Ryushin Kan

If you want to have a premium Japanese swordsmanship experience, then you should come to Ryushin Kan at 36th St. Val Sensei and his students are very serious when it comes to practicing classical iaijutsu. Classes are held on Sundays, while the Tuesday classes are at the Astor Place location. The dojo is spectacular as well! I believe the dojo also houses shotokan karate, judo and yoga classes on different days of the week as well, under the JA Budokan school. So you can get your fix of different martial arts, all in one location! It's right next to Ktown, so finding a great spot to eat after classes is easy to do! You honestly can't go wrong coming here. The students are extremely friendly and easy-going, yet serious enough to give the art the respect it deserves. Come learn real swordsmanship at Ryushin Kan!!!
