The Yawara stick was designed to make Police arrests easier, faster, more humane, and with less exertion on the part of the Officer. For the Officer who wants to do his job better and enjoy the good health and happiness to which he is entitled upon retirement.
The Yawara stick is very effective, easy to carry, easy to learn how to use, and easy to remember. It is hard, in fact, almost impossible, for anyone to wrest it from the holder's grasp. The Yawara stick is better appearing, very inconspicuous, and is not objectionable to the public, even when it is being used.
Combining the knowledge of Kyusho Jutsu (pressure points) with using the Yawara is a superb combination. It provides for better striking to the targets and far superior results as compared to using your fists. In today's times, we need to condition our hands as better weapons, whereas the Yawara stick is conditioned and will always remain conditioned.
What are the odds of walking into a Police Station with a Katana on your side, and not getting jumped by half a dozen Police Officers?
What are the odds of walking through an Airport with a Bo staff and not getting jumped by Airport Security?
And moreover, walking to work with your Bo Staff, just opens the door for ridicule. "Hey Bro! Are you going to part the coffee with that stick?" Yeah, Prophet Moses parting the Red Sea jokes.
What are the odds of walking into a Bank with Escrima sticks and not getting jumped by the Bank Security guards?
And what about Nunchucks?
We train with all of these weapons, however, the reality is, we cannot take them, ANYWHERE! With the exception of the cane/walking stick of course.
So that is where the Yawara sticks come in. These are small wooden sticks and moreover, most of these sticks are actually AcuPressure sticks. Medical devices as I demonstrate in my course.
This means you can literally walk on an Airplane with one in your pocket and will not get detected by scanners, you can walk into a Police station and not asked questions.
This is the power of disguise for the Yawara stick.
Join me in this course, as I teach you the pressure points of the body and how to effectively use them with the Yawara stick to immobilize your attacker. I will teach you how you can convert and use your pen as a Yawara stick too.
The objective of this course is to make you aware of the pressure point (Kyusho Jutsu) targets to move the odds of the fight into your favour.
Over TWO DOZEN drills and training exercises to help your understanding of using the Yawara stick with Pressure Points. AND for each of these drills, I will add Henka (variations) so there are dozens and dozens of training drills to practice with.
