月山館

The Gassankan or Yueshan-guan is a martial arts training activity led by Mark Raugas in the Pacific Northwest that maintains a practice of internal martial arts and Japanese swordsmanship.

I have worked at times with experienced martial artists on aspects of internal martial arts training, providing feedback to them as best I am able, but I do not hold public classes. Similarly, I led a small class in Jiki Shinkage-ryu in Seattle from 2018 to 2024, but am no longer accepting students.

More information, including martial arts photography, essays on traditional martial arts and culture, and links to resources (books, schools) I recommend, can be found at Inner Dharma.
