The Curse of Modernity has stolen sacred and ancient truths. You know this curse in the emptiness you feel, the pain you endured, the dissatisfaction that plagues you. You want to break free, to be valiant: a 勇姿 (Yushi).

You’ll find what you seek beyond the things of man: in the Wilds. Epic adventures, untold power, and clarity of mind will find you on this path...along with challenges and tests. The strength you need is in you.

指導者 (Shidosha), Master Explorers who have traveled this path before you will guide you on 勇姿道 (Yushido), the Way of the Hero. Unlike games, there is no cheat. The only way over is through. But you'll never be alone.
Be the Hero of Your Own Story
Yushido is a program of adventure games set in amazing places throughout west central Florida and beyond. It's a club for people who love action and fantasy. You get fitter, healthier, more capable and confident. Don't just watch a character, BECOME the hero. In a year's time, you can be an Okami Yushi who has swung from vines, climbed mountains, and meditated under ancient waterfalls in Japan. To break the Curse of Modernity, you must develop 心と体の調和 (Kokoro to karada no chowa), harmony of mind, body, and spirit. Complete adventures to discover all the Curse has taken from you and unite it in true alignment. Earn Experience Points (XP) as you go. When you have enough XP, level up to new challenges and new discoveries.



























How it Works
How it Works
When you sign up, your Shidosha will contact you to schedule your first adventure. Adventures are available every week, but you can move at your own pace. Start at the first Tanuki adventure and work your way through the levels. Earn Experience Points (XP) by participating in all aspects of the adventure. All challenges are scaled to your ability. You never compete against others.
LEVEL BREAKDOWN
TANUKI - 450 XP | KAPPA 1050 XP
KODAMA - 2050 XP | OKAMI - 4050 XP
When you complete the program, you become an Okami Yushi. But this is only your origin story. Like all epics, the end is nothing more than the beginning of a greater adventure. Okami Yushi are invited to exclusive experiences in Japan and around the world. Stay as honored guests in ancient inns, meditate under forgotten waterfalls, scale imposing peaks, and more. Details available only to Yushi.
We are waiting for you Yushi! Let's go!
Path of the Yushi . . .

About Yushido
Yushido is one program created by Jonah Mick. He has over 20 years’ experience in science, educational programming, and trauma recovery. Modern society has given us unbelievable wonders. But it has also given rise to problems: isolation, mental illness, stress, developmental trauma, allergies, even weakening of bones and muscle are increasing to epic levels. These were unknown to most of human history. Adventures are based in observable scientific and experiential facts. We use mythical language because it’s instinctively rooted in our psychology. Few of us will study a textbook but we love excitement, heroic deeds, and epic romance. We can't break the Curse using the flawed thinking it creates! We have to step out of that world to reclaim our dormant powers. If you are reading this, you are already on this journey. In your deep core, you feel the draw of this quest. But you need a guide.
