SCHEDULE:

At this beginning level you will learn the “FOUNDATION” which is an overview of the 9 schools and their weapons to prepare you for the deeper study of Budo Taijutsu and principles.

After learning a very solid overview of the “FOUNDATION” you will begin to explore the actual schools (ryu) material in a more in-depth way by studying the principles and partner exchange forms called waza. Unlike a kata which is performed by oneself to perfection, waza are interactive drills that are done with at least 2 persons both in a formal way and with many variations so that the principles of the school can also be learned. Waza also helps you learn timing, distancing, and eventually true budo / warrior protection methods. Each of the 9 schools have their own focus and attributes.

Budo Taijutsu is a practical natural real combat and philosophical martial arts system. We train both unarmed and armed (both ancient, exotic and modern). In the battlefield proven samurai and ninja methods, and in modern applications.

You will learn the master principles of the art so you can apply things like: 

Body conditioning, falls, rolls, leaping skills, punching, kicking, grappling, throws, locks, countering attacks, striking weak points, postures, footwork, taijutsu integration, distancing, timing, angling, awareness training, control without grabbing, determining space, any technique with any weapon, unattached commitment, stealth movements, and more...
