"Thrust Like a Spear, Sweep Like a Naginata, Wield Like a Sword: The Ever-Adapting Art of Jodo"
"It was only after learning Shinto Muso Ryu Jojutsu that I truly understood the essence of the sword."
—Hirodo Nakayama, legendary swordsman of the Taisho and Showa eras
Feared in the past as Kuroda's Jo and cherished today as both an effective weapon art and a method of mental and physical cultivation, Jodo holds a timeless appeal.
This DVD presents the essence and techniques of Shinto Muso Ryu Jojutsu, one of the most prominent traditional schools of the art. Expertly demonstrated and explained by Jojinkai, a leading group of next-generation instructors, this program provides an in-depth exploration of skills designed to counter swordsmanship. These techniques, said to have been devised to defeat the legendary Musashi Miyamoto, are a treasure trove of insights for martial artists of all disciplines.
(Note: The Kuroda clan of the Fukuoka domain developed bojutsu and jojutsu techniques so fearsome that they struck terror into outlaws.)
