Welcome to the
Myofuan Takakage Dojo website.

The Takakage Dojo is a small group of dedicated practitioners of classical Japanese martial art, and the Massachusetts branch of the Myofuan Classical Japanese Martial Art Association lead by Muramatsu Koryu Sensei.

Our dojo guides practitioners of all levels in the study of six traditional Japanese martial lineages of unarmed combat, as well as swordsmanship, stick-fighting, truncheon, shuriken, weighted chain, lance, glaive, and many other bugei, or martial disciplines related to Japan’s warrior class.  These arts are helpful as a method of self-protection, a way to manage dangerous situations, and are applicable to those seeking a Way to perfect oneself through the training of the body & mind.

Quite different from most modern martial art, one may be able to discover the true nature of marital art from studying these classical combat survival methods. 

Currently, there are a dozen or so branches of the Myofuan Classical Martial Art Research Association throughout Japan & the United States.  People of all ages and backgrounds enjoy membership, from students to 60+ year old retirees.

For those interested in training or membership, contact us to visit and  observe a class.  We look forward to meeting you!
