JOJUTSU
Jojutsu, according to legend, was created by Muso
Gonnosuke 400 years ago. Muso Gonnosuke using a bo
dueled with Miyamoto Musashi. Musashi, using his two
sword method defeated Gonnosuke but spared his life.
Afterwards Gonnosuke spent time in seclusion training and
meditating where he had a vision that led to the creation of
jojutsu.

Specifically designed for defense against the sword, the jo is
a short wooden staff approximately 4 foot long.  Its size and
length allow for quick varied movements allowing its user
the maneuverability needed to overcome an attacker
wielding a sword.  

Our training consists of suburi (swinging drills), kata
(prearranged forms), tachiuchi (sparring), jo-tori (empty hand
vs. attacker w/jo), and jo-nage (empty hand attacker vs.
defender with jo).
