History
The genealogy of Kobudo (Ancient martial arts) studied at the Jinenkan Dojo date back to the Warring States period of Japanese History. Each item of our study is meticulously documented in scrolls dating back hundreds of years. Overseen by Senior Instructor, Adam Mitchell, the purpose of our Dojo is to preserve these methods of survival handed down by generations of Japan's ancient warriors. These methods have been entrusted to us. With the right heart, a student of our Dojo will join this heritage.
