Yoseikan Budo

1. The composite martial art developed by Minoru MOCHIZUKI which incorporates elements of the pre-war AIKI BUDO of Morihei UESHIBA, judo, karate, old-style jujutsu and kenjutsu. 2. A composite martial system taught by Hiroo MOCHIZUKI in France. Although strongly influenced by his father Minoru’s Yoseikan Budo, Hiroo’s approach encompasses both eastern and western martial systems and includes a form of competition based on a point system. The first world competition of Yoseikan Budo was held in September 1990 in France.
