Welcome to TATSU-RYU-BUSHIDO!
Old paths – rediscover them
“Whether sporty or ambitious, whether in person or online, there is something for all ages”
This style is based on the exercise with traditional weapons, weaponless training and history and culture of Japan. It follows the theories of the five elements and the martial art, originated and developed by Miyamoto Musashi, the legendary Japanese Sword fighter.
A martial art, which improves individual self-confidence, stimulates health and trains character through the philosophy and tradition of the Samurai. Self-assured appearance and assertiveness, also preventive, joins tradition and modern life in this martial art. The personal development of body and mind independent of gender, age and physical conditions, is offered without participating in tournaments.
The characteristics of this art are high quality, suitable in everyday life, as well as the pursuit of perfection, which are continuously developed and awarded this concept repeatedly. Numerous social activities, also in nature, complete the concept.
In summary is “the way of the Samurai in the style of the dragon” in Japanese the Tatsu-Ryu-Bushido.
- Tatsu = dragon
- Ryu = style/school
- Bushido = the way of the warrior (Samurai)

The five elements
The grades and colours of belts in Tatsu-Ryu-Bushido are based on the five elements in the book “Gorin-no-sho” by Myamoto Musashi. Each colour represents a different element.
White to green
In the beginning you learn the basics in the element Earth (Chi). The earth is hard and therefore hard techniques are to be learned. The scholar learns to walk.
Green to blue
The second element is Water (Sui). Now the techniques become more fluent and softer. Water finds its way. By doing this, throwing techniques become essential.
Blue to brown
The element Fire (Ka) is hot and explosive. You learn to predict an attack of the opponent to sabotage the attack and attack first.
Brown to black
The element Wind (Fu) works with the energy of opponents to redirect it and use it against them, as well as familiarizing yourself with other martial arts.
Black
The last element is the Void (Ku). It comprises nothing and everything at the same time. Nothing has to be, everything can be. Within those Principles is no beginning and no end.

The seven virtues of Tatsu-Ryu-Bushido
Tatsu-Ryu-Bushido is based on the code of conduct of “bushido” by Nitobe and is applicable in a dojo (gymnasium, school or house) as well as socially in modern times.
Gi (義): Integrity and Honesty
Integrity and honesty define the interaction of people, within training sessions and outside, as well as respect and tolerance towards all people, as well as their trainer and the martial art Tatsu-Ryu-Bushido.
Yu (勇): Courage
It often requires courage to do the right thing and thereby taking a more difficult way. Courage means also to give the best even if the goal seems impossible to reach.
Jin (仁): Benevolence
Primarily benevolence means to let everyone be happy in their own way, if they don’t harm others in doing so.
Rei (礼): Courtesy
Courtesy applies to manners like hygiene, punctuality, appropriate and required clothing, an overall orderliness and a proper behaviour. Courtesy expresses the respect towards other people.
Makoto (誠) or Shin (真): Honestly
For a Samurai, lying was not a sin it was worse, they deemed it a weakness. Truth/veracity means not only to tell the truth to others, but also to be honest to one self.
Meiyo (名誉): Honour
Honour is shown in the appreciation of the obligations and privileges of people. To act with honour, courage is needed.
Chū (忠): Duty and faith also Chūgi (忠義): Loyalty
Duty and loyalty demand that the well-being of the community ranks higher than that of one individual. Loyalty stands for not acting against honour and tradition of the martial art and to uphold their etiquette.
Quality
Every system achieves its value and appreciation from outside. This is also true for Tatsu-Ryu-Bushido.
