祖父（川上徳蔵：武道専門学校卒業・剣道範士八段）、父（川上岑志：関西大学卒業・剣道教士７段、剣道界の長嶋と言われ、様々な偉業を成し遂げられた方）から指導を受け、父と二人三脚で数多くの生徒を指導して、父４５年、私３０年、基本を中心とした剣道で多くの剣道家を育て上げました。
今は忘れかけられている日本古来からの武道剣道である川上剣道を、国内だけではなく、海外の方々にも伝え残したいと思います。
剣道の基本動作は、社会でも大切である基本を指導するものだと確信しています。
Guidance from grandfather (Tokuzo Kawakami: graduated from martial arts school, Kendo Hanshi 8th Dan), father (Takashi Kawakami: graduated from Kansai University, Kendo Kyoushi 7th Dan, known as Nagashima in the Kendo world, who has accomplished various feats) After that, my father and I worked together to teach many students, and over the course of my father’s 45 years and I, for 30 years, we have trained many kendo practitioners with a focus on the basics of kendo.
I would like to pass on Kawakami Kendo, a martial art of kendo from ancient Japan, which is now almost forgotten, not only to people in Japan, but also to people overseas.
I firmly believe that the basic movements of kendo teach the basics that are important in society.
