WELCOME TO TORONTO KENJUTSU

Welcome to the home of Toronto Kenjutsu. We are a martial arts group dedicated to the practice of classical Japanese swordsmanship — specifically the style of Katori Shinto Ryu, as taught by Master Sugino Yukihiro. This dojo was founded in 2007 by Corey Reid with the intention of bringing classical Katori Shinto Ryu swordsmanship to Toronto.

We are attached to Sugino dojo and work closely with Master Sugino and other members of his teaching staff. Corey Reid is a direct student of Master Sugino and studied under him in Japan for several years.

On this site you will find class schedules, a description of our practice and articles on the art of Japanese swordsmanship. Please browse around and see what interests you.
