Shogerijutsu
(Contributor: Chris Butts - dapoet@juno.com)
Shogerijutsu deals with the concept of the dynamic martial artist.
Each student learns the basics, and from there they build on their
own foundation. Shogerijutsu combines many facets of learning
from the martial arts. Shogerijutsu takes the basic self-defense
techniques of jujutsu, karate-do, gongfu, and kick boxing, then
combines it with the philosophy of styles that represent the fundamental
approach toward self-defense and combat such as kenpo, jeet kune
do, aikijutsu, and gongfu. Shogerijutsu means "the essence in
kicking technique", but the name itself does not define the techniques
or philosophy of living that goes on within a system. The word
"kicking" can be replaced with any of a multitude of strikes.
The basics are taught at first. As the student progresses so
does their knowledge of control, joint locks, throws, combat philosophy,
ranges, kata, and body positioning. Each phase of learning focuses
on a breakup of the latter, with emphasis on implementing kata
technique into applicable use on the street. This style is ideal
for people who want to learn martial art basics. The philosophy
of this style blends well with any style whose purpose is self-defense
with focus on individualism.
