Joecooke007 Posted January 27, 2002 Posted January 27, 2002 I'm currently studying Goju Ryu karate do but my sensei is also very much qualified to teach ju jutsu. It's Hakkoryu ju jutsu if you know anything about it tell me. I'm trying to decide whether or not I should take it. _________________ Joe Cooke Goju Ryu Practitioner [ This Message was edited by: Joecooke007 on 2002-01-27 05:50 ] Boards don't hit back. -Bruce Lee
Prodigy-Child Posted January 27, 2002 Posted January 27, 2002 what have ya got to loose, try it! You can boo me if you want, You know I'm right!-Chris Rock
Bon Posted January 28, 2002 Posted January 28, 2002 Yes, I'd definetely be in on that one. Right now, I'm quitting kickboxing and taking up some form of grappling to get my grappling skills up to my striking skills. It takes sacrifice to be the best.There are always two choices, two paths to take. One is easy. And its only reward is that it's easy.
YODA Posted January 29, 2002 Posted January 29, 2002 Hi Joe Hakkoryu is a fairly modern style by Japanese standards - dating back to the 1940's. It is, however, very "Classical" in it's approach - so expect a lot of, pre-arranged partner work, two-man Kata etc and no sparring. If this is what you want then go for it - enjoy!

Ryukyu1 Posted February 22, 2002 Posted February 22, 2002 GO for it..what have you got to lose and how much you can gain......AND Bon why not keep up the Kickboxing and also grappling..it would be a shame to let all your training go.
Piastre Posted February 23, 2002 Posted February 23, 2002 My Sensei did ju jutsu prior to taking up karate (I couldn't tell you what style of ju jutsu it was). He's always incorporated techniques into our training, and I think they fit in beautifully...they greatly compliment each other and I would definitely recommend giving it a try
