Moon Mountain Hall
Moon Mountain Hall (月山館 ) is a private training activity concerned with maintaining a practice of traditional internal martial arts in the Pacific Northwest.
Inner Dharma was a blog I maintained between 2004 and 2024. I want to thank its readers for their feedback and encouragement. This site now has links to reference material of interest to classical and traditional martial artists and some training groups I recommend.
I am a lineal student of internal martial arts and studied aspects of several koryū before moving to the Pacific Northwest. The focus of my training efforts is on continued martial practice as a form of mindfulness and meditation called shugyō.
I maintain a practice of Japanese swordsmanship in Seattle and have taught a small number of people. Please visit the link above for more information. From time to time, I also have mentored experienced martial artists on aspects of traditional internal martial arts.
