Description

"In contrast to karate, which has been steadily gaining popularity all over the world for the past few decades, the ancient martial arts of Okinawa ( Okinawa Kobudo) have, for lack of instructors and people to carry on the tradition, receded and were at one time in danger of being almost totally forgotten. But they are one wing of the same system from which karate developed and have indeed been the basis on which karate has grown. The two - ancient Okinawan martial arts and karate - are like wheels at the opposite end of the same axle. It is clearly a mistake, therefore, to consider karate to be the only Okinawan martial art. It is a very fortunate thing that, in more recent years, the and persevering efforts of many martial arts masters, are being reappraised. Their true values are beginning to be understood by many people, including those engaged in the study of karate. I personally am very happy to see this turn in events. The efforts of people carrying out this kind of study can help deepen the general understanding of all martial arts, both modern and ancient. In addition, such study can help in developing the spiritual personalities of martial arts students, can introduce the ancient martial arts to the world, and can become a field worthy of inclusion in educational programs at all levels. In connection with this study, all of us concerned with the ancient martial arts of Okinawa owe a debt of gratitude to the late Shinken Taira, who developed the foundation on which all future work in the field must proceed. This book is one part of that work, and in its production and publication a number of persons have contributed valuable time, talent, and effort." -- Ryusho Sakagami • • •  • Historical Background • Nunchaku - Parts of the Nunchaku - Characteristics • Sai - Parts of the Sai - Characteristics • Stances • Positions • Basic Furi • Nunchaku Kumite • Basic Nunchaku Kata • Positions Used with the Sai • Employing the Sai • Basic Furi • Sai Kata • Sai Kumite
