Japanese Martial Arts

The Japanese samurai were known for their ferociousness in battle and lethal swordsmanship. Dr. David A. Hall, author of Encyclopedia of Japanese Martial Arts, discusses samurai training methods and a number of martial arts schools that have preserved these practices until the present day. Onstage demonstrations by Dr. Hall and a number of local martial arts groups bring the talk to life and educate the audience on the variety of Japanese martial arts that exist.

Demonstrating groups include:
Ken-Zen Institute
Kyokushin Karate New York
New York Budokai
New York City Kendo Club
Sword Class NYC
