Ikeda Moritoshi Born in 1961 (Showa 36), Ikeda Moritoshi began his martial arts journey at the Harukaze-kan Dojo of the Nihon Denryu Heiho Motobu Kenpo, founded by Genshiro Takano. For 15 years until Takano's passing in 1976, he studied Motobu Kenpo. In 1977, along with karate practitioners associated with the Honbu family, he established the Honbu-ryu Karate-do Nihon Karate-do Honbu-kai under the leadership of Asaki Motobu Sensei, the son of Motobu Asayo Sensei. During this period, he joined the Honbu Gotenbu Kobudo Association and studied under the 11th generation head, Honbu Asayo Sensei. He continued his dedication to mastering the Ryukyu royal martial arts, "Honbu Gotenbu," as the 12th generation head under the tutelage of Master Seikichi Uehara until Uehara's passing in 2004. Ikeda Moritoshi currently leads the Hando-kan Dojo in Saitama Prefecture, actively preserving and promoting the martial arts learned from Genshiro Takano and Seikichi Uehara for future generations.
