Kobudo Ancient Weaponry

Kobudo: The Ancient Art of Weaponry

The Okinawan people are the most peaceful people in the world and have periods of their life that their weapons were confiscated and they relied on their empty-hand (Karate) skills to protect their lives, families and to survive.

In fact, in Okinawa, Karate and Kobudo are practiced as two separate arts. Most practitioners have to go to two different schools to fulfill their training in both. The United States Karate Academy is one of the few dojos’ that teaches both separate arts in the same location. I am not just referring to integrating weapons training into a Karate program and calling it Kobudo, but two truly separate arts taught in the traditional manner with each having their own ranking system.

Training in Weaponry, increases strength, speed and timing; develops coordination, control and agility. Kobudo also helps the practitioner to develop balance between the empty-hand arts and the weapons art. It is the ultimate training to complement Karate. Our most serious students practice both Karate and Kobudo.

Students train in the Bo(staff), Sai, Tunfa, Nunchaku and more. These weapons were everyday tools used by the Okinawan people: farmers, fishermen etc.
