+Information

Enrollment:

If you are interested in enrolling as a student of Niten (virtual or in-person), please fill out the ONLINE FORM and follow the steps indicated. There is no registration fee. After submitting the form, we will contact you through whatsapp and guide you to complete the registration, which can be done ONLINE. MORE INFORMATION ON GETTING STARTED HERE

Monthly fees:

By joining the Niten Institute, you are opening doors to the ancient culture, history, techniques, and philosophies of the Samurais. Your monthly fee not only ensures your participation in face-to-face classes but also grants you exclusive online meetings with Sensei Jorge Kishikawa, complemented by interactive online classes throughout the week. Remember: each dojo (training location) has its own fee structure that might occasionally be adjusted. Visit the nearest dojo to learn about the updated monthly fees.

Equipment:

Beginners can train with T-shirt and sport pants (Judo pants, jogging pants, or similar).
The definitive uniform consists of the Institute´s custom Kimono and Hakama, and the basic practice swords are a standard bamboo shinai and a wooden bokken. Other equipment, such as combat armor (bogu) and additional weapons, can be acquired according to the progression of each student. For the combat armor, there is also the option of renting armor from the dojo. For details about equipment, uniform or rental availability, please ask the instructors of the Dojo.

Getting Started

Visit a training session:

All training sessions are open to interested observers. Please just schedule your visit thru our WhatsApp contact.

Experimental Classes:

If you are interested in participating, but not sure about enrolling, you can take part in experimental lessons for your first two visits. We will provide the necessary equipment, and you won’t have to worry about enrollment and equipment fees unless you decide to continue. The ideal outfit for beginners is a dark T-shirt and breathable workout pants.

Adults:

Adults of all ages, men and women can train. There are no specific prerequisites nor the need to previously have physical training or experience in martial arts. The training brings technical, physical and interior progress to all ages and stages of life.

Children:

Children from 12 years old can participate in all training sessions.

Training:

Sessions are from 1 to 2 hours in length. Training sessions are made up of various parts, warm-up, basics of strokes and techniques, sequence training and combat. Combat training is usually divided up into groups of beginners, intermediates, and graduates, while at other times the more experienced may work with and guide the most novice. How frequently one should train depends on the potential of each student. With training just once a week, it will be easy to to see technical progress, physical and health-related benefits, and the assimilation of the principles and values of the Bushido philosophy. A lower frequency of training is still valid, and can provide results for students with less availability.

Philosophy:

During any visit to the Dojo, try to stay until the end of the session and participate in the Golden Moments, when the training is complemented with elements of Japanese culture and Bushido samurai philosophy.

KIR Method:

KIR is a training method aimed at the physical, mental and emotional development of the student, giving little emphasis to competitiveness and discouraging the use of force. With this positive energy, the student feels confident to fully develop their potential.

What we train

Kenjutsu:

The art of the samurai sword is still alive and can be practiced today, with the closest approximation of the experiences by which samurai lived for centuries. There are hundreds of stances and fighting techniques that are practiced during training sessions with the use of appropriate equipment for protection and safety.

Within Kenjutsu is practiced the Niten Ichi Ryu style, created by the samurai Miyamoto Musashi Sensei. The name of this style means “Two Skies as One,” alluding to the famous techniques of two swords, able to defeat the most skilled opponents with whom Musashi-Sensei crossed swords.
Welcome to the
Niten Institute
Florida Dojo


The practice in the USA started with the first Kenjutsu Combat workshop in North America, on February 6th 2017 with our Sensei Jorge Kishikawa.
Regular practices in Florida already began with weekly training classes at the Community Center in Weston-FL. Come and join us. Be Welcome.

Kenjutsu Combat, created by Sensei Jorge Kishikawa, is when you apply ancient Kenjutsu techniques into combat with a modern armor (Bogu) and using bamboo swords (Shinai).
Regular classes are currently offered once a week, but make sure to check our schedule constantly for special guests, events or occasional cancelations.

Come discover the way of the sword!
