Literally, the school of the harmonization of the spiritual heart between heaven and earth, through the teaching it carries, provides through an internal martial art, of the koryu type, a spiritual and esoteric teaching carrying values of personal development and harmony with people and the universe.
The teaching is based on Shu-Ha-Ri principles.
The transmission of knowledge, of the ‘okuden’ type, follows the 20 ‘kyokun’, precepts which are prerequisites for all internal martial practice. (neija)

The spearheads of our school are the efficiency and the realism of the practice and the investment, the rigour and regularity in the work. The aim is to enable the practitioner to ensure their psychological, physical and emotional integrity in a legal, benevolent but positioned way.
In order to assess this, an overall grading system is applied to assess progression through the school's curriculum.
This is made up of four very distinct components which converge towards
the same goal:
-Security and internal unification-
GI JUTSU (technical art)
IYASHIJUTSU (art of care)
SEISHINTEKI HATSUIKO
(Spiritual Development)
NEIJIA (Internal work)
A great power implies a great responsibility, the master, as in any respectable school, is morally obligated not to transmit profound knowledge (higi) or too dangerous techniques (chishi gi) to a person likely to misuse it.
Thus, before receiving the ultimate teaching, the student must have demonstrated commitment, diligence, and demonstrated moral values and the qualities of heart necessary for any good practitioner.
