Kyusho Seminars

If you have never been to a Kyusho Seminar I would highly recommend it. My first taste of Kyusho was back in 2001 at a seminar in London Ontario. Once I attended that there was no looking back for me. Below is a video taken from a seminar I did back in July 2009. It covers the basics, nothing fancy, just the foundation to get someone started in the art and science of Kyusho Jitsu.



This is very similar to much of the information covered in our Novice Kyusho Jitsu Certification Programs as well as out Kyusho Jitsu Home Study Course. For more information on hosting a Kyusho Seminar at your dojo follow this link.

How to Make Joint Locks more Effective

My root art is Hapkido. We do joint locks and until I discovered Kyusho Jitsu I thought we did them well. Below is a video sample of joint manipulation using the principles of Kyusho Jitsu. If you have any questions please feel free to drop by our Kyusho Canada Website and post them in our forums. If you would like information on learning the art of Kyusho Jitsu at home please visit our Home Study Course Website.

Effectiveness of Kyusho

Here is a video in which I talk about the effectiveness of Kyusho Jitsu and why you might want to consider adding it to you current training.

My Kyusho Rant

This is a rant entirely for the non believers of Kyusho, most mostly the ones who speak ot against it knowing nothing except for maybe attending one seminar. I was in London on the weekend working with my instructor Steve Stewart. He did a knockout on some who did not know he was going to be KOed. After the setup strikes he was hit a large intestine 20 and went down hard. No one will fall backwards like this naturally. The body will not allow it, unless they are unconscious!

Now why am I telling you all this? Because I was the one who caught this 220 lbs young man. He fell so hard and fast his elbow collided with my bicep and ruptured the disel tendon. Less than 24 hours ago I had it reattached by a surgeon.
