Yoshin Ryu Naginata Jutsu demonstration by Oyama Noriko Soke and her students by during the 2017 40th all Japan Aikido Kobudo Demonstration at the Nippon Budokan. -- Official presentation by the Kobudo association -- Founded by Shirobei Yoshitoki who lived around1490-1571, most likely born in Kyushu. From there, the art spread and is now mainly taught in Hiroshima. This art is mostly practiced and transmitted by women. As one can be attacked in any situation, the most logical trainings gear would be everyday clothing - and that is the reason why they are wearing Kimono. As the founder had a background in medicine, it is also taught how some parts of the clothing can be used as bandages in case of need. Practitioners of this art study over 70 techniques to be prepared for every attack and every situation, which they should face with a state of mind "as graceful as a weeping willow, cutting flesh and breaking bones". Originally, the curriculum of the Yoshinryu included weapons like the Ken, Hanbo, Kusarigama, long and short spear, and techniques without weapons, but is now focusing on the Naginatajutsu. -- Practionners -- Oyama Noriko Soke Naito Mayumi Urayama Motoaki Katani Jun Takeuchi Rina Kawahara Yoko Izumi Miyu -- CREDITS -- Footage by Seido Co., Ltd.: https://www.seidoshop.com (en) http://www.seidoshop.jp (jp) http://www.budoexport.com (fr) Music: Higekitekina (悲劇的な) by Fabian Measures https://creativecommons.org/licenses/...
