In fact, the 16th inheritor of Sosuishi-ryu Jujutsu, Master Manzo Shitama serves as the Director.

The Headquarters of the SJJK is the record center for complete and accurate files of all administrative matters pertaining to and concerning Sosuishi-ryu Jujutsu. The files contain the names, locations and districts of all Sosuishi-ryu Dojo, Branch and District representatives, members names, grading achievements, etc.
ALL MEMBERS receive a “Certificate of Membership” and ALL BLACK BELTS receive certificates of promotion from Master Shitama in Japan as well.
Although many claim to hold grades in Sosuishi-ryu very few actually do. The Sosuishi-ryu Jujutsu Kai prides itself in maintaining quality not quantity.
Anyone interested in Sosuishi-ryu Jujutsu as passed down from father to son since 1650 may contact the Seibukan Dojo, the Headquarters for the Sosuishi-ryu Jujutsu Kai- for the name(s) and location(s) of legitimate, recognized instructors, and to inquire about membership.
