Historique:

L'Université Internationale des Arts Martiaux (IUMA) est fondée le 20 Décembre 1990 par

Soke Keido Yamaue 10 Dan, prêtre Bouddhiste et Représentant de la Culture de Daishoji Temple Impérial et de la Saga du Palais Impérial,toujours en rapport avec la famille Impériale Japonaise

Il est né au Japon en 1946 et a obtenu son diplôme à l'Université de Ritsumeikan à Kyoto, au Japon.

 

Il est délicat de dire quand il a commencé l'Aiki Jutsu, parce qu'il est né dans une famille Budo.

Son père lui a enseigné le Judo et les techniques chiropractiques, un de ses oncles lui a enseigné le Goju Ryu Karaté à un haut niveau,et l'un de ses grand-père lui a appris l'Aiki Jutsu et l'Aiki Do,ce grand-père n'est autre que Takuma Hisa (1895-1979) qui fut le premier Menkyo Kaïden de Daïtô ryu,il est devenu un grand maître du Daito Ryu Aiki Jutsu et le fondateur de "Takuma-kai" au Japon. Aiki Jutsu était une partie de son éducation Budo dans son enfance. Actuellement,Yamaue Ryu Aiki Jutsu est liée intimement à Takeda Aiki bujutsu = Daito Ryu Aiki Jutsu.

Il a également pratiqué à très haut niveau le Shorinji Kempo (style japonais de Shaolin Kung Fu)                                     et de nombreux styles de Kung Fu chinois.

Il est bien connu dans le monde entier comme l'un des fondateurs du Nord Shaolin Kung Fu dont il est 10è Dan        un nouveau système basé sur la tradition Shaolin et du Yamaue Ryu Aïkijutsu .

Soke Yamaue reçoit plusieurs prix Budo au salon International de bourses de la renommée et de reconnaissances de partout dans le monde chaque année.

It is difficult to say when he started Aiki Jutsu, because he was born in Budo Family. His father taught him Judo and chiropractic techniques, one of his uncles taught him Go Ju Ryu Karate and one of his grandfather s taught him Aiki Jutsu and Aiki Do. Grandfather -Takuma Hisa (1895-1979) - was a great master of Daito Ryu Aiki Jutsu and the founder of  "Takuma-kai" in Japan. Aiki Jutsu was a part of his Budo education in his childhood. Yamaue Aiki Jutsu is related to Takeda Aiki Bujutsu = Daito Ryu Aiki Jutsu. He also practised Shorinji Kempo (Japanese style of Shaolin Kung Fu ) and many kinds of Chinese Kung Fu. He is well known in the world as a founder 10.DAN of Nord Shaolin Kung Fu (a new system based on northern Shaolin tradition) and Yamaue Ryu Aiki Jutsu. Soke Yamaue receives several Budo awards, International Hall of Fame awards and recognitions from all over the world every year.

The meaning of our MON
