G Money Slick Posted July 28, 2004 Posted July 28, 2004 Could any knowledgable martial artists enlighten me on Daito-Ryu Aiki Jujitsu?? If your enemy refuses to be humbled......you must destroy him.
Chibi Posted July 29, 2004 Posted July 29, 2004 What would you like to know? The history is very long. Ueshiba Morihei (Aikido) studied Daito-ryu. Okuyama Ryuho (founder of Hakko-ryu) studied Daito-ryu under Matsuda Hosaku, who was a direct disciple of Takeda Sokaku, and under Sokaku himself. I will give more when I have more time, gotta run.
Chibi Posted July 29, 2004 Posted July 29, 2004 The Takeda family is believed to have been taught in secrecy by the descendants of The Seiwa Emperor, who developed the art after learning basics from the Emperors' family. I can't remember exactly, but I think it all started in the mid-late 800's. By the time it got to the Takeda family it was a full system of blocks, strikes, holds and joint locks etc. We're talking something like 800-900 years for it to reach the Takeda family.
knightt Posted September 13, 2004 Posted September 13, 2004 I have trained in a stye of Daito Ryu Aki Jujutsu... More accurately Bujutsu. I no longer train with them but do know of the style. I trained in a dojo whom was under the control of the Dai Nippon Daito Ryu Aiki Bujutsu Rengokai in Japan. The style i trained in was very different from a western martal art. Instead of becoming stronger, hitting harder, yelling louder, we would try to be more compassionate, more gentle, more understanding, blend more. In this way my style felt was the best way to win a battle. There is no competition. There is no distinction between skill level, and technique is encouraged to be completly silent, while taking the least amount of space. I may add that although i trained in this style, i don't know if all Daito Ryu Aki Jujutsu dojos still train in the same manor. There is a web site with lots of information if you would like to know more. http://www.niagara.com/~zain/ If you have any further questions, i would be happy to try and answer them. Brendan
47MartialMan Posted September 19, 2004 Posted September 19, 2004 Dont forget Jigorno Kano (founder of Judo) and the founder of Hapkido, Yong Choi ( I think was his name). I wonder if it is the "oldest" of them all?
rb Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 I don't think Kano studied daito. He did study Kito and Tenshin ryu jujutsu before creating judo. Also I think choi is the man that taught the founder of hapkido?
