WELCOME
Shinjinkai, The Japanese Martial Arts Society, is a community united by a common purpose: intensive study of classical and modern martial systems arising from Japan's warrior tradition.
Our headquarters is the Shinjinkan, founded in the mid 1980's and now a beautiful traditional dojo on Chicago's north side.

Shinjinkai dedicates its efforts to the memory of our dojo's founder, the late Aikido and Zen master Tenzan Gensho Rokoji (Fumio Toyoda Sensei, 1947-2001):
"Budo [the martial Way] means to live and to die fully: with full awareness, with sharpness, with intensity, with compassion. It's a good path, and it's open for anyone. So let's walk together."
- Fumio Toyoda Sensei
