Sekiguchi Ujitane · Lineage tree

Description

Japanese jujutsu master of the Sekiguchi Shinshin-ryu school. Served as jujutsu instructor in the Kishu domain, where Handa Yataro studied Sekiguchi Shinshin-ryu under him from 1860. Wolf (2016) describes Handa's later Daito-ryu jujutsu as an obscure development of Sekiguchi-ryu jujutsu.

  Probable

  Handa trained in Sekiguchi Shinshin-ryu under Sekiguchi Ujitane from 1860 per JA Wikipedia, which cites the 1900 biographical dictionary and Fukuoka (2021); the single J-STAGE attestation is of Handa as an established Dojima master by 1873-74, consistent with early training.

  The evidence favours the claim and nothing credible contradicts it, but it falls short of establishing it.
