Myself:
Sosuishi ryu (or Sosuishitsu ryu) Kumi Uchi Koshi no Mawari.
SSR dates from about 1650 in the Shō era, created by a Bungo-Takeda samurai named Futagami Hannosuke Masaaki. It has two major classifications, which are Kumi Uchi (Jujutsu) and Koshi no Mawari (Iaijutsu).

I practice an art called Otake Han Doshin Ryu Jujutsu. As you can tell by the name, it is a police style form of jujutsu (or taihojutsu). I like it. It's very practical and to the point. Nothing flowery.

Sei Shin Ryu, traces lineage to Yagyu Ryu if I remember correctly. Both are part of an overall sogo bujutsu program. We also do quite a bit of goshin jutsu, which might be considered an offshoot or gendai jujutsu branch.

Does anyone know which Yagyu ryu this is? There are so many "Yagyu *.*" type things active, it's hard to know which is which without a formal name or lineage.

Yes, please do send additional information. I think you are talking about Shinkage ryu, which has the nickname of Yagyu ryu but I am not sure until I start to see names. The pictures and the way it is described seems to allude to Yagyu Shingan ryu, so it seems a bit confusing.

I practice Chokushin Aiki-Jujutsu at the Musubi Dojo in Oshawa Ontario.
"Chokushin Aiki-Jujutsu is a traditional martial art that is an integration of three ryu’s (schools), these being Daito Ryu Aiki-Jujutsu, Kito Ryu Jujutsu and Tenshin Shinyo Ryu-Jujutsu. Musubi Dojo also incorporates aspects of Togakure Ryu Nijutsu in its densho. The densho (curriculum) of Chokushin Aiki Jujutsu engages all ranges of fighting from standing and striking to grappling and ground fighting. The Musubi Dojo also includes traditional and contemporary weapons such as sword, stick, and knife who’s techniques originate from Togakure Ryu Ninjutsu. However, Chokushin Aiki-Jujutsu not only encompasses fighting, but also embraces meditation, physical fitness, tradition, and philosophy. All of which promote self-confidence; self esteem, peace of mind, and respect for self and others. "
"Daito Ryu Aiki Jujutsu is the parent style of both Aikido and Hapkido. It differs from Aikido in that it makes ample use of atemi waza directed against anatomical weaknesses. Atemi always precedes the seizure and control of an opponent; this is greatly respected by all exponents of Aiki Jujutsu."
Quoted from our website which you can visit at www.musubidojo.com (http://www.musubidojo.com)

I practice and teach the two Ryuha of Jujutsu that are part of the Jinenkan.
They are, in particular, the Takagi Yoshin Ryu, and Shinden Fudo Ryu.
I had no intention of making a "commercial announcement," so I hope this isn't taken the wrong way. It's just a timely answer to this question.
This weekend we're having a "compare and contrast" seminar for most of both days, looking at the differences between the two, and why they're designed as they are.
For more info on the seminar, check out:

Trained BJJ with a purple belt from approx '96-'99. Recently, over the past year, I took up Small Circle with Ed Melaugh. Ive been kinda off and on unfortunately, due to being back to school in 6 years. Small Circle's my thing and I'll keep to it for as long as allowed. However, I do miss the rollin of years past.
Jim,
Is Ed a student of Dave Castoldi? If he is, then we are "Ju Jitsu cousins". ;)
Currently I'm studying under Leigh Rossi up here in New Hampshire, himself a student of Mr Castoldi.

:wink2:
We are, in fact, Jujitsu cousins :) - he trained with Castoldi in the early years from what I can recall of my limited knowledge of his history... then I think he moved on to Wally and now, obviously, he represents Jay's system. I don't know the specifics of his history... so don't quote me. All I know is, his teaching style is effective and addictive.. he always keeps training exciting and energized.
Never met Castoldi, anything you'd care to share? Why the move north of the border? :) Is Rossi a chess fan or player? - what's the story behind the name of the school?
Sorry I hadn't gotten back on this one Jim, I spaced it a bit :eek:
Sensei Rossi sees self defense as a strategic encounter: every technique has a counter and every counter move has itself a counter technique, very much like the game of chess. Checkmate is achieved (as I'm sure you well know) when one player has the other player in a position where he or she has no options in the game left to them, therefore loses.
Mr Rossi doesn't teach self defense as a "game", he simply uses the chess analogy as a means to explain his philosophy.

Tenjin Shinyo-ryu jujutsu under Kubota Toshihiro sensei.
A koryu from the late edo jidai that was influential in the formulation of Kodokan judo. Kano Jigoro recieved Menkyo Kaiden in Tenjin Shinyo-ryu from the 3rd generation headmaster, Iso Masatomo after his original teacher, Fukuda Hachinosuke passed away.
The school is an amalgamation of techniques that come from Yoshin-ryu and Shin No Shindo-ryu. A lot of techniques in Tenjin Shinyo-ryu are still apparent in Kodokan judo, such as osoto gari, de ashi barai, kuchiki taoshi, seoi nage, waki gatame, juji gatame, sode guruma, tsuki komi jime hadaka jime, etc.

