Really how much is there to learn in Pressure Points. Well I must confess after 8 years of intensive one on one learn with one of the best Kyusho Jitsu Grand Masters' Steve Stewart, there is still a lot for me left to learn.That is right, there really is, like any other martial art, a lifetime of information available in Kyusho, as long as you have the right instructor. Today I am continually traveling to work with Grand Master Stewart, teaching Novice and Advanced Kyusho Classes in my dojo, working on my Novice Online Study Course as well as my upcoming Advance DVD set, and my Advanced Online Study Course. I am also traveling to other countries setting up on site learning groups there. So with all that in mind, lets talk a little more about advanced study and Alarm Points.
Alarm Points in Kyusho are places on the body, that when struck with the correct angle and direction, using the correct stance and striking action will have a devastating effect on the body. People have seen me knock Uki's out hitting the body, and this is done with Alarm Points.
What do Alarm Points do? Aside from causing a very devastating effect on the meridian, they also directly affect the corresponding organ on the body. As an example, and as stated in a video I posted a few days back, hitting the point LU-1, which is the Alarm Point for lung, I will activate Lung bi-laterally, both sides of the body, as well as Triple Warmer on both sides of the body. Below is a breakdown of all the Alarm Points.
- Lung - LU1
- Large Intestine - ST-25
- Stomach - CO-12
- Spleen LI-13
- Heart CO-14
- Small Intestine - CO-4
- Bladder CO-3
- Kidney - GB-25
- Pericardium CO-17
- Triple Warmer CO-5
- Gall Bladder GB-24
- Liver LI-14
Depending on the Alarm Point the effects can be very different. Any strike at conception will active all the YIN meridians as well as Triple Warmer. A strike to stomach, liver or GB Alarm Points will also effect the meridian struck.
Now this is just a short explanation, just to let you know some of the information available to you! I have not even begun to cover Alarm Points or the Associated Alarm Points on the back. There is a world of information available to you in the pressure point art of Kyusho Jitsu.
