RyuShinKan - Kenshukai
On August 31, 2010, Taika honored me by naming my school RyuShinKan. Ryu is short for Ryukyu, as in "the Ryukyu Kingdom" and the first character of his art RyuTe®. Shin is heart or soul. Kan is simply school. So he gave the school the name meaning "The Soul of RyuKyu". This was a great and unexpected honor. The school is still hosted at this site, and still considered a 'Research Club' (Kenshūkai).
