Yleistä keskustelua itsepuolustuslajeista, ja olis ihan jees jos eri lajeja harrastavat voisivat vaikka pitää pienen esittelyn omasta lajistaan. Koitan tehdä informaatiorikkaan ketjun, jos kuitenkin lähtee lapasesta, lupaan osallistua ketjun pilaamiseen!
Bujinkan is a martial arts organization practicing the art commonly referred to as Bujinkan Budö Taijutsu. The art is widely considered to be the last legitimate ninpo, or ninja, martial art, particularly because of the influence of Togakure ryu. It is headed by the Sõke of the school Masaaki Hatsumi. Masaaki Hatsumi states he is the lineage holder of the nine ryüha transferred to him in the middle of the 20th Century by his teacher Takamatsu Toshitsugu. The Bujinkan is specifically known for its koshijutsu, koppojutsu, jutaijutsu, dakentaijutsu, and happo hikenjutsu in addition to its higher elements of ninpõ and ninjutsu.
The Bujinkan incorporates the teachings of nine koryü (old schools)[5]:
* Togakure-ryü Ninpõ Taijutsu
* Gyokko-ryü Kosshijutsu
* Kuki Shinden Happõ Bikenjutsu
* Kotõ-ryü Koppõjutsu
* Shinden Fudõ-ryü Dakentaijutsu
* Takagi Yõshin-ryü Jõtaijutsu
* Gikan-ryõ Koppõjutsu
* Gyokushin-ryü Ninpõ
* Kumogakure-ryü Ninpõ
The training is generally referred to as taijutsu (body arts), and is composed of both armed and unarmed methods of fighting. Much of the basic taijutsu taught to beginners comes from six primary lineages in the Bujinkan compendium, namely Kotõ-ryü, Gyokko-ryü, Shinden Fudõ-ryü, Takagi Yõshin-ryü, Kuki Shinden-ryü, and Togakure-ryü.
A large variety of weapons are taught, including swords such as daitõ, wakizashi and tantõ, bamboo shinai, wooden bokken, mogito (a flexible aluminum replica sword that holds no edge), or swords made by soft modern materials are employed for safety such as fukuro shinai, staves of varying lengths (bõ, jõ), short staves called (hanbõ, hanjõ), nawa (rope), kusari-fundo (weighted chain), kusarigama (scythe with chain), yari (spear), kamayari (spear with curved scythe-like blades crossing the principal head), kagiyari (spear with 2 rearward hooks), bisento (known in Mandarin as 'kwandao'), kyoketsu shoge (similar to a kama except it has a dagger point and a rope of several feet attached to an iron ring), jutte (sword trapping truncheon), tessen (iron fan), naginata (Japanese glaive), kunai (a blunt digging tool), as well various form of shuriken including bo-shuriken and senban shuriken. In training, students are encouraged to always use any available weapons, including the environment. In some dojos, students will practice hiding training weapons in their ji or somewhere on the mat, and surprise their uke (training partner) during technique. In many other martial art styles, such an act, may consequently result in "harsh" disciplinary punishment. However, the emphasis Bujinkan places on stealth and deception makes it a valuable exercise when practicing awareness.
Bujinkan Budõ Taijutsu practice does not include participation in competitions or contests.
The Bujinkan Dõjõ has a series of nine kyü (grades) below the level of shodan, starting with mukyu ("without grade") and then from kukyu (9 kyu) to ikkyu (1 kyu), with 9 kyu being the lowest rank and 1 kyu being the highest. Just like in other Japanese martial arts, such as karate and judo, unranked (mukyü) practitioners wear white belts, and those with ranks of shõdan and above wear black belts. Kyü level practitioners wear colored belts, though the actual color of the belt varies from place to place. Furthermore, unlike other martial arts, the color has no relation to the actual kyu-level the practitioner holds. In Japan, it was once customary for kyu-level men to wear green belts and women to wear red belts; however, this practice has largely been abandoned. Now, both male and female Bujinkan practitioners wear green belts at most Japanese dõjõ. Outside of Japan, some countries still follow the green for men/red for women custom, while others use green for all practitioners.
There were originally 9 dan levels, as with many other martial arts using the kyü/dan system, but this was changed by Hatsumi to 10 and later, 15 dan levels. He then went on to joke that now with the mature age being 21, maybe he should raise it again. The grades are divided into three groupings; 1-5 dan Ten (Heaven), 6-10 dan Chi (Earth), 11-15 dan Jin (Man, in the sense of Humanity). The Jin levels are further divided into the five elements of the Godai; chi (earth), sui (water), ka (fire), fü (wind) and kü (void).
The practitioner's level is displayed by the color of the art's emblem, called wappen, inscribed with the kanji "bu" and "jin". There are four kinds of wappen (9 to 1 kyü, 1 to 4 dan, 5 to 9 dan, and 10 to 15 dan) sometimes augmented with up to four silver or gold stars (called hoshi) above or around the emblem, representing the individual ranks.
At 4 dan (yondan), practitioners submit to a test before the sõke to establish that they are able to sense the presence of danger and evade it, considered to be a fundamental survival skill. This is called sakki. This is the test for 5 dan. A practitioner with the level of godan or above is entitled to apply for a teaching license (shidõshi menkyo). A shidõshi is entitled to open his own dõjõ, and grade students up to the level of 4 dan. A practitioner with the level of between 1 dan to 4 dan may become a licensed "assistant teacher" (shidõshi-ho), if backed by and acting under the supervision of a shidõshi 5th to 9th dan or a person who holds the level of 10 dan (jüdan). In the Bujinkan a person who holds the level of between 10 dan and 15 dan is often referred to as a shihan.
In addition to the kyü/dan system, a few practitioners have earned menkyo kaiden "licenses of complete transmission" in individual schools. These menkyo kaiden essentially establish that the master practitioner has learned all that there is to learn about the particular lineage. Whereas the kyü/dan ranks are often made public, those select practitioners who have earned menkyo kaiden rarely divulge their status, sometimes even being reluctant to recognize their actual dan ranking to outsiders

Todella mielenkiintoinen laji joka koostuu enemmänkin elämäntapana itsensä käsittelemiseen kuin toisen turpaan murjomiseen. Liikesarjoja on hyvä reenata hidastettuna harjoitusaseiden kera ja ilman, kys. laji toimii loistavana liikuntana ja "meditaationa". Mahtava harrastus jos hakee rauhallista ja mielenkiintoista kulttuuririkasta lajia joissa itsensä kehittäminen säilyy suurimpana päämääränä.
Eniten iski sensein sanat ensimmäisillä tunneilla jotka kuuluivat about näin.
"Tässä lajissa voit unohtaa pasifistisuuden. Jos kissa ajaa hiiren nurkkaan hiiri taistelee varmasti vastaan. Pasifistisuus ei kulje osana tätä lajia mutta mielen ja kehon tasapaino ratkaisee miten hyvin pärjäät. En kuitenkaan rohkaise teitä käyttämään näitä taitoja siviilielämässä koska tuskin näistä liikesarjoista mihinkään nakkarijonotappeluihin on"
