It was a pleasure training with my friend Valentino Guzzinati and the other members of the Italian Branch last weekend. Also, a special thanks to those who travelled from other parts of Italy besides Ferrara, and those who travelled from Belgium and Israel to attend.

It was great to (re)connect with old friends and make new ones. I look forward to training with everyone in future seminars in Japan and around the world.

As a reminder of upcoming seminars led by Yabuki Soke, see below:

I am pleased to announce that the latest volume of the Secrets of Itto-ryu (Itto-ryu Gokui) is out.

Secrets of Ittō-ryū: Book Five is the fifth installment of the translation of the Itto-ryu Gokui and covers the teachings of Ono-ha Ittō-ryū passed down orally to Sasamori Junzo, the 16th Soke of the school. Book Five builds upon Book Four, which covers in detail the contents of the school's licenses.

Book Five breaks the teachings down into two chapters:

The first covers more practical aspects of the art, such as detailed descriptions of the kamae, how to observe your opponent, timing and distance, and the nuances of attacking and cutting.

The second chapter covers more esoteric aspects of the art, such as its relationship to Heaven, Earth, Man, Ying-Yang theory etc. This chapter also contains letters between Yamaga Takayoshi and Nakanishi Chuzo, where they discuss the pros and cons of kata training vs competitive practice with shinai.

This book is available at Amazon here: https://a.co/d/1LhyChg

You can also get it directly from the publisher’s website here (not Amazon): www.alkaidresearch.com
