Naginatajutsu (なぎなた術, 長刀術 or 薙刀術) is the art of fighting with a Japanese naginata, a weapon resembling the medieval European glaive. Most naginata practise today is in a modernised form, a gendai budo called naginata-do or Atarashii naginata, in which competitions also are held.
Many koryu ryuha (for example the famous Katori Shinto Ryu) include naginatajutsu in their curriculum.
