RobinT830 Posted October 23, 2003 Posted October 23, 2003 My dojo has a separate weapons program in the Yamanni Ryu style. Right now we are concentrating on Bo and Sai. Although we have dabbled with nunchucku and kama. "If it is not hard, it is not worth doing."
Shorinryu Sensei Posted October 25, 2003 Posted October 25, 2003 I've never heard of the Yamanni Ryu style, but that's OK. What exactly is your question regarding weapons? Maybe I can help? My nightly prayer..."Please, just let me win that PowerBall Jackpot just once. I'll prove to you that it won't change me!"
RobinT830 Posted October 25, 2003 Author Posted October 25, 2003 Well, I did not really have a question, just looking to see if anyone else trained in the same style of weapons. http://www.oshirodojo.com/kobudo.html "If it is not hard, it is not worth doing."
searcher Posted October 25, 2003 Posted October 25, 2003 I do not train specifically in Yamanni-ryu, but I do several of the kata that are in the system. The Yamanni-ryu system is a very nice system if you want to really focus on the bo. "let those who shed blood with me be forever known as my brother."
RobinT830 Posted October 26, 2003 Author Posted October 26, 2003 That is great that some others know a bit about the system. Our Sensei is Nishime Sensei out of Ohio. He is coming to our dojo in about three weeks for more teaching and possible rank testing for a few. I really enjoy the weapons part of my training. I do 7 bo kata and 4 sai kata from the system. Sakagowa is the latest kata I am working on. "If it is not hard, it is not worth doing."
