What we do

Health exercises using a walking stick ( and a pincer ) will start on March 29 ( Friday )!

The exercises are based on Shintaido and various martial arts. !

Gentle preparatory exercises using a cane, consciousness toward the cane ・ Earth ・ Heaven ・, and togetherness with fellow participants. There are many exercises, exercises that move softly and precisely from the torso, exercises that are funny and just make you laugh, exercises that are extremely soothing to all participants, and so on. In addition, the cane is used carefully and symmetrically from the fingertips to the trunk, which stimulates the brain and keeps the body young. Let's rediscover the naturalness that each one of us has in our body and play with it, bringing back the childhood spirit !

Not only will your mind be liberated and your body become lighter, softer and stronger, but since it consists of the essence of martial arts, you will also be able to practice self-defense techniques ( without even knowing it. It also helps you to learn timing, timing, and body manipulation ) without even knowing it. I always carry a walking stick with me when I walk or hike around my house. A walking stick is not suspicious even if you carry it with you on a regular basis, and it can be a reliable self-defense tool if the need arises. Let's get to know each other and become friends !

Anyone can do this "health cane exercise" just like learning yoga or tai chi !
Senior citizens, women, men, and anyone who wants to be more cheerful and energetic. Everyone is welcome to join us.
