The teachers of the ARZ do not have, in any manner the claim, to hold the “truth”, but they try to offer to the knowledge of their pupils, the philosophical and traditional

Founded in spring 1973 in Montreuil-sous-Bois in Paris area, the purpose of association AMT (Traditional Martial Arts) was to promote by its teaching part of knowledge of the budo and more precisely the AIKIDO, the KARATEDO, KEN JITSU, the KOBUDO and the IAIDO. Installed with the “Chalet ALFA” in the city of the Bel-Air located in the hight-Montreuil, Claude SCHRAYER (Black belt n° 569 of the CCN - Collège des Ceintures Noires / College of the Black Belts - in 1966), Philippe FLORENTIAU and Pierre PORTOCARRERO, sought to transmit, in margin federations and conflicts of interests which animate(d) them, teaching received their Masters: Jean BIANCHERI, Guy LORENZI, Andre NOCQUET, NAKAZONO Mutsuro, NORO Misamachi, EJESHI Tokujiro, YOSHIMURA Kenji, TSUDA Itsuo,… Join by Georges CHARLES, they found in October 1976 the FFRZ (French Federation of Ritsu Zen) of which one of the objectives is the multi-field study of Japanese and Chinese martial arts. The FFRZ organizes several training courses until beginning of the year 80. Following the programmed destruction of the dojo of the “Chalet ALFA” in June 1987, and thanks to the mediation of the Service of the Sports of the town of Montreuil-sous-Bois, the courses were transferred, as from September 1987, in the Salle Bleue of the Bel-Air, room of user-friendliness of the district. These new buildings not making it possible to take again the totality of the disciplines applied to the AMT, only the courses of aikido, ken jitsu and iaido continued to be exempted. Association AMT is then dissolved and a new association is created in July 1987 under the name of ARZ (Academy of Ritsu Zen). The ritsu Zen - active Zen upright/- is the study of Zen in the movement, in the action. It is during za Zen - sitted/motionless Zen - which is a personal research through the meditation. Since 1973, several pupils passed to them kirigami and some became teachers. They installed their dojo in France and Spain: Montreuil-sous-Bois (F-93), Lamotte-Beuvron (F-41/since1989), Provenchères-sur-Fave (F-88/since 1990), Girona (Esp./since 1989), Alméria (Sp./from 1995 till 2004), Olot (Sp./since 2012) and Quimbaya (Col./since 2013).
