Class schedule is Mondays and Wednesdays 8:30-10 p.m. and Sundays from 11 a.m.-12:30 p.m.

No Challenge

The techniques of Hakkoryu are nothing but the pure self-protection instinct that prepares your spirit to face urgent matters of life and death. That is, when one encounters violence, it can be said that Hakkoryu provides natural, simple, and practical methods that enable one to calmly face imminent peril and move on without hesitation to capture and punish assailants reasonably and easily in an instant - Ryuho Okuyama, Founder, Hakko Denshin Ryu JuJutsu

No Resistance

As one makes progress through the Nidan-gi, Sandan-gi, and so forth, the techniques naturally increase in their punishment and severity. We can say that the state which ensues from immersion in Hakkoryu is the same as “priming water” (that is, putting water under great pressure) which develops instincts that can explode in an instant - Ryuho Okuyama, Founder, Hakko Denshin Ryu JuJutsu

No Injury

The advanced teachings of Hakkoryu allow for the free control of life and death. But such a choice is up to man. The holy heart grows from the natural posture of righteousness. Therefore, dismiss evil in your heart. Only then will you be ready to learn our secrets. Relax and focus your tanden. Disinterest yourself. With the mind of Hakkoryu, your protection techniques will spontaneously and readily come out without thinking. Calmly focus your spirit, attack the mind of the opponent and shatter his will to its depth - Ryuho Okuyama, Founder, Hakko Denshin
