Our Method

The Nagano Ryu technical system centers on two complementary approaches. Our grappling methodology targets an opponent's structural weaknesses through sophisticated joint manipulation and isolation techniques. Meanwhile, our striking system employs multi-level attacks designed to disrupt an opponent's balance while maintaining your own unshakable center—a principle deeply rooted in traditional Japanese martial philosophy.

Our teaching philosophy balances traditional wisdom with modern application. We've modernized these historical combat techniques to address today's self-defense challenges while honoring their original principles. This approach creates a comprehensive system that fosters self-development and organizational growth alongside practical defensive skills.
