Benevolent Heart Dojo

The Benevolent Heart Dojo was established in 2000 in NYC.

Our members study a family of nine Japanese martial traditions with deep roots in Japan's feudal past, passed from generation to generation for close to a thousand years.

The emphasis of these traditions is spiritual and physical preservation. Moreover, the essence of these traditions is explained from a historical perspective and applied in a modern context. Thus extremely diverse sets of self-protection skills are covered in this art.
