  • Kyudo - the Way of the Bow
    Kyudo - the Way of the Bow Centuries ago in Japan, archery was regarded as the highest discipline of the Samurai warrior. Then, as the bow lost its significance as a weapon of war, and under the influence of Buddhism, Shinto, Daoism and Confucianism, Japanese archery evolved into Kyudo, the "Way of the Bow", a powerful and highly refined contemplative practice. Kyudo, as taught by Kanjuro Shibata XX, is not a competitive sport and marksmanship is regarded as relatively unimportant. According to Shibata Sensei, a master of the Heki Ryu Bishu Chikurin-ha school of Kyudo, the ultimate goal of Kyudo is to polish the mind - the same as in sitting meditation. "One is not polishing one's shooting style or technique, but the mind. The dignity of shooting is the important point. This is how Kyudo differs from the common approach to Kanjuro Shibata Sensei at Kai. (ca. 1990) archery. In Kyudo there is no hope. Hope is not the point. The point is that through long which the practitioner has the opportunity to and genuine practice your natural dignity as see the mind more clearly. The target a human being comes out. This natural becomes a mirror which reflects the qualities dignity is already in you, but it is covered up of heart and mind at the moment of the by a lot of obstacles. When they are cleared arrow's release. away, your natural dignity is allowed to This distinguishes Kyudo from archery shine forth" - Shibata Sensei. where simply hitting the target is the goal. Chogyam Trungpa the renowned Tibetan Kyudo is "Standing meditation", and as meditation master said, "Through Kyudo one such, is a true contemplative art.

Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources. Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. (November 2011) Martial arts are extensive systems of codified practices and traditions of combat, practiced for a variety of reasons, including self-defense, competition, physical health and fitness, as well as mental and spiritual development. The term martial art has become heavily associated with the fighting arts of eastern Asia, but was originally used in regard to the combat systems of Europe as early as the 1550s. An English fencing manual of 1639 used the term in reference specifically to the "Science and Art" of swordplay. The term is ultimately derived from Latin, martial arts being the "Arts of Mars," the Roman god of war.[1] Some martial arts are considered 'traditional' and tied to an ethnic, cultural or religious background, while others are modern systems developed either by a founder or an association.

  • THE HISTORY of TAEKWONDO by Glen R
    THE HISTORY OF TAEKWONDO By Glen R. Morris A Report for Recommendation Black Belt Testing 1994 Before I get into the history of Taekwondo, I would like to define what it means. I read the definition from many books and the one that I like best comes from the book Comprehensive Asian Fighting Arts (1) written by Donn F. Draeger and Robert W. Smith. "Taekwondo is an empty-hand combat form that entails the use of the whole body. Tae means "to Kick" or "Smash with the feet," Kwon implies "punching" or "destroying with the hand or fist," and Do means "way" or "method." Taekwondo thus, is the technique of unarmed combat for self defense that involves the skillful application of techniques that include punching, jumping kicks, blocks, dodges, parrying actions with hands and feet. It is more than a mere physical fighting skill, representing as it does a way of thinking and a pattern of life requiring strict discipline. It is a system of training both the mind and the body in which great emphasis is placed on the development of the trainee's moral character." Taekwondo is a martial art that in "todays" form of self defense has evolved by combining many different styles of martial arts that existed in Korea over the last 2,000 years and some martial arts styles from countries that surround Korea. Taekwondo incorporates the abrupt linear movements of Karate and the flowing, circular patterns of Kung-fu with native kicking techniques. Over fifty typically Chinese circular hand movements can be identified in modern Taekwondo.(1) A few of the earlier martial arts styles that contributed to Taekwondo are: T'ang-su, Taek Kyon, also known as Subak, Tae Kwon, Kwonpup and Tae Kwonpup.

Curby1 ABSTRACT. Published research after the 2004 Olympic Games indicated that in the combat sports of boxing, taekwondo, Greco-Roman wrestling, and freestyle wrestling, the combatants in red won more often than those in blue in each sport. This prompted several subsequent studies, including team sports, the role of judges and officials, and other factors that could contribute to a unfair bias against what is thought to be a random and benign assignment of uniform color. To further examine a possible competitive bias in wrestling because of uniform color, this study examined the results from the 2015 Senior World Wrestling Championships.

  • Biomechanical Head Impact Characteristics During Sparring Practice Sessions in High School Taekwondo Athletes
    CLINICAL ARTICLE J Neurosurg Pediatr 19:662–667, 2017 Biomechanical head impact characteristics during sparring practice sessions in high school taekwondo athletes David M. O’Sullivan, PhD,1 and Gabriel P. Fife, PhD2 1Department of Sports Science, Pusan National University, Busan, Republic of Korea; and 2Department of Health and Human Performance, Texas State University, San Marcos, Texas OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to monitor head impact magnitude and characteristics, such as impact loca- tion and frequency, at high school taekwondo sparring sessions. METHODS Eight male high school taekwondo athletes participated in this study. The head impact characteristics were recorded by X-Patch, a wireless accelerometer and gyroscope, during 6 taekwondo sparring sessions. The outcome measures were the peak linear acceleration (g = 9.81 msec2), peak rotational acceleration, rotational velocity, and Head Injury Criterion. RESULTS A total of 689 impacts occurred over 6 sessions involving the 8 athletes. There was an average of 24 impacts per 100 minutes, and there were significant differences in the frequency of impacts among both the sessions and individual athletes. In order of frequency, the most commonly hit locations were the side (38.2%), back (35.7%), and front (23.8%) of the head. CONCLUSIONS The data indicate that there is a relatively high number of head impacts experienced by taekwondo athletes during sparring practice. According to the rotational acceleration predicting impact severity published in previous research, 17.1% of the impacts were deemed to be a moderate and 15.5% were deemed to be severe. https://thejns.org/doi/abs/10.3171/2017.1.PEDS16432 KEY WORDS biomechanics; injury and prevention; acceleration; trauma AEKWONDO has been an official Olympic combat 7.1–11.7) compared with 2.3 (95% CI 2.2–2.4) per 1000 sport since 2000 and is well known for its full con- athlete exposures, respectively.
