Hojojutsu, although is taught as an independent art, is part of a curriculum under the aegis of another arts, often as an advanced study in jujutsu.
Shibaru is an old japanese term for to hold, to arrest, to tie. The Shibaru art was applied in WWII, at Japanese prisoner's camp.
This video shows techniques of Te Shibaru Itsutsu no Tachi Kata .
@lloo567 Martial arts full of things that you apprently do not need. A good example: wWhy would you you need practicing a kata in karate? Why would you need a martial art at all? Please think again: martial arts are not about fighting in a "dangerous world". Do you understand the word "art" in "martial art"?

I think you completely missed the point. Some are into this becuase they enjoy traditional martial art, or just japanese culture. Not every aims at ever using it in real life.

dont miss the point, it is part of koryu, and with that being said, take it as part of the martial arts of the samurai, very good stuff

It's an art. A real art. It's a history, a tradition. Like tradition swordfighting like iaido or tea making ceremony. It's an art coming from martial arts.. Excelent one.

Generally one would expect the subject to be subdued before being captured and restrained.
Excellent video.

beautiful. but unpractical in the new world. sorry. your hojojutsu technique would have to be lightning fast. no navy seal could use that let alone s.w.a.t or national guard. but its a neat trick.

I don't see where this has a practical use. With most martial arts, I can see where they could be used in life. It's a dangerous world---any of us could be attacked at any time. But why would we need to know how to take someone prisoner?
