Welcome to the homepage for the Kiyojute Ryu Kempo Bugei in Tennessee. Kiyojute Ryu is a complete martial arts system teaching the full range of fighting skills ranging from striking, kicking, throwing, and locking to weapons manipulation and more esoteric skills. The training methods are those found in the most ancient of martial arts and are geared toward the rapid development of effective self defense skill. Kiyojute Ryu is a vast system, and it offers the potential for a lifetime of practice and meaningful, ongoing learning.
