So with that in mind I was thinking that we could start sharing any interesting moments from your previous days training.
So yesterday was my first day doing JuTaijutsu in a while, its essentially BJJ but we call it that because well we just do. *EDIT* I'm pretty sure we dont call it BJJ because we dont pass out belts or anything. Its just more training to be a complete fighter. Anyway I was rolling with one of our blackbelts, he's about 220 and 35 yo. He's one of the best submission guys in our dojo. He was so deliberate and calm no matter what, he was even talking to me and making sure I was working even if I thought I had no chance.
Anybody ever heard of a move called the cheese burger, we went over that in the technique part of class. Some arm bars from knee mounts and I think an olonplata (sp?) from a side mount.
The 90 minutes went by so fast but it was fun to get back on the ground and try to shore up my most glaring weakness.
So what about you, how'd your training or instruction go on 6-9-08? |
Ok so we have several books we have to read at each belt in Ninjutsu. I was bored and decided to listen to some Ra and check out Ninja Volume 2: Warrior Ways of Enlightenment.
In it I found:
"The unarmed combat techniques of ninjutsu are referred to as taijutsu (skill with the body). As subclassifications within the broad category of fighting without artificial weapons, there are three major groupings of techniques.
Dakentaijutsu striking methods employ
koppojutsu bone smashes with fist and bottom of the foot, and
koshijutsu organ and muscle stabs with the fingers and toes.
Jutaijutsu grappling methods employ
nage throws,
shime chokes, and
torite close-in reversals and locks.
Taihenjutsu, the body movement skills that make up the third major subclass, include
ukemi methods of breaking falls,
tobi leaps, and
taisabaki body angling, and
shinobi iri silent movement."
I thought it was interesting as we do honestly touch all of those every class. Anyway I'm done working for the week. I'll holler at y'all on Monday. Peace!
