ISBF - INTERNATIONAL SOGOBUDO FEDERATION
The International Sogo Budo Federation (ISBF) is a global organization dedicated to the preservation and perpetuation
of genuine, classical martial sciences. The ISBF promotes training, collaboration and cultural exchange throughout the world
using these traditional martial sciences. The ISBF goal is to promote greater understanding of martial sciences by exploding
the myths that surround public perceptions of martial arts by providing insight, advice, and resources for the martial science
professional.
The ISBF is comprised of schools and training groups throughout
the world that participate in information and training exchanges that provide a modern day equivalent to the ancient practice
of mushashugyo - warrior travelling for training experience.
The ISBF exists to promote this exchange and facilitate
martial sciences knowledge transfer. Sogobudo and Sogobujutsu are the principles that underline all of our training. Sogobujutsu/budo
is a training axiom that emphasizes the martial or military aspects of training, rather than the artistic or sport elements.
The ISBF works coordinates with the Kokusai Sogobujutsu/budo Renmei - All Japan Sogobujutsu/budo
Federation (AJSBF) and the Kokusai Sogobujutsu Renmei - International Martial Sciences Federation (IMSF) so that Shinbu and
Junbu is preserved for all members.
