Tekkenryu Jujutsu means “Iron Fist” Close Combat System

 

Tekkenryu Jujutsu was founded in 2000 by the legend of Close Combat and Self Defense. This system embodies his life in the martial arts and self defense. The purpose of Tekkenryu Jujutsu is to give students all the self defense and martial arts training they would ever need and provide a complete martial arts experience. Tekkenryu Jujutsu is considered by many to be the ultimate “martial art for self defense”.

The system consists of proven World War II hand-to-hand combat techniques, devastating knock down karate techniques of Shitoryu Karate and the Dynamic striking methods of Japanese Nippon Kempo. The system also includes the entire Judo syllabus as create by Mikonosuke Kawaishi Sensei. Kawaishi developed this system of instruction to be specifically taught to westerners. And finally you will learn the Aikijujutsu methods of Daitoryu Jujutsu and modern close quarters weapons. But rather than use the Daitoryu syllabus, the syllabus from Shinan Okazaki’s Danzanryu was used because it was a more progressive teaching method, similar to that of Kawaishi’s Judo.

The purpose of the structure of Tekkenryu Jujutsu is simple: to teach adults. Adults need two things to survive, to be in the best physical shape possible and to have the most effective and brutal techniques possible. In the beginning of your training you will be taught the most effective, easiest to learn methods of self defense. The feeling was to teach these methods right away, so that if someone were only to study Tekkenryu for a year, they would at least know techniques and strategies to survive, this way the obligation of the instructor would be fulfilled.

Self Defense is Simple, Studying a Martial Art Takes Sacrifice

As you choose to continue your study you will discover Tekkenryu Jujutsu is NOT about learning to fight. As you concentrate on more advanced skills that take longer to develop, you’ll see that learning to fight is simple, but really studying a true martial art is about over coming obstacles, getting out of your comfort zone and trying new things and finally, helping others.  

How Tekkenryu Jujutsu Uses Sport Martial Arts To Make Awesome Self Defense

It is important to understand that even though this is a system of self defense, it is important to use sporting methods to help you develop real fighting skills. Like Shinan Antonio Pereira, founder of Miyamaryu Jujutsu used to say “Judo makes your jujutsu work in the street”.

Even though many benefits can be gained by any martial sport or mixed martial art, we choose Judo and Karate Bogu fighting as our primary methods. The reason for these methods are simple, they both instill a sense of urgency, they reinforce the correct distance and position, plus they allow you to feel a sense of combat in a controlled, safe environment.

Judo develops balance in a grappling position and it forces you to gain a dominant position and on the ground and instills a sense of urgency to end the fight and not to wait.

Using the bogu (traditional protective sparring gear, like kendo armor) recreates some of the effects of stress like tunnel vision, limited mobility and auditory exclusion. It also trains you to hit hard and fast. You will quickly develop a deep understanding of momentum, position, distance and balance. If trained correctly, you will know how to move with purpose and strike with power.

Both sporting methods are excellent tools for conditioning and hardening you body for actual combat. Combined with the technical instruction of Tekkenryu Jujutsu, it makes the most devastating reality martial art training program ever conceived.

Mastering this incredible art will give so much more than a complete close combat system. You will be part of a lineage that continues to build in legend and notoriety.

A Brief History Martial Arts and Self Defense

Many martial arts and self defense systems are derived from military combatives; the study of hand-to-hand combat and martial arts in warfare. After all, the term "martial art" means "art of warfare." For example, the sport of judo comes from jujutsu, which comes from samurai grappling, which was part of the training Japanese warriors received as preparation for battle.

Many weapon-oriented martial arts, such as iado, kendo, kyudo and naganata-do originated in schools of martial techniques for warriors. These weapons, the sword, bow and arrow, and pole arm, were the assault rifles and machine guns of their time--the default weapons of military fighters--and as such were key components in combat training.

The Western interest in East Asian Martial arts dates back to the late 19th Century AD, due to the increase in trade between America with China and Japan. Relatively few Westerners actually practiced the martial arts, considering it to be mere performance.

Edward William Barton-Wright, a railway engineer who had studied the martial art Jujutsu while working in Japan between 1894-97, was the first man known to have taught Asian martial arts in Europe. He also founded an eclectic martial arts style named Bartitsu which combined jujutsu, judo, boxing, savate and stick fighting.

William E. Fairbairn, a Shanghai policeman and at the time a leading Western expert on Asian fighting techniques, was recruited during world War II by the Special Operations Executive (SOE) to teach UK, U.S. and Canadian Commando and Ranger forces Jujutsu.

The seminal self-defense book Kill or Get Killed was written by Colonel Rex Applegate, who worked closely with Fairbairn to train the "First Special Service," a joint U.S. and Canadian army unit; it became a classic military treatise on hand to hand combat and created the reality based martial art "Defendu." Modern variations that can still trace an authentic lineage to Applegate are very few.

Seeing the need to bring these legitimate and proven techniques and method of close-combat back into the Modern world of "hobby" Martial Arts (Karate, Kung Fu, Capoiera, Aikido, etc.) and "sport" Martial Arts (Judo, Brazilian Jui-jitsu, Wrestling, Kick Boxing, Mixed Martial Arts, Ultimate fighting , etc.), Yoshisada Yonezuka, Damian Ross, Roger Jones and Peter Barry have dedicated their lives to teaching, instruction, and spreading the "truth" about Martial Arts, street fighting, self defense, and close combat.
