This was a very successful seminar, with participants from Dōjōs in Finland & Estonia attending.

We covered the Kinketsu (禁穴 'forbidden points') of the Takagi Yoshin-ryū Jūtaijutsu (高木揚心流柔体術), Shoden Omote Gata (初伝表型) and Kotō Ryū Koppōjutsu (虎倒流骨法術) Shoden Gata (初伝型).

We examined the anatomical locations, the reason why these points were vulnerable, the physical and neurological implications of attacking them and also mechanisms of injury.

My thanks to the organiser - Erick Ellison and to everyone who help and attended the seminar.
