空手の型をやっていて思うこと

棒術(0)/Bo-Jutsu(0)

棒術を推奨する本は多いが、棒の教本は殆ど見たことが無い。たまに見かけてもとても判り難い。
玄制流では棒術はやらなかったが、当時、玄制流のS.I先生が、恐らく百日紅だろうか、1.2mくらいの棒(枯れ枝)を道場に持って来られ、こう使うんだよと突く動作、左右から振り下ろす動作、相手を引っ掛ける動作等を見せて頂いたことがある。
当時小学生か中学生の時で、ブルースリーのヌンチャクが流行っていた時代である。S.I.先生は、空手をやっている人にはこちらの方が実用的だよ、とトンファーを持っての受け動作や突き、或いはトンファーの先端に持ち替えて、持ち手の部分で相手を引っ掛ける動作等を見せて頂いた。
S.I.先生は武器術にも興味を持っておられたようである。その影響もあって、昔から武器術には興味を持っていた。大学空手部では部室に棒が置いてあり、興味を持った。

Although many books recommend Bo-Jutsu, I have rarely seen the textbooks. Sometimes it's very hard to understand.
I didn't do Bo-Jutsu in the Genseiryu, but at that time, S.I.sensei of the Genseiryu might bring us a stick (dead branch) of about 1.2m to the dojo, probably wondering if it was a crape myrtle, and showed us to use it like this. He has shown me the actions of swinging down from the left and right, and the actions of hooking the opponent.
It was a time when Bruce Lee's Nunchaku was popular at the time when I was in elementary school or junior high school. S.I. teacher said that this is more practical for people who are doing karate, and it is a receiving operation with a tonfa, a thrust, or a change to the tip of the tonfa and an operation of hooking the opponent with the handle. He showed me.
It seems that Mr.S.I. was also interested in weaponry. Partly because of that, I have always been interested in weaponry. In the university karate club, there was a Bo(Pole or Rod) in the club room and I was interested.
