The study of Ryukyu Kobudo encompasses a specialized array of traditional Okinawan weapons. This resource focuses on the primary implements - the Bo, Sai, Tonfa, Kama, and Nunchaku - while providing historical context for several lesser-known auxiliary weapons used in the Ryukyuan systems.
These weapons are linked in their usage and action, naturally complementing corresponding open-hand techniques. It is important to understand these links, as this allows for progression and a continual enhancement of the understanding of their usage and deployment.
Within this system, you can learn about the history of each weapon, their specific strengths and weaknesses, and their tactical usage within the Ryukyu Kobudo system.
