Someya Kenichi Dai Shihan is one of the most important teachers in the Bujinkan. He has a strong emphasis in kihon (basics) and has a love of sword techniques. In his training in Japan there is a sense of study and a connection to the history and tradition of budo. He usually begins his training by asking those present what they want to train and without fail delivers. Helping everyone he can on their own personal budo journey (shugyo).
