Goshin Jutsu Goshin Jutsu: Meaning The term Goshin Jutsu is used to describe modern martial arts (Gendai) which are based on Traditional Japanese (Nihon) Ju Jutsu but the purpose of which is self defence (Goshin) for the modern day. We could perhaps refer to such arts of Gendai Goshin Jutsu (Modern self defence art). There are many different forms of Gendai Goshin Jutsu some of these have been established in the West combining the techniques of Karate, Judo and Aikido and perhaps some wrestling methods indigenous to the areas in which they have developed. There are also those forms of Ju Jutsu that have evolved from purely Japanse martial arts an which are known as Nihon Gendai Goshin Jutsu (Modern self defence arts with a strong Japanese origin.or influence) or more simply as Nihon Goshin Jutsu (Japanese style self defence art). Clearly then there are many different styles of Ju Jutsu in the modern age.
Characteristic of our Goshin Ju Jutsu: The Goshin Ju Jutsu that one learns about when they first come to our Dojo is based on the principles of Tai Sabaki (Body Movement) and Tai No Shintai (Locomotion or foot movement) Two of the first principles to be learnt are: Tenkan Moving out of the way of an armed or unarmed attack. Irimi Entering from a position outside of the opponents armed or unarmed attack. Tenkan (Evasion) enables a beginner to understand the principle of Ju (Yielding) which can lead to the unbalancing (Kuzushi) of the opponent enabling for the application of strikes (Atemi) and Kansetsu Waza (Locking Techniques) and teaches the principle of Go No Sen. Ju is a term that is used to describe an art (Jutsu) in which there is yielding, pliability and suppleness. The first principle of our Goshin Jutsu (Self Defence Art) is where the force of an opponents attack can be guided in such a way as to lead to that attack becoming the undoing of its initiator. Irimi, Tenkan and Tai No Shintai (Entering, evading and exercises for locomotion) enables the beginner to gain some insight into the principle of: Sen No Sen (Attacking before the opponent, we qualify this as: after sensing the intention of the opponents attack) Tai No Sen (Attacking at same time as opponent: a charcteristic of our Kempo and Te), Go No Sen (Where one has already yielded to an attack: a Charastic of our Ju Jutsu and Mutou) Whilst at the same time learning the basic techniques of: 1. Kamae Posture 2. Tai No Shintai Body Locomotion including footwork 3. Tai Sabaki Full Body Movement: Including body evasion techniques 4. Kokyu Breathing methods: Internal and External 5. Atemi Waza Striking Methods: From our Kempo 6. Kansetsu Waza Locking and Trapping Methods: From our Kempo 7. Taiho Jutsu Restraint Methods: Locking, Trapping and Pinning 8. Nage Waza Throwing Methods: From our Goshin Jutsu 9. Kime Waza Projection Methods: As part of Mutou

		Hakuda Ryu Kempo Jutsu The photograph to the left shows an immobilisation using pressure points on the leg (Applied with the foot) and the wrist (Applied with the fingers) whilst a Yubi Dori (Finger lock) is applied to the hand of the fallen opponent.
		Roku Shaku Bo and Plum Blossom (Using Escrima Sticks) The photo to the left demonstrates the use of Rokushakubo (6ft Staff) against Escrima sticks, which in our Hakuda Ryu Kempo are called Plum Blossom sticks. Both of these photographs were taken from Kempo and Te practise in the early to mid 1980's
		NAGE TE: Kubi Nage (Neck Throw) and Hanten Nage (Reversal Throw). This throw in the Nage Te (Throw hand) of Juken (Soft Fist Techniques) is known by variations such as Kubi Nage (Neck Throw) and Hanten Nage (Reversal Throw). These throws are variations of a technique called Kaiten Nage (Wheel Throw) in Aikido. In Nihon Go Shin Kage Ryu Kubi Nage and Hanten Nage are regarded as variations of Kaiten Nage.
		Kansetsu Waza: Kempo ground pin technique This photograph was taken in the early 1990's at a sports centre in Essex and demonstrates the use of a typical Kempo pin in which the opponents fallen body is restrained by use of a lock, pin and pressure point.
		Hakuda Ryu Kempo Jutsu Chinese Influence: Hakuda and Atemi Jutsu: The Atemi Jutsu (Striking techniques) of many of Nihon Goshin Jutsu systems often have their origin in Chinese Martial Arts and Medicine. One of the most well known and earlier influences of Chinese martial arts techniques on Japanese Ju Jutsu is often attributed to Chin Gem Pin (1587-1671), a Chinese Pottery Master who moved to Japan in 1619 and taught 3 Ronin (Masterless Samurai) his art known as Hakuda. Hakuda according to Donn Draegger is simply the term used by Japanese martial artists to describe those martial arts that were influenced by Chinese martial arts systems, he also tells us that no complete system of Chinese martial art was ever transmitted to Japan. As such we can state that Hakuda is the name for hybrid Chinese influences on Japanese martial arts. Chinese martial arts were systems based on striking, also known as Chinese Boxing, which when combined with native Okinawan Te lead to establishment of Toudi and eventually Karate. Influences on and of Ju Jutsu Just as Chinese boxing methods influenced Okinawan Karate and Japanese Ju Jutsu schools, Japanese Karate, the natural evolution of Okinawan Karate in Japan, was influenced by Japanese Ju Jutsu styles and in some cases Japanese Ju Jutsu was influenced by Okinawan Karate. Hakuda Ryu Kempo Jutsu is common to Nihon Go Shin Kage Ryu, Nihon Goshin Kage Ryu and Nihon Goshin Ryu Ju Jutsu Kai is a striking system, known as Atemi Jutsu (Literally Striking Art). The Atemi Jutsu of our art is known as Hakuda Ryu Kempo. Kempo Jutsu contains the techniques known to Karateka as Kyusho Jutsu (The striking of vulnerable points in an opponents anatomy). Hakuda Ryu Kempo Jutsu involves external and internal conditioning, with and without equipment, solo and paired combative and therapeutic exercises, weapons work and some basic grappling techniques, To learn more about Hakuda Ryu Kempo Jutsu see http://maxpages.com/hakudaryu/Hakuda_Ryu_Kempo_Jutsu and the other Hakuda Ryu Pages that follow and the History of Kempo pages.
