Kamishin Ryu Aikijujutsu
Kamishinryu's teachings are jujutsu in nature and consist of a cohesive blend of Japanese based martial arts. The art emphasizes the control, joint locking, chocking, throws and fluidity of jujutsu with effective atemiwaza.
Atemiwaza requires that the student develop proper body mechanics to establish an effective delivery system. Once this foundation is developed, the student extends the body mechanics into wider spheres of principle-based application. These spheres of application require that the student learn the principles behind what makes technique work; therefore, mere emulation of physical technique will not allow the student to become an effective martial artist.

A few of this system's principles are briefly listed below...these principals are not listed in any particular order:

...rotational escape
-teaches the foundation of mechanical leveraging.

...to/from
-always draw to and proceed from...points of strength.

...duality
-keep in/yo active within everything.

...decaying power
-channeling aiki flow.
-dissipate power naturally, not abruptly.

...ebb and flow of power
-projecting/redirecting

...in/yo-no-kamae
-the dual nature of postures.

Within Japan, jujutsu is the largest traditional soft style martial art today. Jujutsu uses principles of countering an attack by using the opponent's strength against himself. Striking techniques (atemiwaza) based on pressure points, are used along with joint manipulations and throws to subdue and control an opponent. The fundamentals of jujutsu are very simple to learn and truly is a martial art for all ages. On the other hand, the advanced methods of jujutsu take years of dedicated study.
