Kotō-ryū (虎倒流) is a school of Japanese martial arts that specialises in koppōjutsu (骨法術). Kotō-ryū was founded by Sakagami Tarō Kunishige (坂上太郎国重) in the Muromachi period (1392–1573), originating from Gyokko-ryū.[1] The sōke title was claimed to be passed down Masaaki Hatsumi (1931-) from Toshitsugu Takamatsu (1889-1972).
