"Our first days in Miami in preparation for the Pan American Encounter was beyond my expectations.
After the preparations came the training. Heavy training followed by shiais in which even the newcomers and beginners had a chance to fight and feel the adrenaline pumping was an unforgettable experience to watch Sensei practicing in Miami.
I think that we are going in the right direction and that Niten has a bright future in the US.
Our bodies may be tired but our souls are light and happy...." Barreto - São Paulo
Tradução:
Após os preparativos veio o treino. Treino pesado seguido por Shiais (Lutas) em que até os visitantes e iniciantes tiveram a oportunidade de lutar e sentir a adrenalida pulsando, foi uma experiência inesquecível assistir ao Sensei praticar em Miami.
Acredito que estamos indo na direção certa e que o Niten tem um futuro brilhante nos Estados Unidos.
Manhã histórica em Miami: Chegamos.

Konbawa!
Nosso primeiro dia em Miami em preparação para Encontro Pan-Americano ultrapassaram minhas expectativas.
Os grupos Brasileiros, Argentinos e Americanos se entrosaram muito bem e apoiaram uns aos outros durante o dia inteiro. Eu tive a oportunidade de falar com a maioria dos participantes e recebi ótimos comentários de todos.
Ouvi de um americano que recebeu seu 1º Kyu (Graduação) hoje: "Eu não gosto de acordar cedo. O único dia que faço isso é o dia das aulas do Niten"
Acredito que estamos indo na direção certa e que o Niten tem um futuro brilhante nos Estados Unidos.
Arigato gozaimashita.
Sayounara" Barreto - Aluno Niten São Paulo
"Na primeira vez que vim ao Japão disse que os ensinamentos do Sensei e do Niten me ajudaram muito, especialmente para não cometer gafes e evitar problemas.
Nesta segunda vez não foi diferente. Ao procurar emprego e ao falar com meus chefes japoneses por exemplo, as palavras que o Sensei nos passa são importantes e causam admiração quando as reconhecemos e as recitamos: Majime, isshokenme, sei sei do do, entre outras.
Mas o que me impressionou foi que, ao ficar um mês nos EUA, lá também o Niten funciona!
Ao me portar seguindo os ensinamentos do Niten, recebia elogios e todos me achavam agradável e educado. Ao andar na rua como se estivesse no dojo, seguindo a etiqueta e os costumes japoneses ensinados pelo Sensei, você tem as portas do mundo abertas.
Me senti realmente assim, como se pudesse ir a qualquer lugar do planeta e ser aceito, graças ao jeito Niten de ser.
Arigatougozaimashitá! Sayounara!"

O Instituto Niten vem divulgando nos Cafés com o Sensei e nas redes Sociais, alguns trechos dos Momentos de Ouro
Kenjutsu
the original samurai sword combat technique
For his second Workshop in the USA, Sensei Jorge Kishikawa will be accompanied by several graduates, and will introduce the whole syllabus of Niten Institute"s practice of Kenjutsu: the varied ancient techniques and their application in free sparring, the philosophy and the tradition that fascinates his more than 1000 students on different continents.
In teaching the samurai sword arts for more than 40 years, Sensei Jorge Kishikawa has brought together techniques from innumerable samurai styles and modernized their application to combat training. Among many technical achievements, Sensei Jorge Kisihkawa earned the highest rank in the Niten Ichi Ryu style (founded by Miyamoto Musashi during the first half of the 17th century) from grand master Gosho Motoharu.
The combination of his outstanding technical skills, with the philosophy and knowledge gained through 50 years of close interaction with Japanese masters generated a unique practice experience that has been passed to his students in the Niten Institute since 1993, and is now also available in the US at the first dojos in Florida and Colorado.
You are welcome to join us in this Workshop for a strong introduction to Kenjutsu Combat!
Kenjutsu is the name given to the techniques developed by renowned samurai, which are still practiced in Japan in the form of katas (pre-defined movements that simulate combat using a wooden sword).
Kendo is the sport created by simplifying Kenjutsu techniques into 4 basic strokes and one kamae (posture/stance), using a modern Bogu (armor) and Shinai (bamboo sword).
Kenjutsu Combat, created by Sensei Jorge Kishikawa, is the application of ancient Kenjutsu techniques in combat with modern Bogu and Shinai, making sparring training possible, without the limits of Kendo. This allows for the use of other weapons, such as Kodachi (shortsword), two swords, and Naginata (Japanese pole-arm).

We received Kenzo in the state of Florida this August. Senpai went to Orlando in the Kissimmee Dojo and also in the Miami/Weston Dojo. It was a trip filled with training, talking, learning and also fun! Senpai Kenzo practiced with everyone, training almost every day of his visit and also took a time to go to Fort Lauderdale just to feel the waters of the North Atlantic in his feet. We thank Senpai Kenzo for his visit and wish he can come back again soon. (...) Continues (complete post) |
After the Workshop with Senpai Kenzo, a Biirudo with the students.
We had a intense training with Senpai Kenzo, so nothing better than to relax with food and cold drinks! Not only that, but we could talk with Kenzo Senpai and learn more about the Bushido. In a more relaxed enviroment, more teachings and secrets are passed, not only about techniques, but mainly about Samurai and Japanese culture.
With this biirudo we say sayounara to Senpai Kenzo in Weston and wish him good luck in his next step.
Arigatou gozaimashita!
Sunday August 20th Workshop by Senpai Kenzo in our Weston dojo.
A lot of new techniques and secrets were revealed and Senpai Kenzo did Keiko (1 on 1 practice) with every participant.
In the end, everyone was exausted but happy, with the sentiment of gratitude and the certanty that a big step foward was taken.
Arigatou gozaimashita Senpai!
Gambatte Niten Miami/Weston!
Saturday August 19th we had the presence of Senpai Kenzo in our Miami/WESTON dojo!

Thank you Sensei Jorge Kishikawa for this opportunity and thank you Senpai Kenzo for the visit.
Arigatougozaimashita!

1st Colorado Kenjutsu Workshop with Senpai Helio Kenzo Dino!
Attendees came from around the Greater Denver area to participate in the first Niten Institute workshop in the state of Colorado, while our visiting Senpai, Kenzo Dino, brought his positive energy all the way from Rio De Janeiro, Brazil.
Senpai Kenzo taught everyone about the origins of Niten, the Institute today, and how training helps us improve ourselves.
During our demonstrations, I really enjoyed fighting with Kenzo-Senpai and I worked hard to show the attendees our NITO (two-sword) stances.
Everyone really enjoyed our demonstration of KEIKO (open combat), so when their chance came to put on the armor themselves, no one hesitated. Kenzo-Senpai pushed everyone to work hard and really draw out their energy. By the end of the three hours, it was obvious from everyone’s tired but happy faces that they had enjoyed the workshop.
Arigatou gozaimashita to Kenzo-Senpai and all our participants for making our first Colorado workshop a success! We look forward to training with you again soon!
Gambatte kudasai,
