This fall has been very active for Pro Recco Jujitsu.
Last month, in fact, me and the sensei Augustine Lasaracina we went to visit the High School Nicola da Recco for a practical demonstration of the children and teachers involved (including the Professor Long that already had a background from jutsuka Orecchia and professor who has followed with interest). Apart from the initial shyness of the children, all participants have shown interest in both practical, with us trying a few techniques, and theoretical, with a series of clever questions and objections. As soon as you can, next year we will try to return to high school where the availability of the headmaster and teachers and Long Pellas, as well as the commitment of students, made us feel really welcome.
There were also interesting events that have involved Some of our members. I remember the stage of November 29 held by master Quentin Schicchi and Michael DeMaria on the application of their martial arts coming to the defense - the Bianchi method (with the master Schicchi, cn 6th Dan Jujitsu, 3rd level MGA ) and Yoseikan Budo (in which the master DeMaria has a 4th dan).
In the photo master Quentin Schicchi in the red box, and two technicians Pro Recco Judo / Jujitsu in yellow boxes: [I] Francesco Gentile (cn 2 Dan Judo, 1st level MGA) and [II] Augustine Lasaracina.
Another important event, which is on the photo above, is Regional training course was the MGA, which carried a report drawn up by Augustine Lasaracina sensei. << Sunday, December 6, 2009 was held during the annual update of the regional technical staff for MGA, the course was held in the gymnasium of Pro Recco Judo / Jiu-Jitsu under the supervision of regional and national teacher Quentin Schicchi. It was a busy day (as well as rich from the technical point of view), which saw all participants commit physically and mentally - with some differences according to age and more or less adequate physical preparation. As a personal observation, I could not help but notice the little familiar from some of the best manual to master all the basic techniques. Regardless, this year the teacher Schicchi gave everyone a chance to review and update their technical knowledge, with a 'global approach is very dynamic and very typical of the federal method. >>
Hoping to continue to work on multiple fronts and in multiple events, we thank the readers of the site and enrolled in the Pro Recco Jujitsu, and we do all our best wishes for Christmas and the beginning the new year.
I started last year to conceive the idea of \u200b\u200bmaking pictures of the rides using the Reflex, and I found discrete problems:
1. Times. Each carousel "works" with its time. These are brighter than those less enlightened, that are different from Tagada. So I had to have the opportunity and ease to change the time at will, which last year could not do without a tripod. This would not come without a tripod:
2. The comfortable. Apart from the stand did not have to worry about accidentally frame faces, something which has happened, because I will never publish those pictures because, let's face it, I refuse to do so! I may be obsessed with privacy, but do not know who those people are and I can not ask for permission. I seem ugly. Ok a distant figure of which shows a bit of face features or vague, but looks good ... shame because I had an interesting. Suggestions? Maybe I'll try to rework the picture in order to "obscure" the faces, with different versions. I hate these things really bother me ... post pictures of others with their faces without having received permission (and the boys would give me maybe, lol ... to find a new boyfriend ...)
Here the face is not good luck to see, you have to fix it ... dark picture, so far ...
Another way to solve the long time are: the ride is a trail of colored light and people become shadows in movimemento. No faces, no problems for me. But there is a risk that someone turns and stares. If you can cut cut, but sometimes "jumps" the composition ... (
3. Composition. Maybe I've developed a better "face of kyulo" but I feel slightly less uncomfortable place me in there and take pictures even with the tripod. The trick is to tell operators that present them to him and obviously it sent by mail or giving it as a download on the Internet? I would say maybe ... I hope they are coming, if it was not like I'll have to bring a CD or the address of Photobucket ...
It 'just that I started to "groped" portraits. Simply because I have not found anyone that wants to be my model (although now there is the will of waiting time and decent weather). I do not go crazy about portraits, non sono il mio genere, e personalmente non vado neanche a cercare il ritrattino patinato che può servire come foto per la patente. Credo che l'immagine di una persona debba essere espressiva di un concetto, non solo far vedere quanto ha speso bene i soldi dalla parrucchiera. Forse l'ideale sarebbe scattare foto con della musica che piaccia alla persona ed avere una posa che si conforma alla musica. Gli autoritratti vengono dopo le foto agli artisti, che si fanno gli affari loro, non hanno problemi a farsi fotografare (mentre la maggior parte delle persone che conosco balzano dietro il primo "scudo", si fanno schermo con la mano ecc... se cerchi di fargli una foto al volo urlando "sono bruttoooo/aaaaa!!!" oppure sono le classiche foto coi children and fathers and mothers who do are obviously happy but for those directly involved (not post pictures of minors !!!). The important a portrait "true" but I think it's always the concept, even at the cost of intervening heavily on the portrait with any type of development program. I hope to have soon developments on this topic ...
