Ten-jinshi-Kyu-jitsu.  The Art of Striking consists of 100,000 ways of striking.  Each blow more fatal than the other one.  Each move represents not just striking.  It represents the theory of controlling the opponent in every direction.  The famous monasteries and monks arriving and teaching Buddhism.  Learning the Budo or the do, would be the way to enlightenment.  To understand the principle of oneself became the way of the Bushi warrior...   The monks brought the art, which is today known as Tai Chi or Chi Kung, which introduced Dim-mak.   By improving rhythmic movements and breathing, circulatory of the human physiology and body autonomy, they were able to cultivate trans cystic energy called Kung or Chi, in Japanese Ki.  Water training was implemented to develop lower body and higher body extremity to be able to cultivate the chi, these moves must be synched with the mind, learn more about the Yin and the Yang; meaning the hard and soft, learning that when you get soft you are able to cultivate more of your trans cystic energy with locks an throws and with greater at ease.   Your body becomes a rock and you learn not to be uprooted off your stance.   The Samurai masters began to cultivate learn fluidity moves with their katana or sword, Ko-chi Sageo Katana.   Atemi In absence of their sword or weapon, the move had to be fluid in motion in order for its effectiveness to be more powerful.  Not just learning how to dance, but learning how to facilitate in an upward and downward motion and circular motion as well.  Even with the strike of the sword, you go to the left and right and down and up and the beauty of it in a circular parry motion.  Not only today called the escrima stick, the cobra or the baton used like a piston in a rapid motion of an Atemi strike.  The founding of Karate, empty-hand, do, and many arts that came on hundreds of years later.  Atemi was lost.  Since Atemi was valued as a treasure of the masters, and a handful of katakana as, and scrolls, and were destroyed during 1941 and 1945--in that time period during the Nagasaki and Hiroshima.  Most of the archives and lessons and books were destroyed.  Only a handful of masters knew the completion of Atemi.  Masters like Morehei Ueshiba, Gogen Yamaguchi, Gichin Funakoshi, Sokaku Takeda, Tatsu Tanaka, and Jigoro Kano, also incorporated Atemi into their systems; but they were limited to the art of striking.  In the early 30s and 40s to the 70s and to the 90s, the late Grandmaster Yamamoto knew the complete art of Atemi. Today the last Non-Japanese and American man to know the complete art of Atemi in the New Millennium years is Soke Grandmaster Irving Soto, 10th Degree Black Belt, who is the founder of the present system of jujitsu Atemi waza.   Martial arts are a world of new innovations and new ideas each day.  It complements the yin and the yang.  The two interlocking forces interlocking the universe.  You must understand the do--which is the way of discipline and the way of life.  Without the harmony of Budo--you have no spirit.  So when you practicing martial arts you must understand each theory precisely--what it represents and the nature behind it to become the body of the rock and to have the spirit of an eagle. The enlightenment must be attained within.  "Do" complements the mind, the heart, the soul, the spirit, and the body.  With harmony and coordination represents the do.   Do the embodiment of life.  One of the most sophisticated art forms, the Atemi.  Known in Chinese as Dim-mak.  Or in American, the intercepting Stop Fist, or the way to kill.

 

Soke Grandmaster Soto As I grew up in 1956 when I was a young boy.

 I remember one of my teachers in jujitsu Tashioshi explaining to me about the element earth, wind, fire, water, void, in Enlightenment of martial arts, At that time it didn't make sense to me, I did not understand As a young boy but in time, I understood water you move with fluidities, with wind you move with the shadow, and void, you alternate all three signs and it is very unstoppable break your movement.

Today I know that Martial arts are of the essence, as I fluctuated back and forth from Brooklyn to Chinatown from school through my early years of training in Jujitsu and Kung Fu. When I was a young boy growing up in Brownville Brooklyn, I remember I watched through the park fence as a little boy, I must have been 10 years old and I Watching a group of people —fighting inside the parks in Brownville   

 See you have to understand how I grew up in a neighborhood with Italians on one corner and mulattos or the Afro-American on the other side, and the Jewish community on the other side.  It was a pretty tough neighborhood, Brownsville, East New York.  I often wondered if I could defend myself from the guys in the Park one day.  

They were fearless fighters.  One had a razorblade in his mouth and the other one had a machete.  And the other one had a barber's razor and sticks which appeared to be bats at that time, and knives.  And to me it appear to be a play fight, but it was a really a fight.  One would kick, one would punch, one would grapple, one would try to block the knife with his coat, one would take the impact of the stick with his elbow, and blood was everywhere.  

That was very scary for me.  Growing up in an environment so brutal, in other words savage violent neighborhood that taught you to be amen from an early age, you see you learned not to fear much. I would practice daily with my martial arts science.

 I wanted to be real good in martial arts and this is my true life story--of a true martial arts expert.  As a foot note you see basic martial arts there is nothing wrong with it.  But in the street I grew up at, where you had the blast of a gun, and razor sharp instruments--no matter how much martial art you knew, you were playing with your life or fire.  Your technique had to be raw, more different, and more unique of 'Cause these were the true essence of survival in the jungle of in a neighborhood call Brownsville, East New York.  

I grew up in a good family.  My mother was very poor.  But yet my heritage was very rich. I continued to strengthen my martial arts skills in Kung Fu and Jujitsu for many years, Martial Arts to me was a way of life since a little boy, I just didn't want to be another karateka
