Ryukyu Kobujutsu originated in the Ryukyu Islands of Okinawa and has a fascinating history spanning hundreds of years. In Japan Matsuri they will demonstrate some of the Ryukyu traditional weapons in Kihon (basics), Kata (form) and Kumite (fighting) and show the unique attributes for each weapon.

Watch this exciting demonstration and learn more about the art of Ryukyu Kobujutsu at Japan Matsuri.

🎌Japan Matsuri: Performance Announcement!🎌

Yosakoi London - Temuzu 天夢手 - an amateur Yosakoi dance group based in London. Yosakoi is a Japanese dance style that combines elements of traditional Japanese dance and music with a variety of modern-day influences (such as jazz, rock, hip hop, and many more).

They have performed all over the UK and in Europe, and in 2019, they were awarded the official Yosakoi Ambassador title by Kōchi prefecture, the birthplace of Yosakoi. This title is given to teams from around the world to help promote the art and share the joy of Yosakoi.

Yosakoi is a fun, energetic dance and open to anyone. If you’re interested in giving it a go, they are always looking for people to join them!
