experience! There will be classes and nightly concerts as well as

Shakuhachi in "Music Therapy" as a healing tool, we will also have an
additional focus this year on ji-nashi Shakuhachi construction since it
was such a big hit last year! Our instructor, Jon Shingetsu Kypros,
creates his livelihood by making ji-nashi Shakuhachi. Please check the
Shakuhachi Camp information tab on this website [www.nyogetsu.com] for more camp
info. Instructors will be Kurahashi Yoshio Sensei, the Traditional

Nyohaku Soergel, and Jorge Alfano. Please call: 917-207-6724 or email: nyogetsu@gmail.com for further