About tips, I found a book on a number of useful ideas to get something better than the classic family photos, which of course include dogs and cats. For cats in particular, I tried this shot (the photo was then cropped to show face) this "trick" to capture a cat without a "crush" la foto (dato che il gatto è più vicino di noi al pavimento) è bene abbassarsi (in ginocchio, contorti, sdraiati) ad altezza di gatto...
Un'alternativa che viene in mente a me è prendere il gatto (che non è un elefante) di peso e metterlo in posizione utile per lo scatto (es. su un divano, una poltrona, un tavolo). Ma ovviamente il micio in quel caso sarà teso, e la foto non verrà naturale come nel caso tocchi a noi "abbassarci" al suo livello...
Oggi ho notato una cosa abbastanza interessante sulle farfalle. Continuo a cercare di fotografarle con l'obiettivo 18 - 55 del kit della Nikon D40, il che non è esattamente il massimo the specific. Perhaps it would be best for a cell phone or even a coffee machine. fact is that I noticed that are quite sensitive in the shadow of the photographer who recklessly passing over them. So to prevent them from flying off the board not to make us go over your shadow.
The course of Pro Recco Ju -Jitsu - 2009/2010 season
New attractions this year in the course of ju jitsu and self defense. New members, men and women, those with no experience and those already well versed in other martial arts - this is a first group photo (but there were some people, so as soon as possible ... update!).
And here is another testimony of the group of ju jitsu, constantly growing! (Despite the influence, workers and more generally those who are absent): A new approach to each lesson has since been devised and adopted by Augustine (our sensei ): the result is more dynamic and fun that all, so you can make a significant aerobic assimilating to "games" that transmit fight even the basics that every good jutsuka should possess.
contacts with the initiator of the course of ju jitsu, Ignatius Olla, then have further enlivened the commitment of all the "senior" with his wish for good practice.
I hope the replacement, by posting the poster Olla course held in his hometown (Guspini in the province of Cagliari).
On arrival the new "video of the week" on our Youtube channel, new photos and articles! Good practice!
The modern world has specific characteristics that until a few decades ago were unthinkable.
Every civilization struggles to renew itself e nel contempo per mantenere le proprie radici tradizionali e culturali: in questa 'epoca dell'accesso' l'uomo può sfruttare la benedizione di una potenziale esposizione a qualsiasi tipo di conoscenza e disciplina, sebbene molto più sovente venga sopraffatto dalle lusinghe del rapido appagamento dato dal materialismo proprio del mondo occidentale; certo è soltanto che in tutte le parti del pianeta questa tendenza all'accelerazione e all'entropia ha trovato dei blocchi, delle anomalie che inducono sempre più individui a non accettare tutto il 'pacchetto' del mondo moderno, ma solo la globalizzazione più virtuosa – ed ecco nascere, ad esempio, lo Slow Food che valorizza i piccoli produttori locali così come il Commercio Equo and Solidarity.
Similarly, the traditional martial arts can be a great tool for personal growth in the hands of every individual. The course of Pro Recco Judo Ju Jitsu is an example. Ignatius Olla, a black belt in judo in his youth that the company had practiced Shotokan karate, in the '90s was a brother to the world of ju-jitsu FIJLKAM, through incessant practice and came to get a black belt in 1998. The ju-jitsu taught FIJLKAM was congenial to the multidisciplinary approach of Olla, who found a fertile ground for integrating the different approaches to combat that he had met over the years, the merger is a school of traditional Japanese that had its roots in the battlefields of the Sengoku period and the modern system of self-defense method of Bianchi led the athlete to add a ball deep, almost archaic to combat sports martial that he had known until then. Less than a year later, he had already designed a course in self-defense that would "bring the practitioner to physical and moral growth" and that functions as a stimulus for the study of all disciplines related to the sphere of martial arts. "
With humility and hard work their students faced with both the study of kata Hontai Yoshin school of what areas of the White method, adding the study of elements of judo, karate and points of pressione del kyusho-jitsu. Fu nei primi anni di insegnamento, con l'interscambio proprio dell'insegnamento moralmente retto, che maturò una propria visione del ju-jitsu. "Il ju-jitsu rappresenta la fusione e la sintesi di tutte le arti da combattimento giapponesi tradizionali, ed è un metodo di accrescimento personale fisico e intellettuale; […] la vera indole del ju-jitsu è lo spirito di adattabilità, ovvero l'antico termine con cui il ju-jitsu era conosciuto: yawara ." [Fonte: Ignazio Olla] Fra tutti fu il suo primo allievo, Agostino Lasaracina (un'altra cintura nera di judo della società), ad abbracciare più completamente