JLee Posted July 28, 2004 Posted July 28, 2004 My new neighbor is from japan and has been living here for about 6 years, he has a dojo that teaches judo,kendo and this style called Bo/Jo. Im just wondering what exactly is Bo/Jo cause ive never heard of it. sorry if this was a stupid question but i was curious
G95champ Posted July 28, 2004 Posted July 28, 2004 Well a Bo is a long Staff and a Jo is a short staff. My guess is its an art that teaching how to use the staff. (General George S. Patton Jr.) "It's the unconquerable soul of man, and not the nature of the weapon he uses, that ensures victory."
aefibird Posted July 29, 2004 Posted July 29, 2004 There are also MA's that train specifically in the use of each. Jodo (not to be confused with Judo!), for the short staff and Bodo (again, not to be confused with Budo!) for the longer staff. "Was it really worth it? Only time and death may ever tell..."
