Born on April 1, 1903 in Hoshii-cho, Toyama City, Sekino Shōzan (Sekino Keiji) began his studies of Tozan-ryū shakuhachi under Tajima Shōzan in October 1918, and by October of the next year he had completed the Chūden repertoire, receiving the bamboo name Shōtō. In March of 1920, after completing the Okuden course, he graduated from Toyama Prefectural Commercial School and immediately joined Kobe City Asahi Marine & Fire Insurance Co., Ltd., but due to illness, he was forced to resign in February of the following year to recuperate. Upon his recovery in December of the same year, he joined Tokyo Soy Sauce Co., Ltd., where he spent the rest of his working life. In Tokyo, he transferred to Tozan Master Katayama Yūzan in August 1922, changed his name to Yūshū, and continued his training. In July 1924, he was given his license to become an instructor, and in September 1925, he took his Jun-shihan (associate instructor) exam and passed. He then changed his professional name to Shōzan and began teaching in his spare time from his main job. He continued to work hard to promote and expand the Tozan-ryū, and became the head of the Yūshū-kai and a prominent figure in the Tokyo branch of the Tozan-ryū. In February 1931, he was promoted to Shihan, and his reputation grew. It is said he was a large man with a big, expansive shakuhachi voice who could easily dominate a stage. His hobbies included judo, sumo, reading, and sake.
