Bushin Ryu Bujutsu-kai Bushin Ryu teaches practical self defence and martial science as derived from old Okinawan kata. Soft Chi Gung and HARD self defence. Thank you Simon

Sensei Simon Tarrant
Instructor Certificate &
4th Dan Bushin Ryu We are a self defence school not a sports based school. We have a traditional base with a focus on the Martial Sciences - Bujutsu. Old Okinawan Karate is often referred to as the original MMA. The Bushin Ryu Bujustu-kai syllabus contains;
- empty hand techniques
- punching
- kicking
- grappling (standing up and on the floor)
- weapons (bo, knife, sticks)
- kata and chi gung-energy training. Bushin Ryu School of Bujutsu is a school for the study of martial arts, and understanding of TCM(Traditional Chinese Medicine) as related to the martial arts/martial science. Also we teach an understanding of anatomy and physiology as related to the martial arts, movements and thought patterns. I have over 40 years of study and practice in various martial arts, and still continue to learn and train, to try and understand what made the Old Masters what they were. With a modern understanding of energy systems, blood and nervous systems, muscular and fascia systems, we begin to understand the depth of knowledge these old masters had, and hopefully, with practice, we replicate some of their magic. We are a small school of dedicated martial artists, trying to be better martial artists and human beings.

Don't beat yourself up for NOT training, just get out do something, then more.
I had surgery again a few years ago and yup I have struggled - BUT I KNOW FOR ME THIS KARATE STUFF IS ALL MY LIFE TILL I CANT MOVE - and not being better straight away just gives goals and motivation for the future. 😁😎😁
Little goals give you little dopamine spikes.
Morning walk/exercise with sun in eyes resets metabolism and helps just about everything.
Time to start moving again.

We talk about this in class often…so a little reminder to students.
Fear dominates fights - if you can’t control/use your fear, it will control you.
Use your flinch, control fear by acting - you have a chance to use your martial arts skill.
Some of our early research came from Sijo Ian Waite and this guy - Tony Blauer…10-15yrs ago, and a version got added into our Bushin Ryu base.
Know Fear.
❤️❤️ Simon

We had a very special day yesterday - our first Bushin Ryu Bujutsu-kai dan grade.
Allister Gillam - Boo successfully passed his Bushin Ryu Dan grade test, a just under 6hr ordeal ending in no rules MMA sparring for more than 15 rounds…after a long day.
Awesome.
And all congratulations to Allister who has shown incredible stickability and determination - I am mean and at Bushin Ryu we aim to maintain a high standard of blackbelt…our Dan grade is still hard earned, and we manage to keep our standards.
It took over 10 years - but Boo has been here from the start and could have done this years ago but no hurry just plod along to make a martial artists with a depth of modern understanding in martial arts not many have.
I couldn’t be happier.
In a few days once he is over the bruises and exhaustion…I believe he will be very happy to be THE FIRST BUSHIN RYU BUJUTSU-KAI BLACKBELT.
Congratulations Boo well done.
