The aspects of nanbudo.

BUDO-HO

Nanbudo based on dodging offers various combinations of Atemi (strikes), Nage (projections), Barai (swipes), Kansetsu (twists, immobilizations), Shime (throttles).

RANDORI

Randori No Kata :

Randori are forms of codified fight of 2 persons. Seven attacks are presented with seven defenses. These are all based on the side dodges. Each Randori no Kata has a specificity.

We practice dodging, falling, linear or circular counter-fist, counter-attack, sweeping, release of seizures, key-twists of limbs, projection, simultaneous attack and defense, energy techniques, kneeling fights …

Starting from a list of 21 Randori, the list has evolved and can evolve as combinations and variants are possible with the possibility of doing them in Gyaku (instead of dodging outwards, it is possible to dodge inward), single attacks (2 oi tsuki, 2 mae geri, 2 mawashi geri and final oi tsuki), we can move on to combined attacks called Sotai (2 oi tsuki, 2 mae geri jun tsuki, 2 mawashi geri Gyaku tsuki, final oi tsuki), the possibility of adding techniques or combining several defenses.

Fights in movement, attacks are codified, defenses are codified, roles are defined, Tori attacking Uke 7 times before swapping roles.

Ju-randori :

Ju-Randori are fights in movement where attacks are codified as for Randori, only the techniques of defense are free. For part this will constitute the basis of the fight competition.

Nanbu Sotai Randori no Kata :

The Sotai Randori are also forms of fights codified of 2 persons. Six combined foot-fist attacks are presented with six defenses. These are all based on a rear dodge by absorption. Each Sotai Randori no Kata has a specificity.

The study devoted in particular to projections multiplies the possibilities of Sotai Randori, well over 50 of which a list of 18 far from being exhaustive is presented hereunder.

NORYOKU KAHATSU-HO

It is a philosophy of nanbudo which was built by the experience and the thoughts of Nanbu Doshu Soke, and which contributes to unify Budo-Ho and Kido-Ho.

We have several tools :

Dojo Kun :

Rules of behavior in the Dojo but above all the essence of Yoshinao Nanbu Doshu Soke’s teaching, support on the path to nanbudo.

San I Ittai :

Basic concepts concerning the interactions between Nanbudo (the way), Tai (the body) and Sei (the spirit).

It is also necessary to forge the mind, technique is not enough. Budo is beyond technique, the mental strength that will allow the fight not to take place.

Budo is also self-realization.

For this we have exercises of autosuggestion, meditation, visualization, in order to find the energy and the positivity which make it possible to walk on the path despite the difficulties and to set life goals.

Nanbudo Mitsu no Chikara :

The three principles of Nanbudo. These three principles combined, repeated, allow to self-motivate, to have the energy to take action and persevere.

Chikara da, Yuki da, Shinen da : Force, Courage, Conviction.

Nanbudo Nanatsu no Chikara :

The seven forces of Nanbudo. Linked to the three principles, the seven forces of Nanbudo are a visualization method for progressing on the path (Do).

Tai Ryoku, Tan ryoku, Handan Ryoku, Danko Ryoku, Sei Ryoku, No Ryoku, Seimei Ryoku.

Nanbu Doshu Soke has given himself principles of life, Jinseikun. Each and everyone is free to adopt them or to create their own:

Shogai Keiko : continue to practice throughout one’s life

Shogai Yuki : base one’s life on courage and perseverance

Shogai Shinnen : lead a life guided by one’s convictions
