Kyudo Assembly with Kanjuro Shibata XXI Sensei

After the retirement of Shibata Sendai XX in October 2011, his adopted son, Shibata Kanjuro XXI, was recognized as the 21st in the Shibata Lineage and assumed the duties of Imperial Bow Maker to the Emperor of Japan. Sensei lives in Kyoto, Japan where he has operated a yumi or bow-making workshop for over two decades.

Karmê Chöling and Seiko Kyudojo look forward to welcoming you to the Kyudo Assembly with Kanjuro Shibata XXI Sensei. This is an opportunity to come together for an extended period of group practice in a retreat setting. Along with practical instruction, Sensei will share his extensive knowledge of yumi care and construction.
