Junsei Ryu Bujutsu Renmei: System Lineage

The following image details part of the official system lineage of the Junsei Ryu Hoshin Jutsu Renmei. Obviously with more than a handful of generations any such diagram becomes a highly complex genealogy. Further details regarding the named Sensei can be made available on request. This simplified version of the official lineage is presented here for public viewing.  

Whilst we make no claims to teaching their methods and techniques verbatim; it is a simple matter of respect for us to name the styles practiced by our forebears individually. Some of the Koryu and Gendai Budo detailed in our Lineage include (In Alphabetical Order): 

Aiki-In-Yo-Ho, Akishima Ryu, Akiyama Yoshin Ryu, Alpha School Of Jujitsu, Daito Ryu, Daito Ryu Aiki-Jujitsu, Fujian Shaolin, Fusen Ryu, Giwamonken Shaolin, Hakko Ryu, Hankyo Kempo Ju-Jitsu, Shorinji Kempo, Hokushin Itto Ryu, Hokushin Muso Ryu, Hontai Yoshin Ryu, Hozoin Ryu, Itosu Ryu, Jikishin Saito Ichi Ryu, Jikishinkage Ryu, Kashima Shinkage Ryu, Kendo, Kito Ryu, Kodokan Judo, Koshu Ryu, Lajos Defence System, Minamoto Ryu, Misoguchi, Miura Yoshin Ryu, Nakamura Yoshin Ryu, Onno-Ha Itto-Ryu, Oshiki Ryu, Shaolin Chuan Fa, Shin No Shindo Ryu, Shin Shin Ryu, Shindo Yoshin Ryu, Shinkage Ryu, Shorin Ryu, Shotokan, Shuri-Te, Sumo, Takeda Ryu, Takeda Ryu Aiki-Budo, Takeda-Ha, Te, Tegatani, Tenjin Shinyo Ryu, Tenshin Shinyo Ryu, Tode, Tomari Te, Totsuka Yoshin Ryu, Tuchiura Ryu?, Wado Ryu Jujitsu-Kempo, Xingyiguan, Yoshin Ryu

"It is shameful not to know the clan history. It is best that every warrior in service should have a deep and detailed knowledge of the origin of his lords clan, the facts concerning the generations of the clans ancestors and the stories concerning all lineal relations of the lord. A warrior should also know the background of those family retainers who are famous throughout the area. This goes without saying for men who have served for a long time, but also applies to newcomers"
