Springtime in Japan is a season of great significance: it marks the awakening of nature and the blooming of flowers, particularly the magnificent Japanese cherry blossoms, known as sakura. These flowers, historically symbolic of the aesthetics and spirit of the samurai, continue to be celebrated today in the Land of the Rising Sun with events dedicated to Budo.
Following this ancient tradition, thanks to the commitment of the Taki no Kan association in promoting Japanese martial and traditional culture, the fifteenth edition of the Budospring will take place in the province of Verona.
The event, organized by Taki no Kan in collaboration with the international organization Koryu Budo Seifukai and under the patronage of the Municipality of Castel d’Azzano, will offer three days filled with lessons and conferences dedicated to high-level martial arts, featuring renowned masters from Italy and abroad. This gathering is a unique international event.
The sessions will be scheduled in an alternate manner, allowing participants to explore and deepen their knowledge of various martial disciplines. Even beginners will have the opportunity to experience both ancient and traditional arts as well as modern competitive disciplines.
Beyond the technical Budo lessons, the program includes workshops on Psychology in Budo, sessions of the traditional Japanese board game Go, and, by reservation in collaboration with the Kanyukai society, lessons in Japanese language, calligraphy (shodo), and origami.
The Budospring is thus an unmissable event for martial arts and Japanese culture enthusiasts, as well as a valuable opportunity for those who wish to take their first steps into this fascinating world.
“Budospring” is organized in close collaboration with Koryu Budo Seifukai, an international organization dedicated to promoting and preserving Japanese martial traditions.
