Four Winds Samurai Arts is an official Nami ryu Aiki Heiho dojo
We offer classes in Japanese swordsmanship and traditional Aiki Jujutsu in North San Diego County. Classes accommodate all skill levels, promoting discipline, resilience, and mental clarity. Our curriculum includes practical jujutsu and aiki applications which are subtle and extremely effective. These techniques remain true to their original purpose and principles, which are firmly rooted in a world where edged weapons were the norm.
“There is no anticipation, expectation, assumption, and judgment; these are the four horsemen of the Apocalypse in Nami ryu. We don’t know what we are going to do in response to a threat; indeed we don’t want to know. To know is to no longer be in the moment of “Now.””
