-- PRESENTATION: TENJIN SHINYŌ RYŪ JŪJUTSU --
The founder of this school Iso Mataemon Ryūkansai Minamoto Masatari, after mastering at the highest extent the secrets of Yōshin Ryū and Shin no Shintō Ryū, started to travel through the country, and faced the headmasters of each clan without being ever defeated.
After many years of experience, when he was retired at the Kitano Tenman-gu sanctuary in Kyoto to compile his researches, he had a great revelation while he was watching a “Yōryū” willow bending under the wind. He founded his school and named it “Tenjin Shinyō Ryū”, by using the name of Tenmangu’s divinity, “Tenshin” (the spirit of Michizane), and by picking one character out of each school he used to practice before: “Shin” and “Yō”.
At the end of the Shogunate, he was teaching to over 5,000 students, and among 170 schools of Jujutsu, his claimed to surpass the others by far, and the warriors of numerous clans were competing to train there.
At the beginning of the Meiji era, in 1877, the founder of the Kōdōkan Jigorō Kanō Shihan passed the gate of Shihan Fukuda Yanosuke’s house to train there. In 1879, when the master passed away, it’s Iso Masatomo (3rd generation) who took over, and in 1882 Jigorō established the Kōdōkan.
