Ken Nagayama Martial Arts

Ken Nagayama Martial Arts is a combination of several Martial Arts styles.

The foundation of this system is an Okinawan form of Karate called Moto Bu Ryu, which was originally taught only to the royal family of Okinawa. Moto Bu Ryu training expands basic Karate moves into more difficult punching, kicking, and throwing techniques. The emphasis on strong, flexible, circular footwork of Moto Bu Ryu enabled Master Nagayama to integrate aspects of some other highly esteemed forms of Martial Arts.

Tae Kwon Do, a Korean Art, is most well known for its outstanding kicking techniques. Encompassing the widest variety of kicks, both basic and advanced, it requires flexibility, strength, coordination, and muscle control.

Aikido; the teaching of "defense oriented" throwing techniques. Based on knowledge rather than strength, Aikido teaches a student to give pain to and throw an opponent through the use of pressure points, locking of joints, and using the opponents own power against them.

There are also some elements of Judo and traditional boxing that are blended in to provide a rich well rounded discipline dedicated to both the mental and physical growth of the students.
