Living Arts Studio

Living Arts is proud to bring the first traditional Japanese martial arts and self-defense class to Columbia City, Indiana. Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu is not a sport martial art. There are no competitions. Rooted in nine traditional samurai and ninjutsu schools, Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu is a traditional martial art for the protection of body, mind, and spirit. Used by the United States Marine Corps, the FBI, Special Forces, and law enforcement officers alike, this martial art is an efficient, practical means of self-defense.
As an applied martial art, the classes encompass both armed and unarmed self-defense, including training in classical Japanese weapons and modern, everyday weapons, such as car keys, pens, belts, knives and firearms. Bujinkan martial arts classes emphasize training your awareness skills and the understanding of fundamental principles of structure, timing, distance, and angle.
