  • International Ryukyu Kobudo Federation
    International Ryukyu Kobudo Federation N A T I O E R N T A N L I RYUKYU F E KOBUDO N D O E R A T I Ryukyu Kobudo is the practice of martial arts weapons that developed in the Ryukyu Islands. The Ryukyu Islands are a chain of islands extending southwest from the southern end of Kyushu Island in Japan. Notable islands include Okinawa and Hama Higa Islands. The kata names originate from the Kyushu island or village where they s nd developed, or from the master that is sla u I ky credited with the kata. yu R Okinawa Short History Okinawa is the largest island in the Ryukyu Island chain. Both Japanese and Chinese settlers have been there since around 300 BC. By 1340 AD. three kingdoms exist in the Ryukyu Islands, Hokuzan, Chuzan, and Nazan. These three kingdoms are at war with each other for dominance of the island chain. It is at this time that trade begins with China. In 1393 AD. China sends a large group of people to Okinawa as part of the cultural exchange. Included in this group are monks from the Shaolin Temple. This begins the combination of Shaolin Kung Fu with Okinawan Te. In 1429 AD. The Ryukyu Islands are united under one king. The kingdom prospers due to the trade with all of Asia. In 1447 AD. King Sho Shin bans all weapons from civilians to keep the peace. This is the first “Weaponless Period”. In 1609 AD. the Satsuma clan invades the Ryukyu Islands and captures the King.

From research on the institutionalization of martial arts1 Submission: 8.07.2012, acceptance: 27.07.2012 Key words: martial arts, institution, evolution, teaching, titles Abstract The theoretical perspective is co-created by the Humanistic Martial Arts’ Theory (HMAT) and the sociology of martial arts, including the sociological categories of institutions and institutionalization [Cynarski 2004]. The object of research is the old-Japanese martial art jūjutsu in the process of adaptive changes, curriculum and organizational development. This work is only a sketch, preliminary to the in-depth monographic study. Scientific problem. Description and explanation of the process of adaptation of traditional Asian martial arts to changing conditions (socio-cultural context) and the institutionalization of martial arts in Europe – based on the example of jūjutsu. Selected examples of this institutionalization and adaptation are analysed. Methodology. Practical knowledge2, observations by the author, a long-term participant (since 1977) and accounts obtained from 11 jūjutsu highest rank masters, constitute a major source and method of (qualitative) research. Additionally, the author takes into account the literature (content analysis) and analysis of documents from several organizations, in which he has been involved for approximately 30 years (Idokan, Tenshin Shōden Katori Shinto-ryū, Takeda-ryū, Idōkan Poland Association, IMAF / Kokusai Budō Renmei, DDBV and others). Results / observations. Adaptive changes to jūjutsu have constantly occurred. There have been changes in the system of education and certification.

  • Toby Threadgill, Menkyo Kaiden, Takamura Ha Shindo Yoshin Ryu by Marco Ruiz Published Online
    An Interview With: Toby Threadgill, Menkyo Kaiden, Takamura ha Shindo Yoshin ryu by Marco Ruiz Published Online A little background. I met Yukiyoshi Takamura in San Franciso’s Japan Town at a JACL event in the early 1990’s. When I realized he was the koryu instructor I’d heard rumors about in the South Bay Area, I asked him if he would do an interview for a budo newsletter I published. To my delight, he agreed. I visited Takamura sensei and his charming wife Mishiko, at their home one afternoon to conduct the interview. It was during this interview that I realized this man was a treasure of information and insight. Several years later I was contacted by Mr. Stan Pranin of Aikido Journal magazine concerning an expansion of my interview. The expanded version of this interview was published in Aikido Journal in 1999. Yukiyoshi Takamura passed away in 2000. The leadership of his organization passed to Toby Threadgill in 2004 following the retirement of the other remaining senior exponents. In May of 2008 during a trip to Colorado I visited Toby Threadgill. His dojo nestled in the mountains of Evergreen, Colorado is breathtaking. It reflects that Shinto influenced characteristic of achieving beauty through simplicity. It even smells the part of a Shinto shrine, imbuing the air with the fragrant scent of hinoki. I sat down with Threadgill sensei over tea in his dojo after a short training session to discuss the tradition he leads and the future of classical martial arts outside Japan. I hope you find his observations and insights as fascinating as I did.

  • A Brief History of Matayoshi Kobudo, and Kodokan
    A Brief History of Matayoshi Kobudo, and Kodokan The Okinawan kobudo are, essentially, an eclectic mix of armed civil fighting techniques that compliment the Okinawan karate systems. They cover a large selection of weapons, and are somewhat notable in that they neglect the knife, sword, and spear, which are primary weapons in the rest of Asia. They are also unusual in that they are often taught separately from unarmed styles. Most systems in China, Japan, and the rest of Asia teach weapon and unarmed techniques as part of a continuum of technical knowledge using the same principals of combat. While there is little historical evidence to work with to date the origins of Okinawan weapon arts, there are references to staff techniques and weapon dances going back as far as the 1500’s. Many sources credit the weapon bans of king Sho Shin O (1507) with the impetus for the development of the current kobudo arsenal. It is said that due to this ban on the owning of swords and spears, the Okinawans developed local tools to use as weapons. Later, from 1609 onward, it is said these skills were further developed and used to combat the Satsuma invaders. But while the current weapons used do resemble local agricultural implements, it is unlikely they originated from farm tools, or from peasants. The martial artists the weapon forms can be traced back to were not farmers, they were primarily of the shizoku or pechin, (lower or middle nobility) class, international merchants, and government personnel. The weapon techniques were, more likely, developed from mixed Japanese, South East Asian, and (primarily) Chinese and local sources, with techniques being adapted to local conditions and implements.

Johnstone, Doshi, Shindokan Budo Dojo, Kagami Editor Welcome! Hello and welcome to the Winter 2015-2016 issue of Kagami! We hope that this issue finds you all here in the first quarter of the New Year! Despite its release that now finds us well into 2016, this issue of Kagami serves to close out 2015. Last year was certainly a wonderful year for the Kokusai Nippon Budo Kai, and many of us had the great fortune to witness first-hand a number of standout occasions. Among the most notable of these highlights was the bestowal of the Hanshi title by the Dai Nippon Butoku Kai on our teacher, Carl E. Long, Hanshi, the 22nd Generation Soshihan of Muso Jikiden Eishin-ryu Iai-Heiho, in March of 2015 at the conclusion of the 5th DNBK America Butokusai and Gasshuku in Virginia Beach. It bears reiterating that this honour “secures the KNBK’s position of standing and respect within the DNBK community, both within Japan and throughout the rest of the world, as well as within the larger world-wide budo community. It also serves as a significant reflection of every KNBK member in terms of how we conduct ourselves and our perseverance in our study of budo.” The past year also saw Long Hanshi once again travelling widely to teach at our far-flung KNBK dojo as well as initiating what we hope will become and ongoing Hombu Dojo seminar series.
