Ancient bōjutsu, bō-odori, bō-furi, or village bō from Okinawa received much less attention than its famous sister discipline of kobudō. However, to really understand Okinawan martial arts in general, these old traditions are a mirror of the past we must not ignore. Representing a captivating realm of Okinawan culture, the ancient art of the bō takes center stage in a dazzling array of performances. From the graceful finesse of bōjutsu to the rhythmic energy of lion dance bō, the island proudly boasts a rich tapestry of traditions. Within the fabric of these performances lies a hidden world—the realm of “The Last Secrets of Okinawan Martial Arts with Weaponry.”
BTW, I began the study of Okinawan Bo-odori thirteen years ago, with the first results published here. Good things take time.
