課程介紹

・如果你想學的是格鬥技，你確實會學到「格鬥」的「技術」，但這邊沒有教「格鬥賽」的「技術」，這兩者差異，必須請先理解。

・If what you want to learn is martial arts, you will indeed learn the "techniques" of "fighting." However, what is taught here is not the "techniques" for "competitive fighting matches." You need to first understand the difference between the two.

課程流程介紹：

課程的歸類分為護身術、合氣研究、柔術三大類，合氣研究指的是佐川幸義宗範所傳的一元直傳內容，柔術指的是保羅老師所整理的大東流技術、其餘包括中國武術、拳法等等都歸類在護身術體系。

柔術與護身術亦包含某些不屬於傳統大東流的基本的打擊與踢技，對於個人防衛技巧的觀點來說非常重要：如果未能習得基本攻擊技術，不可能在合理時間內發展任何自我防衛能力。

課程開始前與結束前都有簡短的開始儀式與結束儀式，是基於尊重傳統的儀式。

1. 開始：對前輩與在場的老師敬禮，彼此敬禮

2. 合氣基本體鍊：佐川宗範的獨家技術，訓練合氣的技術

3. 護身術及拳法應用：非常態，視當天練習狀況而定 

4. 柔術課程：依照每個人的進度，學習或複習自己的課程，包括基本、目錄

 5. 自由練習：最後半小時，可繼續複習課程或加強特定技術

Course Curriculum Overview

The curriculum is categorized into three primary pillars: Self-Defense, Aiki Research, and Jujutsu.

Aiki Research: Focuses on the Ichigen Chokuden (Direct Transmission) content passed down by Grandmaster Yukiyoshi Sagawa.

Jujutsu: Covers the Daito-ryu techniques organized by Master Paul.

Self-Defense: Includes various systems such as Chinese Martial Arts, Kenpo, and other integrated combat methods.

Both Jujutsu and Self-Defense incorporate fundamental striking and kicking techniques that may fall outside traditional Daito-ryu. These are considered essential from a personal defense perspective: without mastering basic offensive skills, it is impossible to develop effective self-defense capabilities within a reasonable timeframe.

Class Structure & Etiquette

Brief opening and closing ceremonies are conducted to honor martial traditions.

Opening Ceremony: Salutations to seniors, instructors, and fellow practitioners.

Aiki Fundamentals (Tairen): Practice of Grandmaster Sagawa’s exclusive methods for developing "Aiki" power.

Self-Defense & Kenpo Application: Occasional sessions held based on the specific focus or progress of the day.

Jujutsu Training: Personalized instruction where students learn new techniques or review existing ones according to their individual progress. Including Jujutsu Kihon and Aikijujutsu Mokuroku

Free Practice: The final 30 minutes are dedicated to self-guided review or intensive training on specific techniques.
