Kazami-Ryu Level 4 is offered on an invite only basis to students who have graduated Level 3, where  students will use the material they’ve learned in Kazami-Ryu 1 ~ 3 to perform advanced transitional suspensions safely, comfortably and with finesse. This class is designed for students to be able to expand their knowledge exponentially, and no longer simply create “forms” but instead start creating “concepts”. Graduation from Kazami-Ryu Level 3 does not automatically guarantee a place in Level 4 classes.
*Classes in 2026 are held fortnightly on a Wednesday evening*
