What we do
Koryukan is an international organization Founded by Sensei Medhat Darwish with it’s Hombu dojo in Montreal ,Canada
Sensei Medhat Darwish has embodied the art of Daitoryu Aiki-jujutsu which is clearly seen through his movement. His comprehension is clearly built upon years of solid research and investigation along with practical and relevant principles to demystify the concepts in order to create high performing practitioners in the art. Sensei Darwish is a fantastic resource for all instructors and martial artists.

A great way to keep refining your techniques, on a daily basis, when outside of the Dojo with a Master right in your own home. Thank you Sensei Darwish!

Over my 40 years in the martial arts, I have investigated many instructors and styles both in person and via study. Shihan Darwish demonstrates a rare ability to teach detail in easy-to-understand style. As a Master-Teacher in the public education system, pedagogy is a field-of-knowledge of mine; recognizing Darwish sensei teaches like a person who wants others to learn. He cares, is compassionate and revisits his teachings to ensure the audience/student ‘gets’ the lesson. I would highly recommend anyone interested in pursuing the koryu arts to study under Medhat sensei.

Shibucho of Usagi Jinja Také dojo -Také-den Bujinkan ninjutsuExcellent videos. The camera is as close while still showing the full body. This, combined with the different angles and clean focus, allows a clear image of the techniques. Nothing flashy, just a good video textbook of the techniques. An excellent source for beginners, who can use it to get a better understanding of the shape of the techniques, as well as for more experienced practitioners who can use is for reference and may notice the smaller details.
