Japan’s Ryukyu archipelago was the birthplace of two methods of self-defense now practiced worldwide: Okinawan Karate and Ryukyu Kobujutsu, known as Okinawan Kobudo. Kobudo is the study of weapons adapted from the tools of farming and fishing. Okinawan Kobudo reveals, for the first time through print and photographs, the rich history and techniques of this most prestigious martial art known worldwide as Matayoshi. Andrea Guarelli traces the history of Matayoshi Kobudo, explores the background of each weapon, and demonstrates the form and technique of practice through rare photos, many of which the author took while a student of Shinpo Matayoshi Sensei (1921–1997). Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Sports Publishing imprint, is proud to publish a broad range of books for readers interested in sports—books about baseball, pro football, college football, pro and college basketball, hockey, or soccer, we have a book about your sport or your team.

O Kobu-Do é considerado por alguns estudiosos como o precursor do caratê, e vários estilos desta arte incluem algum grau de treinamento de Kobu-Do, como parte de seu currículo. Similarmente, não é incomum ver um chute ou outro golpe “de mãos limpas” em um kata de Kobu-Do. Em alguns estilos, as técnicas das duas artes são fortemente relacionadas, evidenciadas pelo uso de armas e de “mãos vazias” em um determinado kata, por exemplo, Kanku-dai, Kanku-sai, Gojushiho e Gojushiho-no-sai; embora estes sejam katas de Kobu-Do, não são formas tradicionais deste, mas foram desenvolvidos a partir de katas do caratê. Outros katas do Kobu-Do demonstram elementos da técnica de “mãos vazias”, mantidos das formas antigas; Soeishi No Dai, uma forma de kata de Bo, é um dos poucos tipos de autêntico kata de Kobu-Do que utiliza chutes como técnica secundária.

Time moves on, cultures change with the twists of history and secret arts are lost. To understand the essence of karate, kobudo and te is to read and digest this work. To devour the mysteries of the secret principles it records is to dwell in a former time, only then will the reader know the true meanings of what the masters passed on. This book was a classic of the 20th century and, with the passing of time, is now considered to be an historic record for the modern era; both a time capsule and an integrated tool of knowledge transmission. Also featuring contributions from the latest breed of expert researchers, this Expanded Third Edition keeps the original version alive in its entirety, while bringing the Okinawan karate world up to date, as it expands into an ever-increasing international world. Be warned though, it also answers questions that have not been asked until now and topics that could not have been discussed, while expanding on newly debatable issues. This is what the masters were really saying

Kobudo, the famous armed Okinawan fighting art that utilizes common farming implements in combat, and Te, the ancient Okinawan art of armed and unarmed combat, are two of the world's most widely practiced yet least-understood martial arts. This book studies the individual Kobudo and Te systems as they are practiced in Okinawa today and discusses their various histories and the lives of the masters who have most influenced them. Spiritualism in the Okinawan arts is also covered in detail, as the author masterfully describes the mix of Zen and native beliefs that are vital to these arts, yet a component that has been all but ignored by previous researchers. In addition, this is the first work to discuss anthropological theories on Okinawa and the development of fighting arts there from the Stone Age. This complete and wide–ranging study of Okinawan weaponry, history, and training is the ultimate guide to these important fighting arts.

This work clearly defines and catalogues the fifty historical hand-held weapons that were used in Okinawa Prefecture and the Ryukyu Islands from the dawn of its history. It show the stages of development and introduction of these weapons to the islands and how they affected the culture through the ages. The 'standard five' popular weapons of the modern era (bo, sai, tonfa, nunchaku & kama) are described in detail with many scale drawings, but surprisingly, it clearly shows the influence of bladed weapons, such as the curved sword. Firearms also made a huge contribution to Ryukyuan weapon development, so these are also introduced in their historical context. Most surprising is the contextual detail of the historic eras, such as the affects of the Satsuma Invasion of the Ryukyu Islands in 1609 & the dissolution of the monarchy in 1879. Contrary to popular myth, between these years Okinawans did not adopt farmers tools for self protection, for quite a different history is revealed herein.

