About Koseki
The Lineage
Kōseki
Kōseki means foundation — like stone, steady and enduring. Our lineage honors the timeless martial traditions of Japan, passed with respect from teacher to student. Here, we carry forward the discipline, philosophy, and etiquette that shape not just skilled practitioners, but whole human beings.
Permanence & Foundation
The name Kōseki reflects permanence — a foundation upon which students may build their training. Just as a stone withstands time and weather, discipline and respect allow us to grow steadily in mind and body.
Our dojo follows the path of budō — the martial way — not only as a system of physical defense, but as a means to cultivate balance, humility, and inner strength. Every bow, every repetition, every lesson is part of this transmission.
Our instructor brings years of training, rooted in tradition, to guide each student with care. The lineage we inherit is not just one of technique, but of spirit: a way of life marked by perseverance, respect for others, and dedication to continual improvement.
Mission
Where tradition and discipline meet — training body, mind, and spirit in the timeless martial arts of Japan.
At Kōseki Budōkai, we honor the ancient path of the warrior while making martial arts accessible to students of all ages and experience levels. Our practice blends striking, grappling, and weapon arts with an emphasis on personal growth, discipline, and mindful training. With guidance, respect, and care, we help every student cultivate strength, focus, and confidence — walking the timeless path of the warrior in today’s world.
