Kobudo and Weapons Training in Raymond

Kobudo classes are held once per week on Wednesdays, and Advanced Kobudo class is offered on Saturdays for advanced kata and special weapons. During the week, the classes are 30 minutes for beginner novice students, and 45 minutes for advanced students. On Saturdays the class is 30 minutes long and focused on advanced weapons, tournament training and specialty kata.

Kobudo is traditional weapons training with the bo staff, eku bo, sai, tonfa, kama, and katana. You MUST have attained the rank of blue belt in our other programs at the dojo to participate and/or be approved by Renshi after an introduction. The focus of these classes are to enhance and develop students’ skills beyond open-hand practice to include the discipline and control necessary to practice martial arts with a weapon in their hands. These classes are highly individualized, and students work in much smaller groups with intense supervision and attention to detail.
