Gyokushin-ryū Ryū Ninpō is one of the 9 ryūha that are a part of the Bujinkan Budō Taijutsu taught by Soke Masaaki Hatsumi. Gyokushin Ryu was founded in the mid-16th century by Sasaki Goeman Teruyoshi, who was also a Soke of Gyokko Ryu.
Gyokushin-ryū Ryū in English means the Jeweled Heart School. This is we have included a Jeweled Heart as a centerpiece for the design.
Gyokushin Ryu is also one of the 3 ninpo schools within the Bujinkan system. It is known for sutemi throws within its fighting system. Nagenawa and Lasso are a specialty of this school along with the kusari fundo, ninjutsu, koppojutsu, jutaijutsu, kenjutsu, and iaijutsu. Gyokushin Ryu also was well versed in the stratagem and espionage side of ninjutsu.
In this design we have included:
- The kanji in the center, 玉 心 流 忍 法 or Gyokushin-ryū Ryū Ninpō
- On the left, we have an image of shinobi or ninja spying on a Daimyo or Samurai
- In the middle, we have the Jeweled Heart, which kinda looks like Mount Fuji
- On the right is an image based on a Japanese print with a warrior using a Nagenawa to bring down his opponent
The main design is located on the back of the T-shirt, with the Bujinkan Kanji on the front left chest.
This is designed for those who walk the path of Budo and wish to remind themselves along with others of the ongoing journey we are all on.
