Kumiai Ryu

Kumiai Ryu Martial Arts System (KRMAS) was founded by O-Hanshi Kevin Blundell Kaiso in Orange NSW in July 1989. O-Hanshi was inspired to create a progressive system of martial arts that was welcoming for different ages and abilities, whilst also acknowledging the history of the traditional arts. O-Hanshi created an inclusive training system with the focus on technique & quality at the forefront of the club’s progression. At the time of starting KRMAS, O-Hanshi had already clocked up over 20 years of Martial Arts training in several Martial Arts disciplines including years of hands-on experience in the Security Industry where he held a Master Security Licence.
