Kenryu

AUTHOR:  Kenryu Hayek

Kenryu is not just the author of this gripping tale but a living legend in the martial arts world, with over five decades of training, teaching, and innovation. A master of Jujutsu, Karate, and Ninjutsu, he holds black belt ranks at the esteemed levels of Shihan and has been honored with the rare title of Iemoto—or Soke by the Tokyo Musashi Ninja Clan, recognizing his mastery of Musashi Shibata-ryu Kojutsu, a traditional art steeped in history and precision. His journey has taken him deep into the roots of koryu Japanese martial traditions, where he systematized Jujiken-jutsu, the “Cross Fist Method,” a dynamic synthesis of ancient disciplines 

Beyond his personal mastery, Kenryu has shared his knowledge with hundreds of students across generations, from wide-eyed beginners to advanced black belts attending his sought-after seminars. His passion for empowerment shines through in the numerous women’s self-defense courses he’s led, equipping countless individuals with the skills to protect themselves. A teacher, innovator, and storyteller brings the same discipline and imagination to his writing, crafting worlds where every move counts and every character fights for their place.

When not penning novels or refining techniques, Kenryu can be found passing down his legacy to the next generation, or perhaps reminiscing over a lifetime of battles won, both on the mat and on the page. This novel is a testament to a life lived boldly, where the spirit of the warrior meets the heart of the creator.