la sua visione del ju-jitsu, accrescendo Olla with the technical knowledge of their experience in aikido and kickboxing. The years followed with a base of students today have become brown or black belts, and parts of new students, at the end of the year 2003-2004 but had to move Olla, and Lasaracina (meanwhile, in turn, became a black belt) accepted the responsibility to pursue the course. With a group of new students and some sempai (advanced students), the approach of Olla was still alive and operating in more than three hundred sixty degrees. In the past five years of ju-jitsu course, different situations have been touched, even with assiduous presence of the group of Pro Recco Judo in a training and refresher courses, contact con diverse discipline, sovente portate dai nuovi iscritti, è più volte servito come accrescimento per tutti. Lo studio dei punti di pressione del kyusho-jitsu e delle tecniche del Metodo Globale di Autodifesa delle forze dell'ordine è stato introdotto da Lasaracina, che all'allenamento quotidiano nel judo e nel ju jitsu ha fatto ulteriori aggiunte: il 'metodo Olla' è infatti accresciuto da un maggiore studio delle tecniche pugilistiche e un metodo di preparazione fisica derivato dalle esperienze agonistiche del sensei. "[per quanto riguarda la difesa personale] non tutti gli attacchi da cui ci si debba difendere sono riducibili a un singolo pugno privo di tecnica o a un calcio scoordinato: con la grande diffusione e la semplice popularization of the ring sports is unrealistic to assume that an attacker is able to 'double' one or more attacks. Seriously practicing ju-jitsu is the ability (and necessity) to have an honest feedback of what you study, without going down to a medieval battlefield. " And here we return to the 'virtuous globalization': that of course Pro Recco Judo ju-jitsu is not a generic, where there are 'randori or kata,' but an opportunity to compare with other people from different backgrounds martial, where the growth technique, athletic and moral incentives are hand in hand, without preconceptions. "We can train ourselves to exhaustion, we can talk theory until ad nauseam, both are good, not good either ... In the practice of ju-jitsu is crucial to have a mentality 'global'. "[Source: Augustine Lasaracina]
next Thursday, September 17, will begin courses in Ju-Jitsu for ' year 2009/2010 in the gym at Piazzale Olimpia in Recco.

This is the photo in question, because it is one on which I have tried more consciously to achieve a certain effect. Meanwhile, as I did ... to Apritiborgo / ABC Festival in Campiglia Marittima (LI)
- Partying with many lights, but I used the built-in flash in the D40. The stand I have not used, was a snap. Usually I do not like the picture with flash, but ... ->
Post Production:
- I did the black and white using the post-production internal to the camera (I had already decided, when I shot, I'd put in black and white) .
- I cut away the cables and various wires, outlets for lights and speakers and so on (the show took place in the street behind a church, not in the theater, so there were plugs and wires everywhere. Also there were people and my position was required). To do this I used Paint.NET, which allows you to copy and then paste an image exactly the size of the piece of image copied or cut.
- I used Photofiltre to give greater contrast. I have placed great emphasis on the contrasts, the image is coming a bit 'edgy but it's a wanted lamellas. Fr for this I have also used the command "range -" a Photofiltre, curire for a bit 'set (does not mean light, works on color in itself), even though I used very little, I worked more on the contrast .
In general I think the black and white is well suited for portraits, which is posing on a pose, as in the case of this shot.
We must say that I did not use any telephoto lens, I used the base of the D40 which is the only one I have ... and you see ...
I still do not decide to buy a tripod and / or other objective to D40. Basically I want to understand well what can I do about it. The last exercise worthy of note I did the night of St. John on June 22, getting some clear pictures, but eventually I had to put his hands Photofiltre, in some cases than in others, such as this:
In fact, in the end I decided to do multiple versions of the same image, as well as others, to work on the "development" of the photos especially as regards brightness and sarurazione, in which shots of the genre with a light + spotlight as that of fire and at night is not easy. This example does not convince me. The image, even while reducing the "noise", I will be too grainy.
Tuesday ended ju-jitsu classes for the year 2008-2009, and now I will take a bit of rest from your blog. This year has been particularly fruitful for me, having seen the slow but steady growth technique and more people within the group, as well as the addition of new participants who can not only enrich the group. thank those who have read, commented and followed, and I promise to publish on our Youtube channel the missing "video of the week" as soon as the technology will allow me! In September!
