Are you searching for a practical exercise that you can do at any stage of life, something motivational that will lift your spirits and energize you?

Train outdoors with me in Lakeway, TX in Okinawa Karate… I have a few spots open for new students that are available now.

Okinawa Karate is a 400+ year old Self-Defense system that is a holistic exercise, improving your overall health and attitude in life as you progress!

Face it, the gym can be boring and monotonous = no motivation to continue.

Okinawa Karate training is much more than drilling punches & kicks… It’s about discipline/mindset, breathing, resiliency and the attainment of goals.

I have benefitted from 48 years of instruction…. You can as well.

Okinawa Karate has a strong influence from the Chinese Martial arts, specifically, Ch’uan Fa, Fist Law. You can see it in its forms and applications.

It evolved on the island of Okinawa in 3 villages - Shuri, to the north, Naha to the south and Tomari, the middle village. 3 distinct styles were formed, Shuri-te, Naha-te and Tomari-te.

Shuri-te techniques focused more on the external
Naha-te techniques focused more on the internal
Tomari-te techniques combined hard & soft, external and internal aspects

The form that I’m demonstrating in the video is called Passai, Pe*****te the Fortress. It is practiced in many styles of Karate and is performed slightly differently depending upon Ryu, style. Many years ago, I had researched that it came to Okinawa from a Chinese martial artist from Taiwan. It is a Tomari-te, student-level form that combines internal & external techniques. Kata are prearranged movements, in this case a series of bouts, orchestrated into a complete form with an interesting story...

The ideal way to practice this form is in the dark or with a blindfold.

Its name, Pe*****te the Fortress, not only refers to the four spear hand strikes at the beginning of the form that can be practiced to penetrate/thrust at the opponent’s body, it’s also used metaphorically… this form reinforces a scenario where a warrior might have entered/penetrated a dark fortress to face multiple lurking opponents inside. Thus, you see slow careful movements and then quick retaliations to attacks, if you can interpret the form.

This interpretation is called, bunkai… and must be understood and manifested by the practitioner while training in the form to obtain the most benefit. Bunkai is an interesting study... the more one knows about the combat applications of the martial arts, the deeper one can interpret the forms.

Most Karate practitioners cannot bridge Kata (forms) into combat. Bridging it in and automatizing/conditioning the body is the primary purpose of Kata practice… there are other purposes as well, it is a chance for one to practice the development of their breathing and internal energy without the concern of imminent attack. Once you can practice forms like this, the physical and mental benefits are abundant.

I can train you and help you to understand how to apply what you are practicing, so you can bridge the lessons into your life as a contemporary.

If you’d like to discuss training, I’d love to hear from you… Contact me by phone, text or IM me here.

Do you think that you have what it takes?

I’m looking for 4 people with a warrior mindset who can endure an hour-long, rigorous martial arts class that’s limited to 4 that runs once weekly in the evening in Lakeway, TX.

The martial art is called, Toide. It was one of the secret arts of the Imperial Family of Okinawa, Motobu Family (sometimes referred to as Go-Ten-Te… Palace Hand Art) and was passed down 11 generations until the Family Tea Boy, Seikichi Uehara learned it and taught it to his students.

Toide is a VERY practical self-defense system that includes Blocking/Evading against weapons & weapons-free attacks, Striking, Throwing, Grappling, Arm Bars, Wristlocks, etc.

It doesn’t matter if you are experienced OR have no experience in the martial arts…

If you are in good physical shape and are motivated to improve and empower yourself, you might be a great candidate for this class!

Call, Text or IM me here before you miss the opportunity… Once the class is filled, this class is closed!

The cost is only $25 per class… You’ll be hard-pressed to find a better price for a semi-private lesson anywhere!

Ude Kaiten Nage, Arm Rotary Throw.

Aiki-Bujutsu includes weapons-free combat that derives its techniques from the motions of the Samurai Sword.

Tachi-Dori "sword takeway" techniques were used by the Samurai to take away weapons from blade-wielding opponents. You can see how this can easily be applied against bare fist and foot attacks.

Because the Sword was the primary weapon used by the Samurai, most of the techniques involved safely redirecting an opponent's sword during or prior to performing a throw, lock or choke etc. as a retaliation.

These are great skills to be studied in tandem with Swordwork. However, these techniques are typically taught as a separate discipline outside the umbrella of Iai-Jutsu & Ken-Jutsu.

You can see many of these techniques in my book, Aiki-Jujutsu: Mixed Martial Art of the Samurai, Crowood Press, 2013.
