Shimura Dōjō

The Shimura Dōjō (志村道場, Shimura Dōjō) is a samurai training facility located in Edo. It is run by the Shimura family, specifically Tae and Shinpachi Shimura, who had the dojo handed down to them from their father.

Overview
Before the Amanto invasion of Edo, the dojo was a prospering samurai school. After the Amanto took over and banned swords, however, most of the students dropped out of the school, causing it to fall into financial despair. After the original owner died, both Tae and Shinpachi took over the dojo, but neither were successful at bringing in students, forcing Shinpachi to get a job at a restaurant.
