Japanese Martial Arts

I am looking for a Japanese martial art school in NYC that can teach me traditional fighting methods and what they originally designed the art for. I do not want to join a school where all they teach you is how to run and get help, like those offered by the YMCA and other community organizations. Also, I would like one where the Sensei is a truely trained martial artist.

Your best bet is to go to different schools observe a class, talk to the instructor and find the best fit for you.

Japanese Martial Arts

Well, I would like to take an all-year round Ninjutsu or Kenjutsu class, but most of the classes around my area are just corporations trying to make money, and the real dojos only accept 18 and over. I just want some tips on looking.

one of my friends Shihan Anthony Lucas teaches in NYC at bujinkan koteki dojo, you could check out his classes, along with learning traditional JMA, it has Kenjutsu from the Koto-ryu ryuha(school) and classes, ettiquette

are conducted the same way its done in Japan due to the Shihan and the circle that he trains in takes trips to Japan regularly and follow Sokes guidlines and training updates

Shihan Lucas's phone- 917-224-3630

Basically Japanese etiquette is what I'm looking for.
Does the Koteki Dojo accept those under 18?

oh ok kool. i think you'll like the swordwork from the koto ryu, shinden fudo ryu, and the ninpo part of the art. went to a few seminars with Anthony an it was a good learning experience, he's very knowledgeable.

youll be learning alot about Japan from him and the other Instructors and classmates youll train with.