I have been very absent, this time, but because technically I did a few actions worthy of note, aside from the fact that I'm starting to write my photo (credited with name or nick) to other sites, and recently I asked even a magazine. Obviously I'm very happy! I've also prepared something for a contest, and there you will see a bit '... New
worthy, however, are these:
- I started using Photofiltre seriously, I had already reported as an excellent free program to develop and edit photos. Apart from the functions more "playful" as the color sepia, black and white, the chance to cut - out ... etc. I must say that I am excellent its own functions to "develop" digital photo: perm, ette to correct the brightness, contrast (with results that I really like), color saturation and color gamut in its entirety. In short, I still recommend this program, even if for "scrap" the pictures I always prefer Paint.NET, also free, which is more comfortable (if you copy a selection gives you, when you create a new file, the size of the selection you copied ).
- I have tested a new way to "grab" the butterflies, which also works with insects, lizards and other self-propelled. Rather than go over and shoot me shooting approach, ie do different shots in sequence and then keep the best or the most close-up (best if they are both the same!). Actually I've experienced before on lizards, which are much more clever and escape before the butterflies, but it works really well and I managed to take pictures with pretty good detail with a goal from 18 to 55 ...
Oggi cominciamo a selezionare le strutture che offrono appartamenti nell'isola di Ibiza ,sono tante ma per il turista Italiano il fattore principale che determina la scelta o meno di un'appartamento è in primo luogo la posizione, che deve essere vicino alla discoteca preferita e alla spiaggia.Gli appartamenti nostro avviso hanno una posizione strategica per la sua vicinanza al Bora Bora beach e allo Space ma anche per la privacy dei suoi appartamenti.Gli appartamenti sono a partire da 60 Euro al giorno per due persone e per gli spostamenti si può andare a piedi ovunque.Il ristorante del Regina offers a unique environment with its pergola and the bar and create an environment inside the supermarket square mediterrranea.La pool is large gazebo decorated with various exotic drinks to pass the time with friends.
Mazinga, Mushin and other oddities Japanese, "but 'this stuff works?"
*** SPOILER note: for those unwilling to see the outcome of UFC 98 event a meeting on May 23, 2009, the reading of this article is not recommended. ***
I realize that those who do not know for certain terms and concepts borrowed from Buddhism, martial finds itself faced with a big question mark on his face when you read my rants on "concentrated minds", the "no ego, no mind" or the strange theories that unite the martial arts practice to the diverse folk and religious practices - such as the traditional Noh theater, to name one in all. Especially those who know martial arts only in their competitive aspect or because of their more practical demonstrations and / or violent, he will think that all these crazy antics holistic-have little or nothing to do with two (or more) people who want to "slay" the end of the day are the most timing projection, the hardest hit or articulate the most effective lever to end the game in a plethora of technical, physical and often "bloodlust". In contrast, those who have experience in the most theoretical of the martial arts, or those more oriented toward tradition, philosophy or self-defense, consider overvalued combat sports, because no "secret strikes", ancestral techniques and esoteric practices, or holistic. Unfortunately, very often if not always, both types of martial (the agonist by meeting ", and" theoretical by dojo ") have no direct experience in the" opposite ".
As often happens, however, there is also a third way. But first things first. The recent outbreak and spread of mixed martial arts (MMA) can help to clarify this concept. Mixed martial arts (with variations from promotion to promotion) allow almost any type of stroke, projection, lever and strangulation, with grueling rounds of five minutes to full contact. The list of prohibitions is very small , and include bites, blows to the eyes, genitals, throat or neck; levers fingers, heads, and little else. In such a competitive context, the original purpose of determining what was "art most effective martial "was wrecked almost immediately, giving rise to larger cross-training: today, all samples (and almost all practitioners of MMA) specialize in at least three distinct areas - striking (boxing, kickboxing), grappling (wrestling, judo), and ground fighting (BJJ, sambo). The first year in which the sport spread to show that martial arts and the most spectacular features were vulnerable to the scientific and western boxing particularly struggle to practice "secure" full contact by keeping quiet or little developed techniques applicable "lethal" (or even quelle tecniche adatte alla difesa personale ma non a uno scontro fra professionisti), ha infatti mostrato la propria efficacia in questo contesto. Taekwondo, jeet kune do, kuk sool won, kung fu, lua, karate, ninjutsu... tanto nel principale circuito mondiale, l'UFC, quanto in quelli minori, i praticanti di queste discipline furono annientati in massa, spesso da lottatori che, con forza e "ignoranza", li trascinavano al suolo per poi guadagnare la vittoria tempestandoli di pugni e gomitate. La fusione di muay thai, lotta libera e brazilian jiu jitsu si rivelò il "pacchetto" più efficace di competenze da acquisire, e queste si diffusero dai tardi anni '90 fino a oggi come le prevalenti discipline da studiare per avere successo Championship UFC and MMA in general ... ... until yesterday.
