This site is dedicated to the martial art of
Hakko
Denshin Ryu Ju Jutsu
Hakko
Denshin Ryu Ju Jutsu ("The Spirit of the Eighth Light School
of the Art of Gentleness") is a martial art specializing
in the use of wrist locks and pressure points. It is regarded
as a self-defense for refined humanitarians.
The origins of the art can be traced to 8th century Japan, where
a similar form of Ju Jutsu was being practiced among the Samurai
Warriors. This gentle art has become popular in North America
mainly through the efforts of Shihan Michael J. LaMonica, the
Head Instructor of the Eighth Light Dojo and Chief Instructor
of the Hakko Denshin Ryu Ju Jutsu Federation in North America.
Through Shihan
LaMonica's efforts and guidance, Shihan Ken Hoggart has grown
Hakko Denshin Ryu Ju Jutsu in Canada as the Canadian Representative
for the Hakko Denshin Ryu Ju Jutsu Federation.
The
mastery of Hakko Denshin Ryu requires no strength, but relaxation
and precision of technique.
