Gyokushin-ryū Ninpō ("The Jeweled Heart School") is one of the nine schools of martial arts within the Bujinkan sphere of training. It was founded in the mid-16th century by Sasaki Goeman Teruyoshi, who was also then-sōke of Gyokko Ryu, which explains why the two styles are so similar. Gyokushin-ryū is considered a style of koshijutsu. Masaaki Hatsumi is the current and 21st sōke. [1]
[edit] Techniques of the Gyokushin-ryū
According to the Bujinkan, Gyokushin Ryu has sutemi waza techniques, and is more focused on the art and techniques of espionage, rather than fighting. Its most prominent weapon is the lasso (nagenawa). [2]
