DAKENTAIJUTSU (yoroi kumi uchi)

As I mentioned in The History of the Kukishin Ry Urabe Sukumi Kanesada, 11th Ske of the Kishin Tosui Ry, learned Kenpo from Sonjin-Shi Yoshihide, who had come to Japan from China during the years 1345-1349, and added it to the Tosui Ry as Dakentaijutsu. Then in 1349 Izumo no Kanja Yoshiteru gave it the name Kishin Dakentaijutsu. Now, before making an explanation of Kukishin Ry Dakentaijutsu I will introduce the Gokui no Uta (Poems of the Secret Principles) found in the Kukishin Ry densho. Tsukikage no terasanu sato wa nakeredomo nagamuru hito no kokoro ni zo sumu There is no village upon which the moonlight does not fall, but in the mind of he who looks there is Izumo no Kanja Yoshiteru (The moons light shines fairly upon everything. If you feel that it is not shining on your place that is a mistake. It is because the mind of the one who is looking is clouded.) Omizu no saki ni nagaruru tochi gara mo mi o sutete koso ukamu se mo are Even the soil washed away in front of a flood, by giving itself up, will float in any torrent Hozen (Even dirt washed away by a flood will naturally float to the waters surface. This means that even if you are in a desparate situation, if your mood is that of Sutemi, or throwing yourself away, you can find a way to win.) Mi no sonae yu o arawasu bu no naka ni shin no gokui wa kokoro narikeru Within all the defenses the body uses to show courage, the true secret is the mind. Okuni Kihei Shigenobu (The kamae of the body seem to express ones strength but true strength is in the heart.) Bu no hi to wa kataki no chikara o riyo shite yanagi ni kaze no kokoro tomokana Is not the secret or power making use of the enemys strength, the heart of a willow in the wind? Kuhara Kotaro Nobuyoshi (What is important in the martial way is leaving out any excess power and using an opponents strength, doing exactly as the branches of a willow tree do when blown by the wind, swaying with no tension.) Whichever of the above phrases you read, it is saying that being prepared in the mind is important in bud. Please work on creating a composed, confident state of mind. To do so, correct training (this means concentrating on thinking about the meaning of a technique. I dont think you will get good results by thinking unnecessary thoughts) is very important. Quote from Manaka Unsui

KIHON KAMAE GATA (Basic Posture Forms)

GOH NO KAMAE (Five Way Postures)

HIRA NO KAMAE (Flat Posture)

The feet are shoulder width apart. Both hands are in fudoken, palms facing the body on the inside near the hips. With both hands open and held at the hips, your eyes stare into the opponents eyes. Quote from Manaka Unsui

HIRA ICHIMONJI NO KAMAE (Flat Number One Posture)

The body is the same as Hira No Kamae. The arms are outstretched to the side of the body. The hands are in shikanken so that the fingers will not get cut off. Also, it is almost impossible to make a fudoken when wearing armor. With both hands open and spread out to the right and left, your eyes stare into the opponents eyes. Quote from Manaka Unsui

SEIGAN NO KAMAE (Correct Eye Posture)

The body is sideways to uke. The left hand is in shikanken and points at (U) eyes, the right hand in shikanken resting on the heart. With the body turned to the right side, lightly clench your right fist and put it on your hip, and put your left hand in shuto at the opponents eyes. Quote from Manaka Unsui

KATATE HICH NO KAMAE (Single Crane Posture)

Same as Seigan No Kamae. The left foot is back near the right foot. With the body turned to the left side, lightly clench your right fist and point it at the opponents chest and keep your lightly clenched left fist against your left chest. Your eyes stare at the opponents eyes. Quote from Manaka Unsui

KSEI NO KAMAE (Offensive Posture)

The left hand is shikanken above the eyes. The right hand is by the heart in shikanken. With the left hand lightly clenched and above your own head, lightly clench the right fist and put it against your chest, pull your right foot back and lower your hips. Your eyes stare into the eyes of the opponent. Quote from Manaka Unsui

SHODEN NO KATA (Initial Transmission Forms)

The kata of the Shoden (beginning scroll) are training in intense, forceful techniques to demolish an opponent with aggressive attacks; especially in throwing opponents by pulling with the legs. Thus, early in training it cannot be helped if the techniques require strength to perform. Quote from Manaka Unsui

SEION (Living Sound/Life Sound)

(U) holds (T) in kumi uchi Grab (U) left collar with the right hand, right collar with the left hand. The right thumb presses into nerve in the side of (U) neck. As you do this, shift your left foot to the left, pulling (U) right arm straight, and making your own right arm straight. Place (kick) the right foot against (U) right knee (or hip). Pressing the nerves in (U) neck, pushing out the foot, and turning counter-clockwise, throw (U) onto back with osoto gake.

HENKA
Instead of placing your foot on the (U) hip, place it behind (U) right leg and throw. HENKA (YOROI) Face each other in Hira Ichimonji No Kamae, with the right hand grabbing the shoulder strap, and the left hand either the elbow, or the protective plate on the back of the hand. The left hand lets go, comes in underneath and strikes to the tendons on the inside of (U) wrist, to knock it clear (this is a short movement). Take hold of the inside of (U) sleeve by the elbow, then the right foot is placed behind the back of (U) right foot with the calves touching. (U) is the forced backward. Note: Jack explains that you should move to the outside and around the opponent to a point where he is completely off balance, then step in towards the opponent so he falls into the kukan. Note: Hold the strap high on the shoulder. As the right foot is placed on the ground, (U) balance is pushed backwards. The left foot can come in to be close or on to (U) right foot. As you grab in kumi uchi, the body weight sinks a little. The meaning of the technique is to cause [the opponent] to make a sound. While attacking the opponents neck with boshiken or shishinken (the fingertips), you throw him using osoto gake. It is important to sufficiently unbalance the opponent using boshiken. Quote from Manaka Unsui Firmly grasp the opponents grabbing hand with your left hand and thrust with the right. This is an important principle for kumi uchi. Then fold the opponents knee. Fold the knee and take down. Having brought him down, apply a hold to his joints with the body. 9

