Glossary of Terms:
understanding.
Otome Ryu ()- lit: that which flows but remains at home was a ryu-
ha or school that was either sponsored by or kept secret by a feudal clan.
Densho ()- lit: Written Teachings are scrolls normally awarded to
students of Japanese koryu or Old Japanese Martial Arts. Densho act as a
both a text on martial arts and certification (having the names of the
author, recipient, and date issued).
Mokuroku ()- lit: Catalog is a type of scroll usually awarded to
students after several years of dedication. The details differ from school to
school, but a mokuroku consists of a (partial or complete) list of kata,
fighting strategy, military strategy, esoteric or religious teachings,
philosophy, or other facets of learning.
Jun-Menkyo () lit: Orderly License; it is a scroll issued by several
ryu or schools, usually prior to the Menkyo scroll.
Menkyo ()- lit: License/Permit; differs from school to school, but is
normally a scroll of high level awarded to those who have attained a
profound level of skill or understanding in their respective
school.
Menkyo Kaiden ()- lit: License of Full-Transmission; it is a scroll
that normally denotes that the receiver has attained a superior command
or even mastery of their ryu or school.
Inkyo ()- lit: Certificate of Proficiency; is a license given to those
who have either finished their training or have been given permission to
establish their own dojo.
Inka ()- lit: Certificate of Proficiency; is a license given to those who
have either finished their training or have been given permission to
establish their own dojo. (Same as Inkyo)
Shihan ()- lit: Instructor; is a term often misused today. A Shihan is a
person who was fully licensed in their respective ryuor school and by the
grace of their teachers, allowed to run or operate their own dojo or
training hall.
Soke ()- lit: Head of Family; it is a term that has been widely misused
and misunderstood (especially within the last eighty years). Soke or
Patriarch is the head of a family house hold. Japanese families were
traditionally extremely hierarchical. Families following Confucian
doctrine were divided into households based solely on ones age or
importance in the family. The patriarch of the family (normally belonging
to the highest house of the family) had the power to make final decisions
on behalf of the entire family, issue or cut off financial support to lower
households, or in extreme cases hamon () or excommunicate a family

relative. It was a very powerful position. Though the principle has existed
in Japanese martial systems for sometime, but it has became more or less
exaggerated in the 20th and 21st century. It has become a way for a Shihan
to consolidate power as well as preserve the integrity of his/her martial
art.
Hanshi ()- lit: Instructor of Warriors; it is an honorary title issued by
a number of organizations in Japan.
San-Dou-no-Hanshi (): was a honorary title given to those
that received Hanshi in Kendo, Iaido, and Jodo from Nippon Butokukai or
Zen Nippon Kendo Renmei (All Japan Kendo Federation).
Dai Nippon Teikoku Kendo Kata ()- lit: The Greater
Kendo Kata of Imperial Japan was the pre-cursor to the Nippon Kendo
Kata ().
Tenranjiai ()- lit: match [game] held while in the presence of the
Emperor; a Tenranjiai is not just related to a martial art contest, but in any
contest where the Emperor is watching. The martial art related
Tenranjiai(s) occurred in 1895 and 1940. Nakayama Hakudo and Takano
Sasaburo demonstrated at the Showa Tenranjiai () or the
Tenranjiai of the Showa Emperor. Since that time the Tenranjiai have
occurred in modern sports like baseball and more traditional sport like
Sumo.

Hi Jeff,
do you prepare a continuation of these articles? I think
that the theme about Nakayama sensei and his
successors(Hashimoto Toyo, Nakayama Zendo, Danzaki
Tomoaki etc.) are interesting for many people. Thanks a
LOT for the existing articles and for next informations in
future.
Best Regards Petr
