SUMMARY
Keep this in mind
CONCEPT
Karate is based on the Ryukyu Bo in its original form - this can be seen in the Okinawan GOJU systems
In Japan the Karate development in Dojo was influenced by Kendo - this can be seen in the Japanese SHOTO systems
Kihon Ippon Kumite - neutral stance, concepts based on Iaido
Jiyu Ippon Kumite - fighting stance, concepts based on Kenjutsu
This week we are going back to the Mat to cover Jujutsu and Judo
JUDO in Japanese Dojo was also influenced by Kendo
AIKIDO directly has JO and BOKKEN in it's practice, and this can be seen in how the Projections work
This will all be referred to and covered over coming sessions
