The book addresses important aspects of the combat art of Traditional Japanese Jujutsu and lists and explains the key principles that drive the execution of technique when fighting in distance, close quarter and on the ground. It is intended for Western Jujutsu instructors and their more serious students.
It also explores a number of little known areas that don't often receive much attention in martial arts books, and speaks to some of the mostly "hidden" aspects of the art. For example, are you interested in knowing how to help students achieve mind-body harmony, and why this state is essential for combat, self defense, competition, or class learning? It's all in Chapter VI. Is peak experience, flow, or being "in the zone" a precondition for generating Ki Power?
When it happens, martial artists report that they suddenly find themselves in an alternate state of reality; they feel shots of powerful energy coursing through their body and, psychologically, they feel empowered and invincible! Does this sound familiar to you? Read Chapter X and find out how such power may be developed. One of the most beneficial ways of training involves brain stimulation. This is a method that enhances the efficiency of the brain through neurogenesis, and contributes to a superior quality of movement (see Chapter VIII). And don't let some of the tech jargon put you off. The process is about stimulating the brain through Jujutsu to develop more communication pathways in your head so that you can think fast, move more fluidly and with control. It's amazing how this works! And the process is supposed to slow down the aging process as well. Sign me up!
We all know that off-balancing (Kuzushi) is essential in both competition and self defense. However, did you know that you must move your opponent to a point called Rikiten in order to achieve maximum efficiency with minimum effort? What is Rikiten and how do you get there? You probably know that in terms of generating power some martial arts are driven by mostly Internal Principles while others rely on mostly External Principles. Internal Systems stress the development of both internal and external sources of power generation by focusing their training on several key principles.
External Systems, however, are based primarily on the use of strength, speed and force. Clearly, the training effects of Internal Systems are superior because they make technique execution relatively effortless. Again, maximum efficiency with minimum effort. And, get this! Most exponents of Internal Systems such as Traditional Jujutsu and Traditional Kodokan Judo are able to work out into their '70s and '80s.
​Practitioners in External Systems, however, are often unable to continue past their late '40s or '50s! Read the book and find out why. In fighting situations things often go wrong and you must adjust on the fly if you are to survive, or defeat your opponent. In this book we discuss how to train to deal with such chaotic and unpredictable situations by using the Principles of Transitioning in Chaotic Fighting Environments. If you incorporate these principles in the training of your students you'll find that they are better able to improvise on the fly and handle chaotic situations in self defense, or competition, more effectively.
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to study in Japan as an Uchideshi? World-renowned Aikido master Patrick Auge spent seven years in Japan and in Chapter XIII he discusses everything you need to know before you embark on such a journey. A must read! In Chapter XIV we discuss how psychological needs arise and how Traditional Jujutsu and Judo can help satisfy them.
Such information can help the Dojo Owner/Head Instructor to position his/her dojo correctly to attract the right type of students. Such info aids in recruitment by helping you direct what your art is about (what it teaches and the needs it satisfies) to the right target audiences.
