These schools focused their activities on various techniques that their masters had developed over time. The Kyushin Ryu school specialised in systems of Atemi waza (striking techniques). The art was practiced by many Shogun with the aim of refining methods of attacking the exposed target areas around the armour of their opponent. Founder of the Kyushin Ryu school is Inugami Sakon-no-shokan Nagakatsu during the Eiroku period (1558-1570). Nagakatsu was a Samurai from the Hikone area within the ancient provence of Omi. Special focus on the core principles of Kyushin Ryu Jujtsu is: Atemi waza or Kyusho jutsu - striking techniques. Koppo Jutsu – Breaking or scattering human bone. Katsu waza or Kappo jutsu - methods of resuscitation and first aid. 2. Kyushin Ryu Jujitsu From Bantaran Angin to Institut Jujitsu Indonesia • • •
