Noguchi Shihan is a longtime student (47 years in 2019) of Hatsumi Soke, and teaches at his own dojo or the Hombu twice a week. His skill in Taijutsu, Kenjutsu, Kyojutsu & henka are unparalleled. It is common to have him place you in a position which forces you to fall, only to find him giggling at you as your mind tries to comprehend how he did it.
