From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia Masaaki Hatsumi (åˆè¦‹è‰¯æ˜ Hatsumi Masaaki) was born December 2, 1931. He graduated from Meiji University in Tokyo with a major in theater studies, and later opened his own chiropractic clinic in Noda city.
From his childhood he studied many martial arts, including judo and western boxing. But it was first when he met his teacher Toshitsugu Takamatsu that he found the arts that he wanted to dedicate his life to.
From Takamatsu he inherited the position of sÅke (headmaster) of 9 ryÅ« (schools of martial arts):
- Togakure-ryû Ninpô Taijutsu (æˆ¸éš æµå¿æ³•ä½“è¡“)
- Gyokko-ryû Kosshijutsu (玉虎æµéª¨æŒ‡è¡“)
- Kuki Shinden-ryû Happô Bikenjutsu (ä¹é¬¼ç¥žä¼æµå…«æ³•ç§˜å‰£è¡“)
- Kotô-ryû Koppôjutsu (虎倒æµéª¨æ³•è¡“)
- Shinden Fudô-ryû Dakentaijutsu (神ä¼ä¸å‹•æµæ‰“拳体術)
- Takagi Yôshin-ryû Jûtaijutsu (高木æšå¿ƒæµæŸ”体術)
- Gikan-ryû Koppôjutsu (義鑑æµéª¨æ³•è¡“)
- Gyokushin-ryÅ« NinpÅ (玉心æµå¿æ³•)
- Kumogakure-ryÅ« NinpÅ (é›²éš æµå¿æ³•)
To facilitate the teaching of these schools he created the Bujinkan DÅjÅ organization that teaches the essence of all the schools. He is the grandmaster.
Some of his more well-known senior students include:
- Jack Hoban
- Stephen K. Hayes
- Fumio Manaka
- Bo Munthe
- Glenn J. Morris
- Toshiro Nagato
- Isamu Shiraishi
- Shoto Tanemura
