Picsart_24-04-03_16-25-36-286.jpg

Tetsujin-Kai is an association of martial artists looking to challenge themselves both physically and mentally to forge an Immovable Iron Spirit.

 

Our goal is to preserve and spread traditional Bushido ethics, spirituality and philosophy by through our online educational courses (gaku) to be coupled with independent martial arts practice and challenges (shugyo). 

​

We provide numerous shugyo challenges throughout the year hosted by our dojo that is open to all martial artists from any style or organization looking to challenge themselves physically.  From mountain training, seminars and our bi-annual Tetsujin Kumite, all are welcome to come train with us!

 

All Gaku courses are ingrained into our Kyokushin curriculum and are an integral requirement for promotion.  These courses cover a range of topics covering moral dilemas and self reflections rooted in Eastern ideology.  These courses and more are available HERE

 

Courses are available a la carte for those who are not dojo members, but would like to learn the valuable lessons in these courses.  All are welcome to sign up for individual courses or obtain our monthly Tetsujin-Kai Mudansha membership.   

​

To sign up for a Tetsujin-Kai club membership to gain access to our online courses as well as receive discounts for our shugyo events, you can do so HERE
