Aiki Jujitsu[Daito Ryu] Syllabus????

[Stephen_Bannan]

Just wondering if there is a syllabus written on-line somewhere for Aiki jujitsu/Daito Ryu? I can't go and see any where I live as there isn't any and am just curious about it. I study Yoshinkan Aikido and I've been told that Yoshinkan is as close as you get to aiki jujitsu/Daito Ryu without actually doing it.

Just wanting to find out what's different between the to schools. If anyone can point me in the direction of a document I will thank them very much.

Thanks.

Shoden ---------Hidden Mokuroku------- 118 Techniques.
Aiki-no-jutsu ----------------------------- 53 Techniques.
Hiden okgui------------------------------- 38 Techniques.
Goshinyo-no-te--------------------------- 84 Techniques.

add to that various weaponry techniques, other unarmed methods etc - ya have yourself a large syllabus!

:D

Not sure about online. You can get the IKKAJO syllabus if you have access to Daito-ryu Aikijujutsu Hiden Mokuroku: Ikkajo
by Kondo (http://63.90.120.212/catalog/productdetails.php?code=kondo01&PHPSESSID=22bf4da38cc07c3157bc1260d5c7f145), it's listed in the TOC (and demonstrated in the rest of the book.) The NIKAJO is on a DVD sold by Julio Toribio.

If you do a search on the Aikido Journal site, you might find some of the IKKAJO/NIKAJO techniques listed. I think someone asked the same question a year or two ago and someone else uploaded the names for IKKAJO. NIKAJO might be there, too. I think Kondo made some sort of request of Expo attendees last year involving the list.

Good luck.

Btw, you might find the names a little deceptive. They're used differently in DR than in other arts. Aikido's NIKYO, e.g., is called variously KOTEZUME, SHUTOZUME, GYAKUUDEDORI, DAKIJIME.

If you can read Japanese you can find the 118 Hiden Mokuroku at http://member.nifty.ne.jp/daito-ryu/gihou.html

Well, being as dense as a hessian bag full of spanners I am unable to read Japanese. Thanks anyway.

I think I'll just say, that there may be similarities 'tween Yoshinkan and Daito-ryu but that's all I know.

Thanks again.
