Zenzan Dojo

Zenzan Dojo was founded in 2005 by James Huss, Shihan. Shihan Huss has studied martial arts for over 37 years and has trained and taught in the US, China, Taiwan, S. Korea, the Philippines, Japan, and Thailand. After extensive training and study in karatedo, aikido, and tai chi chuan, Shihan Huss developed a martial system called Hokkon-hō Budo. Hokkon-hō means rooting method. It is not a style but a methodology and is influenced by the arts of Shihan Huss's two most influencial teachers: the aikido and karatedo of Sensei Roy Suenaka and the tai chi chuan and kung fu of Shifu Dong Zhengxiong. 

Zenzan Dojo currently holds classes open to the public at Jane Lawton Community Center in Chevy Chase, Maryland. Classes include elements of tai chi chuan, karatedo, and aikido, and are suitable for all levels of fitness and experience. The Zenzan Dojo YouTube channel is intended to support active students of the dojo. The videos contain are not intended for use without proper instruction.
