Hanshi Shihan Scott Evans, founder of Koyama Dojo, has spent nearly three decades pursuing mastery and leadership in Hakko Denshin Ryu Jujutsu (HDRJJ), under the guidance of Soke Michael LaMonica. His martial journey began in 1995 with a self-defense class at the University of Akron, sparking a lifelong commitment to HDRJJ. After relocating to Michigan from Akron, OH, Scott founded Koyama Dojo in 2004, where he continued both his training and teaching of HDRJJ. In 2017, he achieved the rank of San Dai Kichu, one of the highest levels in the HDRJJ system. Recognized for his expertise and leadership, he was appointed HDRJJ Technical Director of North America in 2022 and was later promoted to the rank of Hanshi in May 2023. In this role, he was honored to see Koyama Dojo named Honbu Dojo for North America, marking it a central training hub for HDRJJ. Scott has also trained in Iaido under Nicklaus Suino Sensei, achieving the rank of Nikyu, and in Pekiti Tirsia Kali under Mataas na Guro Justin Schaffner, further broadening his martial arts experience. Outside the dojo, Scott is a proud husband and father to three children and a successful business development executive in the biotech industry.
