	Zen Budokai Aiki Jujitsu was founded by Raymond "Duke" Moore who began his training in the 1940s with Ray Law. Moore received advanced black belts in karate, judo, and jujitsu and by the 1960s had formulated his system which was influenced by his direct training with Ray Law (jujitsu), George Yoshida (judo), Kiyose Nakae (jujitsu), Mitz Kimura (judo), Richard Kim (karate and jujitsu), Hidetaka Nishiyama (karate), and Masutatsu Oyama (karate). Today, the system consists of approximately a dozen schools most of which are in California and New England. Zen Budokai focuses on practical jujitsu and self-defense and is taught by 9th dan (and current system leader) Tim Delgman at the San Francisco dojo and 9th dan Jim Moses at Stanford University at the Stanford Jujitsu Club.

	Other past events include the two Kodenkan Okugi classes held in Santa Clara, CA. These two events, one in the summer of 1993 and one in the winter of 2003, brought a number of Danzan-Ryū instructors together to learn the system from Sig Kufferath and his senior student Tony Janovich. Kufferath had been a graduate of the same class held in 1948 under the direction of Okazaki. Over the many years, the methods of performing Okazaki's arts had diverged into a number of different styles. This class, whose contents were designed by Janovich under the direction of Kufferath, was designed to show interested instructors how the arts had been done by Okazaki according to Kufferath, and how he had modified several arts. Students were instructed in all of the combat arts as well as the eleven required methods of resuscitation. The students who graduated from these classes were awarded Kaiden no Sho, or complete transmission certificates, and were given the title of either [[Renshi]] (trainer), [[Japanese honorifics#Shōgō\|Kyoshi]] (teacher) or [[Shihan]] (master). Before Kufferath's death in 1999, he and Janovich had planned to hold a second class in 2003, ten years after the previous class. This had been the plan of Okazaki after his 1948 class, but his death in 1951 prevented this. Janovich carried out the plan and held this class in January and February 2003. This class has been held in 2013 and in 2023.		Other past events include the two Kodenkan Okugi classes held in Santa Clara, CA.

	In 1924, Okazaki returned to Japan and undertook a study of the various schools, or ''ryū-ha'', of the then most popular Jūjutsu styles of [[Yōshin-ryū]], Namba-Shoshin Ryū, Iwaga Ryū, Kosogabe Ryū, [[Kōdōkan\|Kōdōkan Jūdō]], and several others. Later that year when he returned to the Hawaiian Islands, he continued the study of jūjutsu under the various masters who had emigrated from Japan to Hawaii. Incorporating not only traditional jūjutsu, but also [[Lua (martial art)\|Lua]], [[Shōrin-ryū\|Shōrin-ryū Karate]], [[Eskrima]], [[Boxing]], [[Chin Na]] and [[Folk wrestling\|Folk Wrestling]], he began to synthesize the most effective aspects of these various styles into an eclectic system which he called ''Danzan Ryū''.

	Shortly after the Japanese [[attack on Pearl Harbor]], on December 7, 1941, Okazaki was allegedly [[Internment of Japanese-Americans\|interned]] for six months. This is alleged, but not substantiated through [[Freedom of Information Act (United States)\|FOIA]] requests to the U.S. Government. It is possible that he was only held under arrest and not placed in an internment camp. He was released relatively quickly because of the intervention of Curley Freedman who used his FBI contacts to aid in Okazaki's release. Curley was the first tile contractor in Honolulu, and installed tile in the homes and businesses of many Japanese. Because of his craftsmanship, he was well- liked and widely known. The FBI asked Okazaki for his assistance in identifying Japanese fishing boats that may have been contacting Japanese submarines and relaying information about [[United States Navy\|U.S. Navy]] activity in [[Pearl Harbor]]. The FBI would also ask Bud Estes, who worked for Curley in the tile business, to assist in identifying drug dealers on another island during the harvest period.

Kufferath had been a graduate of the same class held in 1948 under the direction of Okazaki. Over the many years, the methods of performing Okazaki's arts had diverged into a number of different styles. This class, whose contents were designed by Janovich under the direction of Kufferath, was designed to show interested instructors how the arts had been done by Okazaki according to Kufferath, and how he had modified several arts. Students were instructed in all of the combat arts as well as the eleven required methods of resuscitation. The students who graduated from these classes were awarded Kaiden no Sho, or complete transmission certificates, and were given the title of either [[Renshi]] (trainer), [[Japanese honorifics#Shōgō\|Kyoshi]] (teacher) or [[Shihan]] (master).
