This program consists of 4 structured levels each in 3 cycles. There are 12 cycles in total that constitute the Mumon Ryu study system.

Each student is unique and has a different pace of work and progress. Our method is characterized by the self-discipline of study, supported by the accompaniment and feedback of the learning process of each student. It is estimated that a dedicated student can complete his studies in a time of 3 years.

Each level can be certified if the student wishes. We do not certify cycles, only levels satisfactorily exceeded.
