Jo is usually under the head of the fighter, really?

[anrei0000]

@carlosescipion a jo should be just about as high as your shoulder. i think that is a bo, because it is about as high as the man wielding it.

[ihaterobbie123]

@anrei0000 No it's not a bo, a bo is taller than it's wielder.

Also a jo should come up to mid chest height, but with short people it may be higher.

[HandleTurner]

Two real Masters. Very humbling. Thank you for posting this.

[londonelvis]

holy moly...that was fantastic!

i've got PLENTY of work to do with my jo!

[cjk122]

wait... this is ONE kata? woa! it seems to be as complicated as 7 of the kendo katas toghether!

great vid, thanks for uploading it

[tubetubetube]

Yes, one kata. The most awesome too! :)

[JunseiRyuHoshinJutsu]

Thanks for the vid clip. I really love seeing Kodachi (shoto) swordsmanship, even when they are at the loosing end of a length of two-by-four. I am also glad that many of the techniques I practice have managed to make it into the modern era undiluted.

Thanks again

[basilolo]

That's just amazing ! It looks so real!

[oloxander]

Isn't it ? ;-)

[Wiegieboard]

Do you know who it was and who died from the injuries??

[BOZOYASU]

たいへん貴重な清水先生の映像です。ありがとうございます。

[rawkus1020]

if anyone has the whole video of this can you please please post it on u tube i think there is 30 kihons in total

[FredDude27]

The above clip shows the "Ran ai" KATA using kodachi. It is not kihon. The number of basic techniques (kihon) are 12....or 13 depending on how you count them.

[oniserva]

Thank you for putting this video up. good video of jojutsu is hard to find.

[Kensh1D]

thanks for sharing this.didnt know jojutsu had any kind of kodachi work.

[FredDude27]

Seitei Jodo doesn't, though the main school Shinto Muso ryu has several including two swords at once. If youre familiar with Seitei Jodo, the kata "Hissage" is done with a short sword in Shinto Muso-ryu though longsword in Seitei.

[Kensh1D]

I study Mugai ryu, so Ive been exposed to the tanjo side only so far. I will be starting shindo muso ryu jodo very soon!! I cant wait.Didnt Nakayama Hakudo practice this style of jo as well?

[FredDude27]

Yup he did. He studied Shinto Muso ryu under Uchida Ryogoro if I remember correctly. Nakayama recieved a license in Jodo, though not a Menkyo, and taught Jodo to some of his students. I think this line of (incomplete SMR-Jodo survives to this day but I got no info on it.
