Gassan Kenpō

剣法

Yuèshān-guan is read Gassankan in Japanese — I continue to practice classical sword methods (kenpō) from Japan I learned before moving to Seattle. Over time this practice has become increasingly influenced by my internal martial arts training.

 

 

I use the historical kata of Jikishinkage-ryū kenjutsu and related arts as a point of departure for experimentation in free practice. Due to having multiple influences and continuing to train independently, I use the name Gassan Kenpō [ 月山剣法 ] to describe this activity.