Yabe-ryu ju-jutsu, judo, and sombo (while living overseas.) Yabe is a meji period, judo-esque offshoot of Tenjin Shinyo ryu that shows up with the two brothers moving around the United States early in the 1900's.

The Yabe brothers were in Rochester New York, lived in the area for some time. (I have news paper articles from some of there barnstorming events.) They left some folks as teachers when they left, and I trained with one of the lines.
As to the Tenjinshinyo ryu from what I can tell from the demos I have seen the tenjin guys do, there is not a lot of connection left. Our methods of practice and the focus of the ryu seem to diverge. We are randori focused and it seems the Yabe were fond of ne-waza.
If you want specifics and copies of the articles contact me directly.
Aaron Fields
www.seattle-jujutsu.org
Aaron-
Is there a weapons syllabus in Yabe-ryu? If so, is it primarily defense against weapons, use of weapons, and/or both?
And - any connection you know of with jujutsuka and fighter of the same period Taro Miyake?
Aaron T Fields
02-20-2005, 12:51
Kit,
Not really much weapon stuff at all. As to the connection to Miyake, I am not sure, but I don't think so. Is there some information you have that suggests connection between them? I have a number of newspapers adds and articles (some of the articles via Dave Lowery,) as well as four of the five books the Yabe brothers put out. But then again, I may have missed something as I tend to be more to the "go out and twist arms" and not point for point history. If you have any information I would be interested in getting copies of it.
The guys of that era and the mindset, to head out to twist some arms for fun, didn't really concern themselves with keeping history. :)
No info on it, was curious though due to the predilection for newaza you mentioned. Miyake was another "arm twister" and connected with Tani through the Tanabes of Fusen-ryu - more arm twisters. Because of that and a connection to New York, I was wondering if they had crossed paths.
Thanks for the info.

I don't think it matters so much what you study, so much as training under the best teacher available.
Mr. Muromoto is a good one. I think he would be well worth looking into regardless of what he is doing.

Hi,
The HYR group is from what I can tell an unsanctioned group that gets together to practice. I only stop by about once a month just to do hanbo stuff with them. The guy that runs the show is named Lauren Pelky (sp?). Being that they are not my main focus, I really do not care if they are authorized or not. I like the hanbo stuff and the beach where they train. Feel free to email me, bcmoon2003@yahoo.com.

Chris,
Cool. I have not yet gotten to the hanbo material. I sent you an email as well, I would be interested to hear your take regarding the influence of Takenouchi Ryu on the jujutsu of HYR. I have seen very little Takenouchi Ryu but in the history of HYR it apparently is an influence.
The taijutsu definately has a root; the founder was defeated by Takenouchi and became a "student" after three defeats. The hanbo/bo is more than likely from Kukishinden Tenshin Hyoho, which "exchanged" the taijutsu for bojutsu.

I have studyed ju-jitsu for over 35 years. My teacher was Sanzo Seki who
taught what he called Japanese Ju Jitsu. Since it is considered the MOTHER
of all Martial Arts, it had throws, ground work, kicks, atemi, nerve usage,
sword, jo,aki,resuscitation. There was so much to learn, I had just staid with it to try to learn what was available to me. My tacher would bring in other teachers who specialized in one or more of the disciplines. I got to study with
some of the best in the world, like Judo Gene, Hayward Nishioka, Kim Kahana,
who I con tinued to study with for many years.
"old saying, Its not how many styles you study, but how much knowledge and principles, can you use."
I do believe that is where I got my info too...is that the same one that ends with Takenouchi taking out his wakazashi and saying "Next time, you get this" or something like that?
Have you seen the "3-section staff" stuff? There is an embu with that in it and a magazine with a couple pictures. I believe Steve Delaney has them.

Check it out if you have not already done so: www.hontaiyoshinryu.com
I have not seen any of the three section staff, very interesting. To be honest all I have seen of the Kukishin ryu staff work is with the rokushaku bo. I am pretty much a novice.

I haven't seen it yet, but I believe the staff is called a rensa sankakubo and it is taught in the Tsutsui line of Takagi-ryu.
I've been studying Tauramuso ryu for a couple of years now, so I'm very much a beginner
There isn't much information about our style available on the internet (except either in finnish or japanese), but the style was originally a family style and went by the name of Muso ryu. The current head of style, Motomu Ikubo toryo, then modernized the style to some degree as it was in danger of being lost forever and renamed it to Tauramuso ryu. Apparently much has been lost forever. In addition to jujutsu the style contains jojutsu and tojutsu (and other weapons also).
Do you have links in Japanese?
(except either in finnish or japanese)
Do you have links in Japanese?
Yes, here (http://www.bujyutsu.com) is the homepage of Ikubo sensei. He teaches also Shorinji ryu karate, or at least taught. I'm not sure how much he teaches anymore
OK! Thought that was the link, the Karate thing threw me off.

Yes, Kusuhara line is the same as the Tsutsui line. I believe Tsutsui and Kusahara are family members.
Here's a good reference, It does not provide the Kusuhara or Inoue lines directly, but it has Tsutsui in it.

