To-Shin Do Taijutsu and Weapons Demo

A demo by Mr Dale Hesketh in To-shin Do, or modern Ninjutsu. Shows some basic techniques for dealing with knife attacks when unarmed or armed with a knife, hand-to-hand or taijutsu fighting, kubitan/kubotan usage, grappling wrist locks/breaks, hanbo (3 foot staff) etc.

To-Shin Do can be learned almost anywhere in the world with Dojo being located all over America, and in many other countries too like the U.K. and even South Africa.

where do you get the sparring gloves he has and what or they called ?

[brycemaster]

@superpigforlife They are called "cobra glvoes" but there are many different styles of them available, so you might not see oen exactly the same as ours.

hey you think that watching your videos and practicing your techniques with a partner can defend myself in the street I live in a very dangerous and always with knife assault

[brycemaster]

Short answer: No.

Long answer: No, But...

You need to attend a self defence class, DVDs and books etc. are just learning aids, it's impossible to completely learn an art watching videos. You can, if you understand the basics of the art and have had instruction, but If you have no idea, and try and copy a video...it wont work. Try and find a to-shin do, bujinkan or other self-defence dojo in your area and train hard! Good luck!

Watching this demo video reminds me a lot of what I learned and was taught while training with Eclectic Karate as a teenager. And Eclectic Karate is a mixed martial art that focuses on street oriented techniques and not the sport stuff you see on UFC that unfortunately so many people think of when they think of MMA. I wish Mr. Hayes would open up a Quest Center in the Philadelphia area. I have long wished to train in his art.

@phaedres7681

Yes I agree with the MMA being a complete sport, although the principles it teaches are still helpful, as you say it is hardly built for defence.

As for training, if you join the stephen K hayes forums or search on google there may be some long distance learners there who will train with you. There is a specific section in the forums on his website dedicated to finding training partners for Long distance students. And of course there's the DVD's and downloads to help you too.

People always talk about how MMA is the best "martial art" and shit, when in fact, it's a combination of martial arts taught under rules. It's nowhere near useless, but they don't teach self defense in terms of knowing what to do when somebody has a knife or anything. I'd say ninjutsu or krav maga may be the best ones, since they are military and survival styles/systems.

IT LOOKS LIKE BUDO TAIJUTSU

[ShingenDok]

This is exactly the same as the knife techniques we do in Bujinkan, North west Bujinkan. Knife is most important.

[Jeaux20]

The only thing I still have troubl with in practice training and such even getting off videos is the mind science behind it. Something I've come to understand with To-Shin-Do is there's a lot more going on in the head than just what you see in a vid and it can be hard relaying that. The warrior mentality is something that comes partially with experience.
