Black belt holder, 8th dan in Shinden Ryu Jujutsu Takao Kitano is in Armenia on September 1-29.
This is his fourth visit to Armenia, where he conducts master classes for young sportsmen.
"I see that the number of people interested in our martial art is growing. It is of keen importance that Armenian sportsmen conceive the philosophy of Shinden Ryu Jujutsu, which aims to develop people's body and spirit," Kitano told journalists.
Representative of Armenia's Dai Nippon Butoku Kai Grigor Shekoyan noted that people aged between 10-55 deal with this martial art in Armenia. "As championships and international tournaments are not organized in this martial art, we participate in festivals and seminars," said Shekoyan.
