Tamiya-ryū (Tsumaki)
Iaijutsu is a Japanese koryū martial art founded by Tamiya Heibei Narimasa in the late 16th century. Lineages Three main lineages are usually recognized as being from Tamiya-ryū: Ko Tamiya-ryū, Kishū Tamiya-ryū and Shin Tamiya-ryū. However, while traditionally accepted as accurate, such classification may be subject to some level of criticism, since Shin Tamiya-ryū is a style on its own, founded by Wada Heisuke and both Ko Tamiya-ryū and Kishū Tamiya-ryū refer to the lineage transmitted in the Kishū domain (now Wakayama Prefecture).

He was one of the three "Great Unifiers" of Japan, along with his former lord Oda Nobunaga and fellow Oda subordinate Toyotomi Hideyoshi. The son of a minor daimyo, Ieyasu once lived as a hostage under daimyo Imagawa Yoshimoto on behalf of his father. He later succeeded as daimyo after his father's death, serving as a vassal and general of the Oda clan, and building up his strength under Oda Nobunaga. After Oda Nobunaga's death, Ieyasu was briefly a rival of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, before declaring his allegiance and fighting on his behalf. Under Toyotomi, Ieyasu was relocated to the Kanto plains in eastern Japan, away from the Toyotomi power base in Osaka. He built his castle in the fishing village of Edo (now Tokyo).

Musō Shinden-ryū
is a style of sword-drawing art (''iaido'') founded by Nakayama Hakudō (中山博道) in 1932. Nakayama Hakudō studied under Hosokawa Yoshimasa, a master of the ''Shimomura'' branch (下村派) of Hasegawa Eishin-ryū, and Morimoto Tokumi, a fellow student of Ōe Masaji of the ''Tanimura'' branch (谷村派). The name Musō Shinden-ryū most likely comes from the name given to the ''Shimomura'' branch by Hosokawa, Musō Shinden Eishin-ryū (無雙神傳英信流). Particularities The ''kata'' from Musō Shinden-ryū have a number of differences from the ''kata'' of its sister art, Musō Jikiden Eishin-ryū. Among the most visible are the manner in which the ''furikaburi'' (raising the sword overhead, sometimes called ''furikamuri'') and the ''nōtō'' (sheathing) are done. Both arts also differ from many other ''iaijutsu'' schools in that the ''kiai'' is performed silently, without ''hassei'' (shouting).

Japanese Martial Art
Japanese martial arts refers to the variety of martial arts native to the country of Japan. At least three Japanese terms (''budō'', ''bujutsu'', and ''bugei'') are used interchangeably with the English phrase Japanese martial arts. The usage of the term ''budō'' (武道) to mean martial arts is a modern one: historically the term meant a way of life encompassing physical, spiritual and moral dimensions with a focus on self-improvement, fulfillment or personal growth. The terms ''bujutsu'' (武術) and ''bugei'' (武芸) have different meanings from ''budō'', at least historically speaking. ''Bujutsu'' refers specifically to the practical application of martial tactics and techniques in actual combat. ''Bugei'' refers to the adaptation or refinement of those tactics and techniques to facilitate systematic instruction and dissemination within a formal learning environment. History The historical origin of Japanese martial arts can be found in the warrior tradit ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
