In this book, the author, Jamal Measara, national trainer of the Okinawan Kobudo system in Germany and Europe, as well as a high-ranking teacher of Okinawan Karate and Kobujutsu, explains the art of traditional Kobujutsu step by step in German and English on over 200 pages with more than 400 detailed illustrations.
Understanding the philosophy of Bojutsu is a lifelong process. It takes a lot of time, requires a strong will, the ability to self-criticise, diligence, motivation, discipline and patience.
Practising bojutsu in order to earn money, become famous or simply for fun is certainly not the right way. Neither is learning or practising Kobujutsu just for self-defence.
The only right way to learn Kobujutsu is to live happily and in harmony with your fellow human beings, to discover and develop yourself and your own abilities, to develop and strengthen your own character and ultimately, of course, for self-defence.
The highest principle of Kobujutsu is not to use this art to hurt or attack others, but only to protect oneself. Self-perfection, then self-protection, which means self-control before self-defence.
An indispensable and valuable work for all friends and those interested in Asian martial arts.
