This is a thread to discuss the history and training within Wado ryu, given that it is quite a bit different than the other traditional karate lineages.
I'd like to start by asking how much of Yoshin ryu jujutsu is still taught within the Wado ryu curriculum? Does it still contain two person kumitachi? I ask this since these were the basis of most koryu systems, and I'm wondering how much of the koryu training methodology was retained when Wado ryu was created.