Just as it is considered important to walk rhythmically, when carrying heavy objects the armored warrior walks keeping a rhythm. Having come to grips with the attacker, thrust in with the shitoken through the gaps in the opponents armor. Then press in. In the previous technique the knee was kicked out but here, because of the armor plating, there are cases where a kick will not work. Thus one positions ones left leg so as to control the opponents joints and then take him down. The opponent has fallen. At this time, you can draw the sword and thrust it in under the helmet without aiming for any particular target. Then as you turn the sword you can cut the neck. This is important; a takedown. Here, this armor breakfall is important. Quote from Hatsumi Senseis video

10

SUI YOKU (Water Wing)

The technique gets its name from its use of the arms in a way resembling the large movement of a bird flapping its wings. Grabbing the opponents arms and unbalancing his body, you throw him with the body power created by pulling the left leg back. Quote from Manaka Unsui

Kick (U) left leg with your right foot to sai. Grab (U) neck. Finish with uchi mata. The meaning of the technique is to make the opponents body roll over like a water wheel. Kicking upwards into the uchi mata (inner thigh), you finish by spinning the opponents legs into the air. You need to practice sufficiently at using both arms and both legs. Quote from Manaka Unsui

12

KUBI WA (Collar)

(U) right jodan tsuki From Seigan, left jodan uke. (U) left keri Grab (U) wrist, right gedan uke. Right boshiken from the inside to (U) ryumon.

The use of the four fingers of your right hand is very important. How and which direction to pull onto the left foot and also the timing for using the right hand also become important. Quote from Manaka Unsui

13

HSETSU (Avalanche)

Right hand joins the left; pull (U) down on the right side to his back. Note: Jack explains that after you spin behind and elbow (U) butsumetsu, put (U) arm into gyaku zeoi, then lift (U) arm straight up, then behind (folding backward at the elbow, looks like (U) is scratching his back), then pull straight down to the ground. HENKA Same start. Grab (U) left wrist with the right hand after the strike to nasai. Lift the wrist youre holding and grab (U) same arm with your left hand, swinging it out to the right to stop the jodan tsuki. Switch hands on (U) wrist, apply a choke with the right hand. Turn your body so that you can start a seoi nage. (U) pulls away. Go under, throw with ippon seoi nage. Note (yoroi): When (U) is down, the cresting or the wings of the helmet can be held to restrain him, and restrict his movement. The name of the technique means to throw the opponent all in one instant like an avalanche. The way you enter with your body when you throw with ippon zeoi nage while breaking the elbow is am important technique. Quote from Manaka Unsui When grappling in armor if you fall down, its the end. Thus, so as absolutely not to fall down, there is the armor stepping. Step firmly, one by one precisely fixing the foothold. Then establishing in your mind the presence of the armor sleeves and the like, carefully take the proper distance. Gyaku are also applied while taking the proper distance. Having applied the gyaku, send the opponent flying, more so than putting the hold in to the limit. Counter the opponents fists by hitting them upward as much as possible. Then strike in through the gaps in his armor. When you grab the opponent you may grab any place. Then move to push down the opponent. When the opponent dislodges your hand, grab hold again. Then move to 14

take him into a back throw. If the back throw does not work, move your body to pull the opponent down. You can in essence just pull him down. Then, using the kabuto wari (helmet breaker), break the attackers helmet. Quote from Hatsumi Senseis video

This makes (U) bend forward and step a little with the left foot. Right keri (U) groin. Drop to the left knee and pull (U) down to the ground. This technique is so named because the opponents body flies up toward heaven and then falls flat on the ground. Receiving with jmonji (crossed arms), you lock the wrist and elbow, kick upward and throw by sitting down. What is important is the principle of receiving in jmonji. Quote from Manaka Unsui That was very good stepping. It contains within it a kiai. It can also be called victorious stepping. It is a most important type of footwork for grappling in armor. Then finally, take the opponents arm in jmonji. Take the arm making a cross. Then pull down. A kick also goes in here. Then finish the technique. Cross hold. Holding firmly so that the opponent cannot escape, pull down while taking the opponents elbow. While pulling down, a joint reversal on the wrist and elbow is applied throughout. In olden times, the blocking method of yoroi kumi uchi was indeed known as dakentaijutsu (hitting fist-body art). Strike upward strongly, destroying the opponents blows. This is to disarrange the opponents body, to make his center of gravity unstable. Then block in jmonji, and kick in. From there, proceed to jerk the opponent down. Then drawing the yoroi dshi (armor penetrating dagger), stab into the opponents vital point. Then cut the carotid artery. Quote from Hatsumi Senseis video.

When the elbow is bent the forearm is vertical. Turn under (U) arm, throw with seoi nage. Note: The bent arm is the same angle as for musha dori or oni kudaki.

With the right hand grab (U) butsumetsu, bring (U) to his toes, and throw in the same way as doing omote gyaku. The meaning of the technique is to be supple like branches of a willow tree blown by the wind.

27

In this technique you knock the opponent down with ashi sabaki (footwork). It is important to use close distancing. Quote from Manaka Unsui First, take the opponents attacking arms in kumi uchi gata. From there, bringing your right hand to the opponents right hand, move with the body, take the opponents wrist, elbow and shoulder. Upset the center of balance of the opponents body. Then, with all your spirit, strike the opponent down. This is an important point. Against the opponents stab with the yoroi dshi, block and go into a wrist gyaku.
