Part of the description of the video ---
The name (Tatsu-Ryu-Bushido) corresponds with "The way of the warrior [through] the style of the dragon." The "Tatsu-Ryu-Bushido" is based on the written record of the sword-fighting style "Niten-Ichi-Ryu" (two-heaven-school) of probably the most famous sword fighter, Miyamoto Mushashi (1584-1645) and his instruction of the five elements of the "Gorin-No-Sho" (earth, water, fire, wind, and emptiness), blah blah blah.... The Japanese martial art was called "Tatsu-Ryu-Bushido" by Christian Wierderanders in 1987 ('ins leben' is hard for me to figure out what that implies... it means 'in life' but maybe it could mean 'during his life'... who cares? it's not important)... moving on... Tatsu-Ryu-Bushido deals with a very diversified and traditionally-oriented (sorry, I said 'oriental' in a previous post but read it too fast) martial art with and without [use of] weapons, in which everyone has [or, determines, perhaps] his own individual development. As a result, age, gender and physical abilities (that's loose translation) are unimportant to start this "Way". Tatsu-ryu-Bushido is more than just a sport. It is not a "fighting sport" or competition sport. The goal of the practical excercises of this martial art is individual development of the spirit and self-discipline. As far as physical aspects are concerned, learning and command of weaponless fighting belongs to this martial art. Here, one systematically learns such things as: proper stance, falling, escape techniques, distance techniques (hitting, stabbing, kicking, hard block techniques), to overpower an opponent through bodily contact (throws, "sicheln"(??), soft blocking techniques), and to take the opponent's power and redirect it. Experienced students endeavor towards a realistic and practical implementation of the martial art. ... |

The sword point(?) of the weapons-schooling lies in the application of the japanese samurai sword "katana" (long sword), the learning of which begins with the "bokken" (wooden sword). The goal of this is the simultaneous handling of the two swords "wakazashi" (short sword) and "katana" (long sword), as once practiced by Miyamoto Musashi. The education (or 'formation') [continues] with more traditional wood- or metal-weapons such as the tanbo, nitanbo, jo, bo, jitte, tanto, yari, naginata, shuriken, and tessen .... [and something along the lines of] all this is dealt with in sequence up through and including 2.dan....
Training in the woods and 'free nature' is included in the formation/education, both in groups and individually. The [student] will [learn to] use strategy and [helpful, naturally-found stuff] to survive in terrain/woods/wilderness/whatever... Theoretical background such as japanese language, writing, history and culture is part of the whole program and.. blah blah... a glimpse into the life of Japan, both today and during the time of the samurai.. Since April 2009, tatsu-ryu-bushido was tested and recommended, with accreditation in 'prevention training'(?), by the German Medical Association and the German Olympic Committee. |

no prob... didn't think i'd have time during the work day to type it all up...
i thinke everybody picks musashi because that's just the big name that will garnish zillions of hits on google. i find it more interesting that they list 'shuriken' as part of their musashi-influenced style... maybe they ought to rename it mushashi-ninjutsu-ryu .... just a thought. |
