The Forgotten Martial Arts of Legendary Martial Artist Sakura Koji Kazutaka
Based on various martial arts learned in China and the principles of internal martial arts from Master Wang Shujin, Sakura Koji Kazutaka combined techniques from Iaijutsu, traditional Jujutsu, and traditional Karate to create a unique system under the Dai Nippon Kobukai. This system eschewed traditional forms, focusing solely on practical, cross-method combat techniques. This video unveils the remarkable martial arts legacy left by Sakura Koji Kazutaka, presented by his direct successor, Master Toshio Okabayashi.

Sakura Koji Kazutaka (1913-1975)
- Born in Mito City, Ibaraki Prefecture. From a young age, he was immersed in martial arts. During his youth, he traveled to China to master Chinese martial arts. Upon returning to Japan, he studied various styles of Karate and trained in Toyama-ryu Battojutsu. When Taiji master Wang Shujin visited Japan, he studied Taijiquan under him. Integrating these diverse martial arts, he founded the Dai Nippon Kobukai in Akabane, Tokyo, in 1962. Known for its rigorous and competitive sparring sessions, this dojo cultivated a practical martial arts system. Many students, including Toshio Okabayashi, were deeply influenced by his teachings.
