades later, his father added three more Budo to the Chintokan Dojo: 1) “Beikoku Shudokai” Shindo Muso Ryu Jodo / Jojutsu, 2) “Kenbukan Iaido” – Mugai Ryu Iaiheido, and 3) “Ryukyu Kobudo Kai” Okinawa weaponry.
Lastly, in March 2015, after five preparatory years, a fifth Budo “Fudo no Nami Aikido” officially joined the So Budo Kai family.
