Yamana Shinkurō

Description

Japanese jujutsu master of the Tenjin Shin'yo-ryu school. Handa Yataro studied Tenjin Shin'yo-ryu under him, and Handa later devised the Daito-ryu jujutsu curriculum largely from that school. A related figure, Yamana Shinjuro (山名新十郎) of Osaka, whose dojo Handa succeeded to on settling in the city in 1876, is regarded as a relation of Shinkuro.

  JA Wikipedia records Tenjin Shin'yo-ryu study under Yamana Shinkuro, whose teaching is central to the Daito-ryu jujutsu curriculum Handa later created. The Yamana Shinjuro of Osaka (whose dojo Handa succeeded to) is regarded as a relation of Yamana Shinkuro.

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