The roots of Ju-Jitsu go back over 2000 years and are deeply entrenched in Japanese history, it is known as the true martial art as it is the parent art for numerous other systems of martial arts. It was developed by the bushi (warrior class) of Japan and is defined as the art of flexibility or Adaptability. The Kyushu system of Ju-Jitsu was developed by the bushi on the island of Kyushu over seven hundred years ago.
The Samurai of Kyushu were highly trained and skilled warriors. The tradition of their training has been passed down generation to generation now resting with our teacher, Master Tadanobu Matsumotto Dionne , of Ottawa, Canada who held a Kaiden rank and was the grandmaster of the system until his death on January 8, 2004.

Do you know which ryu or system of classical jujutsu it is? And what the classical weapons system is?

Hi, I noticed that this page http://www.lonepineryu.co.uk/weap.htm mentioned that there is training in Katori Shinto-ryu. Is the instructor part of the main line (as taught by Otake-sensei) or the Sugino line?
I've only seen KSR in video documentaries and demonstrations, but I was incredibly impressed.

I have a feeling that it is from Mr. Sugawara, up there in Tokyo.
Is this right?

I study an eclectic style of Jiu Jitsu called Kyuryukan Jiu-Jitsu, but we commonly refer to it at Freestyle Jiu Jitsu. It's a mix of Japanese Jujitsu, Judo, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Karate, and Kickboxing.
It has the throws/takedowns of JJJ/Judo, the ground grappling of BJJ/Judo, and the strikes of Kickboxing/Karate.
It's a very well rounded JJ style which allows to not only be good at self defense, but to compete in Sport Jujitsu, BJJ comps, Submission Wrestling, and MMA.

I don't really consider myself a Jujutsu guy. I did train on and off with Harry Glackin from 1974 through the early 90's. Harry teaches his own blend.

Well I have done lots of jiujitsu styles over the years, but all of them were "American" type combinations.
Since 1996 I have been training here:
TPC Jiu-Jitsu (http://www.tpcjiujitsu.com)
Old thread, but new brown belt. I see you were promoted to BJJ Brown Belt in May this year. Congratulations!
As to the thread and myself. Unsuccessful student of Danzan-ryu years ago...
So am I still welcome here?
And if I am, what's to be said here about what kind of Jujutsu I practice (that being the question of the thread)?
These are reasonable questions given the situation (actually, I didn't know there was a situation but... okay.)
Am I still welcome here?:eek:

Sure. I'm not pointing a finger but since you asked, don't be surprised if you're asked to back up any claims you might make. Like I said before, there are lots of folks with decades of experience and tons of knowledge on this board and any claims of being a reborn samurai with access to hidden truths will put you squarely in the spotlight. (Not that you've made such outlandish claims, just using that as an example.)

I haven't banned or suspended your account, so that should be a hint.
Good deal then.
Great day to ya, though, I gotta go to work now. :D
ehmmm I gotta say it.
I dig that (?)avatar(?) picture from the old Star Trek TV series, Mr. Carver. Never saw that particular version before, sunglasses and peace sign.
The ultimate alien hippie?
Are you an alien, Mr. Carver? Do you represent, or have you ever represented aliens or alien authorities? ANSWER TRUE NOW!! 400 billion androids:burn: wanna know.

No, but I am the Official Earth Representative of the Inter-Galactic Martial Arts Hall of Fame and Sokeship Council (http://www.budoseek.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=19048) and you might even qualify for membership.
Oh your not an alien, good.
heh heh heh.
But unfortunately I am not a "soke", "sodai" or any of that. I'm not a headmaster. I wouldn't be interested in such perpetrations. I'm satisfied with what already exists by way of ryuha and martial arts.
Nice to know you have such high opinion of me though. More's the pity, I haven't done anything to deserve it.
Sorry to reply so late to the thread, but I study Danzan Ryu Jujitsu, with the AJJF.

Guy-one and Guy-two run into each other coming around a corner:
Guy-one: "You got your Daito-ryu in my Danzan-ryu!"
Guy-two: "You got your Danzan-ryu in my Daito-ryu!"
And that's how it all started! Or at least that's what I tell my students. But seriously, it could happen.

Care to elaborate Andrew? Couldn't find any clearly stated history regarding Shinsenka-ryu.
Some of the best training tips and other knowledge transfer come out when you buy visiting sensei drinks at the local watering hole, so genuinely I'm interested.

I practice Can-Ryu Jiu-Jitsu, founded in Canada by Professor Georges Sylvain, not too sure how you would compare it but I've heard it being described as more of a "stand up jiu-jitsu" style. We do learn ground defense but we always practice with the mentality that your opponent you're fighting has "buddies" rushing in to kick your head in. There are several schools in Canada but I practice at the Hiscoe School of Jiu-Jitsu in Ottawa.

Not much about us. My sensei taught me a family style, I 'rebranded' it when I started my own school. Really I was attempting humor, always a gamble with me ;). Simply, I have trained with some Daito and some Danzan folks, and my art appears to fall somewhere between.
Also, I appreciate that this post spans about 3 yrs... bless the interenet :)
