The Ogasawara-style equestrian archery technique as well as the martial spirit has been handed down in the Ogasawara family from father to son since 1187 (over 800 years!). We visited the Dojo (training area) and watched how contemporary people practice. Incidentally, one of the board members of the Ogasawara-style association is my middle school classmate Mr. O., so he showed/explained us the essence of the art. Thanks, Mr. O.!
鎌倉時代以来一子相伝で小笠原家に伝わる弓術と射礼。小笠原流鎌倉古式弓道保存会の皆さんにそのお稽古の様子を見せていただきました。保存会の理事の一人がたまたま私の中学・高校時代の同級生のO君だったので、親切にいろいろと説明してくれました。O君どうもありがとう!
