大東流合気柔術とは 　大東流合気柔術。この武術は、元来が会津藩の上級武士のみに伝えられた、殿中の護身術であります。明治時代まで門外不出の武術でしたが、会津出身の武田惣角先生によって、世間に知られるようになりました。 動く坐禅 　「斬らない斬られない。殴らない殴られない。蹴らない蹴られない」 　武田惣角先生の高弟である堀川幸道先生は、武道をこのように位置づけています。試合形式の武道や格闘技のように、相手を倒すことが目的ではなく、自己の精神性を高めていく。これこそが、理想的な、武道の平和な理念なのです。坐禅の指導が専門である私は、この武術の捉われのなさが、禅の悟りの境地に非常に近いことに気づきました。大東流合気柔術の技は、「動く坐禅」である、と言い換えることができます。 生涯現役の武術 　この武術の魅力は、年齢や性別を問わず、誰にでも習得できるところにあります。現在の門下生は、下は幼稚園児から、上は古希を過ぎた方までいらっしゃいます。中年で身体が硬く、しかも非力である私でも、さほど難なく習得できました。一生涯続けられる、数少ない武術です。 是非体験してみてください
