Overview
  • You can learn calligraphy as an art cherished in our ninja clan.
  • The purpose of training calligraphy is the same as the martial arts training: to be able to keep peace of mind under any kind of circumstance as shinobi.
  • Not many know that there used be be at least one family that specialize in the art of calligraphy in each ninja clan. Those families were in charge of writing letters to feudal lords and deciphering documents. Their knowledge was vast from Chinese classics to science and medicine so that they could communicate well with the nobility and scholars as well as the Sengoku feudal lords.
  • Our clan served the Tokugawa Shogunate and we have been following our ancestors footsteps and kept our traditions to this date.
