Tsukahara Bokuden, through his martial arts journey across Japan, imparted his swordsmanship skills, which have been preserved and inherited as Bokuden-ryu in Matsumoto Domain (present-day Nagano Prefecture). Kai Kuniyuki Taishin, inheriting Bokuden-ryu, practices various martial arts under the belief that "martial arts are unified."
