A Beginning History of Old School Jujutsu Part 1

From the History of Old School Jujutsu Part 1 From the History of Old School Jujutsu Part 1 During these two days will be an article written in the history of prewar Japanese jujitsu / judo. I did not know where to start, but I am here we go starting with started.I Irving H. Hancock, who in the early 1900s, has written several books on the history of physical education and Japanese jujitsu. I start with the book written in Japanese in 1903. "She then studied at Nagasaki, in the San Inouye, instructor of Jiu-Jitsu in the department of police of this city." It was the first time I heard Inouye. Now, if you look at the other book Hancock Jiu-Jitsu Combat Tricks written a year later, in 1904: "Representatives of the School of Jiu-Jitsu Tenjin have developed in all its perfection can be a way to stop the coup boxer who does not may be exceeded for cleaning performance, efficiency and speed. This is a characteristic that applies only to stop a shot from the left to the boxer. "Before leaving this book, the reason for these two awards are: 1st) The mention of Inouye, Jiu-Jitsu instructor Nagasaki police dept.2). The mention of "Tenjin / Tenshin" and later, you see where I'm going with this.Another listing is very interesting. "In Japan, the entire cycle of Jiu-Jitsu requires four years." This seems very reasonable, as I read that in 15 years to get a Shiny Menkyo Kaiden in Tenjin Ryu today. The question is, why so long? I did not spend 15 years as art.At this point I would like to mention another book on the old Jiu-Jitsu, "the school of Jiu Jitsu YABE" written in 1904 by yae Kich Yabe. Yabe In the book he says that the system is based on that of "Tenshin". Even in this book is the phase "Vital Keys" used to describe Atem or "Ate! Professor John J. O'Brien said he graduated Jiu Jitsu in 1905, the Governor of Nagasaki. O'Brien spent ten years as inspector of police in Nagasaki. It 'was responsible for introducing Presiedent Teddy Roosevelt in Jiu Jitsu, as well as instructions Colonel AJ Drexel Biddle.Next we Colonel W. Risher Thornberry. Thornberry has written several books on jujitsu from 1905 to 1933. Jiu-Jitsu in his first book written in 1905, the first page is very interesting. It shows a picture of Professor Kishoku Inouye, instructor of the police in Nagasaki. At the top of the page reads, "Jiu-Jitsu - As taught by Prof. Inouye more than 2,000 officers and soldiers on the front line." Reference to the Russian / Japanese war.This book was written a year or two after the book by Hancock. They show Inouye & Tenshin. A precise connection is beginning to develop.An Thornberry interesting book, "Jiu-Jitsu is a weapon in the form of" vital key Atem ", which can be used with the thumb, close the hands, elbows, training, the edge of the hand, or even with your head. "Again, why mention this quotation is the use of the word" Vital button. Research shows that Thornberry actively taught Jiu-Jitsu. One student was the Samuel R. Thornberry Lincke. Lincke then in 1943 published a book entitled "Fighting Jiu Jitsu. A very good book. Lincke studied under Thornberry in Los Angeles for a number of years. Lincke received a Master can Thornberry "Tenshin Ryu" of May 6 Lincke 1935.In the book, which offers a brief history of Jiu-Jitsu. "These art forms are closely guarded and only taught to the samurai or warrior class, the group now known as Black Dragon." Lincke taught a man named George Tate. Lincke Tate and taught a class Jiu-Jitsu in Los Angeles. Later, Tate Lincke success as an instructor and continued to teach and train Jiu-Jitsu. Tate became the Jiu-Jitsu instructor for the police service in Los Angeles and, later, led the class Judo Club.Copyright 2003?
