(kō-boo-dō),
the “way of weapons”, is the Okinawan
defensive martial art that was developed by converting everyday farming
and
fishing tools into defensive weapons. The five traditional weapons
taught in
Okinawan Kobudo are the bo, sai, kama, tonfa and nunchaku. Kobudo
training consists of
learning the history of the weapons, basic techniques such as blocks,
strikes
and grappling with the weapons, weapons katas (forms), and
weapon vs. weapon sparring
drills. Kobudo study allows students to keep the ancient martial art
alive,
while at the same time giving them confidence in being able to defend
against
an attacker with a weapon.
Open to Males and Females Ages 16 & Up Aikido - Aikido (ī-ˈkē-dō), the “way of spiritual harmony”, is a Japanese defensive martial art founded by Sensei Morihei Ueshiba (1883-1969). Aikido consists mainly of throws and joint locks and is ideal for defending against multiple attackers. Aikido is performed by blending with the motion of the attacker and redirecting the force of the attack rather than opposing it head-on. However, Aikido is not primarily a system of combat, but rather a means of self-cultivation and improvement. This is achieved by bring into harmony the techniques used to defend one’s self, concern for the well-being of the attacker, and steps to protect the attacker from injury. Aikido has no tournaments, competitions, contests, or "sparring." Instead, all aikido techniques are learned cooperatively at a pace commensurate with the abilities of each trainee. Open to Males and Females Ages 16 & Up Also: Girl Scout and Cub Scout
