All entries are based on information obtained from historical documents, newspaper articles, personal interviews, Danzan Ryu newsletters and website postings from many of the Danzan Ryu organizations. A very special thanks goes out to Professor Mike Chubb for his assistance and with providing me with historical Danzan Ryu information he has researched and collected over the years. Some of the Danzan Ryu Professors who provided historical information and helped with this project include: American Jujitsu Institute Professors Sam C. Luke, Ken Eddy and Danny Saragosa. American Judo & Jujitsu Federation Professors Jane Carr, John Congistre, Dennis Estes, Tom Hill, Robert Hodgkin, Tom Jenkins, Geoff Lane and Larry Nolte.

  • The Professors of Danzan Ryu Jujitsu
    The Professors of Danzan Ryu Jujitsu Written by Robert McKean Monday, 28 June 2010 00:00 Many of the classical Japanese martial arts use titles such as Renshi (trainer or assistant instructor), Kyoshi (doctrinal teacher or instructor), Hanshi (model teacher or master) and Shihan (master) for the higher ranking members of their particular ryu. So why is the title of Professor used in Danzan Ryu and where did it come from? Master Henry Seishiro Okazaki was known by his students and the local Hawaiian community as “The Professor.” The title of Professor is said to have originated with some of Professor Okazaki’s early American (Caucasian) students. They began calling him Professor him out of respect for his knowledge, ability and willingness to teach his ryu to many different people. Professor is a western title and honor that, to them, came close to the martial art title of Shihan or Master. This titled, borrowed from the Western academic tradition, had long been applied to high-ranking Japanese martial artists. For example, there was “Professor” John J. O’Brien, who received his diploma in Jui Jitsu in 1905 from the Governor of Nagasaki and who introduced President Teddy Roosevelt to Jiu Jitsu. There was also “Professor” Kishoku Inouye, the man who taught H. Irving Hancock, author of the 1905 book, The Complete Kano Jiu-Jitsu (Judo). Being credited as one of the first Japanese martial arts instructors to break away from many of the old Japanese traditions by teaching non-Asian students, Professor Okazaki willingly embraced the Western title of Professor.

  • Volume 8 Issue 1 1St Quarter 2008
    Volume 8 Issue 1 1st Quarter 2008 Professor Imi Okazaki-Mullins It is with deep sadness that we say goodbye to Professor Louise “Imi” Okazaki-Mullins, a woman who has kept the integrity of her father’s ju jitsu system intact, and who, through the strength of her character, led the rest of us to examine ourselves and our commitment to Danzan Ryu in a direct and honest manner. She held herself to the highest of standards, and expected those who study her father’s system to do the same. Those who were blessed to know her saw the embodiment of a true lady - Imi was a class act, poised and always in perfect control. From ju jitsu to taiko drumming, she approached all that she did with sincereity and commitment. We are all better off for having had her in our lives. -Sensei Hans Ingebretsen Photo courtesy of usadojo.com A very young Professor Mullins in front of her father, Professor Henry Bing Fai Lau and Imi Okazaki-Mullins Seishiro Okazaki 1 s we enter our second decade, Kilohana is growing and conAtinually changing, yet still we remain true to our roots and our core values. Formed originally by those of us who were drawn to Professor Sig Kufferath, we found a sense of community in our training together and a sense of excitement in the new venture we were undertaking by forming KIlohana. Vital to our endeavor is the sense that we are continually challenging ourselves to ex - plore deeper realms of our commitment to our art. This is essen - tially the basis for what a martial life is - an honest and revealing look at ourselves and how we relate to others.

  • Connecticut Sotai Revisited by Bob Quinn
    Connecticut Sotai Revisited by Bob Quinn In NAJOM Volume 12 Number 33 (March 2005) I told the story of visiting Sotai teacher Peter Guy Thompson in his Connecticut clinic in the fall of 2004 and my subsequent study with him in Boston a few months later. Since that time I have returned to his clinic a number of times, on each occasion bringing with me family members for him to work on as I watched. I recently returned again to Hampton, CT where Peter practices from a clinic in the basement of his home. This time I went alone with three missions: I wanted to treat both Peter and his wife Akiko, I wanted to get a treatment myself, and I wanted to express to Peter my gratitude for teaching me his way of practicing Sotai. In the over five years since I studied with him in Boston I have had the chance to put into practice what he showed me, and on my own behalf and that of my patients I wanted to thank him. I believe that my practice follows Peter’s treatment flow more than that of anyone else I have studied with, though I do also incorporate elements of Meridian Therapy, Jeffrey Dann’s Koshi Balancing, and Dr. Manaka’s Yin-Yang Channel Balancing style as well. I had him schedule me at the end of the day so that I could give both him and Akiko treatments. After that I was invited to stay for a dinner of the most delicious Japanese food, and the three of us had great conversations for hours in Peter’s tiki bar room.
