THE HOME OF TAMIYA SHINKEN RYU IAIDO IN EUROPE.

WELCOME !
Welcome to the homepage of Agehachô Budôkai :
The Budo Association of the Swallowtail Butterfly
The name of this organisation is refering to the name of the Kamon (family crest) of the Katsumata family which is called : "Age ha no chô" : a butterfly with erected wings. It is the courtesy of Katsumata sensei to let us use his crest.
This organisation is the Home of Tamiya Shinken Ryu in Europe with study groups in France, Luxemburg, Switserland, Hungary and Slovakia.
We are members of the Zen Nihon Kendo Renmei, therefore you will also find some feedback on ZNKR iaido and ZNKR jodo.
We invite you to discover our site & organisation and are looking forward to your comments.
