NINJUTSU:

 

Japanese Kobujutsu Jissen & Ninpo Bugei:

The Kamiyama Dojo was founded in 1985. The main martial traditions which make up the Kamiyama Dojo are, Gyokko ryu koshijutsu, Takagi Yoshin ryu Jutaijutsu, Kukishinden ryu Happo Bikenjutsu, Togakure ryu Ninpo Taijutsu, Koto ryu Koppojutsu and Shinden Fudo  ryu Jutaijutsu –Dakentaijutsu.

Rick Henderson shidoshi teaches the scientific knowledge of Japanese Bugei, taihenjutsu, which are the biometrics of living skills, escape, rolling, falling, footwork, leaping and the weak points of the body. This leads into the striking methodology of taihenjutsu where each student gets involved with self-protection skills to stop or weaken an attacker from harming them. With the use of skills learned in biometrics the student's level of knowledge is heightened and he progresses relatively fast. Students learn that every thing on the body is can be trained to stop an attacker.

Classes are fun and interesting as each student matures into a warrior. Of course the learning doesn't stop there. The grappling methods of Japanese Bugei are famous for the detail and effective structure of the Japanese warrior's battle field methods. The student learns more skills to protect themselves such as joint locks, chokes, throws, throwing escapes, ground fighting, and submissions.

Together with body skills the student also learns Japanese Bugei weaponry. Stick training is the major subject but also other weapons include the sword, throwing blades, weighted chain, sickle-knife with cord and weight, knife, spear and hand claws.

Rick Henderson shidoshi studies Japanese Bugei from Mr. Ralph J Severe, who is a directly licensed by the world famous Masaaki Hatsumi.
