Hi, what style of Bujutsu is this? ( if there are different styles ) im new to Bujutsu but some i see wich are more self defence and traditional and then others like this i see wich is more fighting. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XjgvPKMxSvQ"]YouTube - Bujutsu Tournament[/ame] Thanks
It is a misnomer. A modern art which uses the term bujutsu incorrectly. The first clip looks more like taikwondo. Bujutsu is the japanese term for ancient warrior arts before they became budo modern interpretation of the arts. regards koyo
I know nothing about Bujutsu but can tell that isn't Koryu! Seems like someone has heard the term and thought "Oooooh, that sounds like a good name for my style!" :bang:
Thanks, so Bujutsu is the more traditional/ ancient? art where as Budo is the more modern version of the traditional art. Like in the video? Thanks
Not really, Koryu Bujutsu are older warrior arts with lineages, Budo means warrior way or there abouts From Fighting Arts .com The word "budo" is the translation of characters used in the Japanese language (originally adopted from Chinese). "Bu" means military, or related to the military, or martial. "Do" means path, way or method. Budo thus refers to post-1600 generations of Japanese fighting systems based on former arts, but which emphasize "do" -- personal, ethical and spiritual development as the ultimate goal of training. just find a style you like, try a few. Be happy in your training.
Not quite. Think of it this way Kenjutsu aikijutsu jujutsu became kendo aikido and judo. They are Japanese interpretations of the ancient ways the modern way placing emphasis on character developlment alongside martial effectiveness wheras the jutsu were predominatly about MARTIAL effectiveness over all else. The term implies unarmed combat ..combat with sword spear naginata archery..a great number of modes of combat. So budo are Japanese arts not a western modern derivative.In my view you should not use a Japanese term for an art so heavily influenced by western preference. Simply using the term martial arts would have sufficed. regards koyo regards koyo
Ok thanks for the replys, seen as though everyone who posted disagrees that it's not Bujutsu does anyone know what sort of style it is / looks like? I been looking at the proper Bujutsu videos so i now more of what Bujutsu is now. Thanks
I searched for bujutsu at youtube and more of what posted above showed up included ninjutsu. So to be sure that what you saw more of is bujutsu I want to post some videos for you.