While training with Master Nakamura, he charged Master Odo to bring together all his vast knowledge of kenpo karate and kobudō from his past instructors: Sensei Koho Kuba (Tomari-te), Master Shinpo Matayoshi and Sensei Mitsuo Kakazu (kobudō), Seiki Toma (kobudō), and Master Shigeru Nakamura (Naha-te & Shuri-te). In 1972, the Okinawa Kenpo Karate Renmei appointed Master Odo as president of the All Okinawa Kenpo Karate-do League. Soon after his appointment, Master Odo completed incorporating kobudō into the Okinawa kenpo karate empty-hand system as taught by Master Nakamura. Master Odo became one of the first instructors to combine a karate system with a complete weapons system. This book is an example of the organized system that Master Odo developed. Weapons presented in this text include the bó (staff), tunfá (millstone handle), sai (dagger-shaped metal truncheon), kama (sickle or hand scythe), nunchaku (flail), and nunte-bó (staff with gaff).This book contains a detail description of the Kobudō kata as taught by Master Seikichi Odo to Professor Bill Marron in the early 1970's. Each kata is based upon the first 3 instructional DVDs developed by Professor Marron and Shihan Crayton Moss. It is advised that students first learn the kata from a qualified instructor of Kobudō and use the detailed texts and DVDs to develop their expertise. This book was designed to help the Kobudōka remember the kata when they get a mental block while practicing. Each Directional Series with specific technical steps correspond directly with the detailed steps of the DVDs listed below. Our desire is each kata remain true according to Master Odo's wish, "keep the 'old ways' straight."For more information contact American Kenpo Karate and Weapons system (AKKW.net).Instructional Weapons (Kobudō) DVDs1.

It is well written and is an excellent adjunct for their demonstrations on the DVD sets. I would highly recommend it to anyone interested in the Weapon arts of Okinawa. Congratulations on an excellent publication.Professor Ken Baker (Hanshi, Judan, Midori Yama Budokai)Having been a student of Okinawa Weapons since 1978, I was very pleased to receive an advance copy of "Kobudo, the Ancient Art of Okinawa Weapons," by William Marron (10th Black, Hanshi,-Professor) and Crayton Moss (7th 'Black, Shihan). It is a book that goes into such great detail on one of my favorite styles of practice. I have personally trained under Marron Hanshi. He was an excellent practitioner, a true gentleman and a great friend. He is greatly missed. I am so pleased that his protégé Moss, Shihan has continued to keep this legacy going forward with such a fine book. The DVD's and the book will go hand in hand to further the study of Kobudo.Note: A color edition is also available.

What would you like to obtain from your research and practice of an Okinawan martial art? For an academic, it would be to obtain historical and cultural facts and details. For a practitioner, it would be to gain expertise in the combative skills. If you’re interested in both, this three-volume anthology (paperback) is assembled for your convenience to facilitate your endeavors. These volumes assemble a wealth of material originally published during the two decades when the Journal of Asian Martial Arts was in print. Hundreds of pages and photographs present the richness of Okinawan martial traditions, from the original combatives to those influenced by Chinese and mainland Japanese martial art styles. The variety of topics shown in the table of contents indicate the depth and breath in the chapters, along with the authors who are well-known for their meticulous research and practical skills in specific arts. These three volumes dive deep into the history and culture of Okinawan martial arts. You’ll find coverage of the actual artifacts—the material culture related to weaponry and training methods. Instructions from the masters details both open-hand techniques as well as with weapons. The chapters offer insights the lives of many masters over the past few centuries, giving the raison d’être for these unique fighting arts—their reason for being. Many streams of arts have contributed to the martial traditions found on the small island: Naha-te, Shuri-te, Fukien White Crane, Shorin, Goju, Motobu, Shotokan, Isshin, Kyokushin, Pwang Gai Noon, Shito, Uechi, and the list continues… Along with the various styles come the associated training methods, such as conditioning exercises with weights and creatively designed apparatus, such as the punching post (makiwara), or stone lever and stone padlockshaped weights. Some become battle-hardened by active and passive breaking of objects (tameshiwari), including wooden boards, baseball bats, rocks, and ice. The extensive use of weaponry is found in many Okinawan styles, often associated with their farming and fishing occupations. Such a blend of history and culture make the Okinawan fighting traditions a fascinating field of study. Besides being such vital sources of information, these three volumes will prove enjoyable reading and permanent at-hand reference sources in your library.
