Isshinryu Nunchaku

[tommarker]

As I understand it, Shimabuku learned Nunchaku from Shinken Taira or Ryusho Sakagami, but was asked not to teach it due to its hoodlum reputation. A few Isshin-ryu schools today still perform this form, using different names for it. I've heard it named simply "sakagami" but on isshinryu sites, they refer to a form called "kiken no ki" and some say the form I'm doing is a variant of "maezato no nunchaku"

 

Does anyone know what I'm talking about, and perhaps know the form? I was shown it a long time ago, and I have an unclear section in my notes.

 

This book is the same form, but calls it "nunchaku kata".. rather unhelpful.
