... do you know where your Kobujitsu/kobudo came from? or even your empty hand styles linage? :drinkbeer
Does your style teach weapons? if so what weapons are taught? do you know where your Kobujitsu/kobudo came from? or even your empty hand styles linage? :drinkbeer
Goju and Matayoshi kobudo, and my instructors trained with Matayoshi, so straight from the source.
We're pared down and train only the following on a regular basis:
Bo (7 kata), sai, tonfa, nunchaku, sansetsukon, kuwa, eku, kama and chisikunbo
I'm embarrassed to say I don't know what some of those are...

I have never heard of this chisikunbo, it was never referenced at my old club or the goju club I now attend; the first is from this post and now some googling, a "reverse knuckleduster" so to speak. We mainly work bo, tonfa and primarily nunchuku kata. Will ask about these chisikunbo but they do not overly appeal aside from the excellent concealed nature. Aside from adding weight or support to a punch are they as a weapon used mainly in what would be palm strikes or hammer fists? Are they also applied on small circle locks, ie wrist locks?
Thanks
. I thought it was pure body because of "empty hand"
I didn't know that there are karates that teach weaponry. I thought it was pure body because of "empty hand". It's nice to learn something new.