Last night in fact, during the event "UFC 98" held at the MGM Grand Garden Arena, Lyoto Machida, a master of karate (and expert on sumo wrestling, brazilian jiu jitsu fight and catch) of Japan-Brazilian origin, won the UFC world title of light heavyweight division, destroying two rounds in the previously undefeated Rashad Evans - imposing their own movements and rhythms in a way that reminded me of the kizeme , the famous "offensive Mental energy" of kendo. His style is considered "unorthodox" by the designers of MMA, when in fact it is mainly based on karate brought to Brazil by Lyoto's father, Yoshizato, the unique approach to Shotokan Karate of Yoshizato was designed to allow him to play against people taller and heavier than he, and therefore was based sull'elusività. The new champion has a good record of 15 perfect matches with victories over many top athletes in the world during his professional career, in a similar environment is one of the only world champions of the UFC promotion it's all very hard 'now undefeated, and even more impressive, seemingly untouchable.
In the video below you can listen to Lyoto speaking of Mushin, meditation, and his personal approach to the meetings.
Part 1 of UFC 98 Countdown
Part two of UFC 98 Countdown
Land of the Rising Sun has flooded with theories and images stronger and more strange that we westerners could imagine during the last century: the hara-kiri ki, kiai from Mazinger Z, the "immovable mind" the most mysterious Shinto rituals ... ... But finally, someone brought in a sphere is pragmatism often seen as "esoteric", that Eastern mysticism on a bloody scene of scientific and scientifically measurable effectiveness. doing so, the "Dragon" showed that the fascinating theories of traditional martial arts can play a fundamental role in violent and exhausting races, if they are sincere approach and a spirit of sacrifice, hard as steel. One time there was talk of the effectiveness of both wrestling and boxing than erratic conclusion which many martial artists "theoretical." Today I find it equally plausible unite the strange "racing zen" Lyoto Machida's performance as "scientific" by Muhammed Ali as the "adamantine wisdom of Suzuki Shosan.
note translation: soon as possible, I'll add comments as translations of important parts of the two videos here above.
Hello everyone! considering the sad circumstances in which my poor often pay judogi, I decided to offer a video that explains one of the correct techniques for bending and "manage".
There are dozens of similar videos on youtube, you look well and evaluated.
Another thought that I was born spontaneously about the rulings, I studied Japanese for a year, and I'm recovering from a self-taught. Are not yet at the level of being able to hold a conversation (or tantomento to read or write something!), But a minimum basis allows me to shudder once in a while hearing convinced the wrong Italianization Japanese. A all regards JUDOGI . In Japanese the "J" is pronounced like a "G" soft Italian (as in "jacket"), and so far all seem to agree, the "G" but is pronounced like a "G" Italian hard, or " GH "(as in" snatch "). Therefore, you should pronounce JUDOGI [ giudòghi ]. further clarification. Although not as conceptually wrong "KIMONO" - which simply means "habit", and refers to traditional Japanese clothing in general - the term JUDOGI is only suitable for the practice of ... (Guess ...) judo! Volendo riferirsi all'uniforme da arti marziali giapponesi (esclusa l'hakama), è più corretto parlare di KEIKOGI [ cheicoghi ] o DOGI [ doghi ], ovvero "abito da pratica" / "abito da allenamento"; internazionalmente, ma non in Giappone, è anche accettata l'abbreviazione GI [ ghi ]...
... e così via. Come il GYAKU no Kata, chiamato un pò ovunque [giacu] piuttosto che con la corretta pronuncia [ ghiacu ], e decine di altri esempi. Anche altri approcci funzionano: ormai i miei vicini di casa conoscono il mio DOGI come "casacca da judo"! Molto meno ortodosso, molto più pratico.

Il "Tengu-Geijutsu-Ron" è un bellissimo trattato di Confucianesimo e Buddhismo Zen (... e un pò di arte della spada), il cui titolo è stato secondo me tradotto (in tedesco prima e conseguentemente in italiano) in maniera orrenda: "Lo Zen nell'arte del tirare di spada".
Edito in Italia da Feltrinelli, si basa su una traduzione dal giapponese del teutonico Reinhard Kammerer; come spesso capita, soprattutto per un settore di nicchia quanto questo, nel panorama internazionale è facile trovare copie annotate, presentate o edite in maniera più professionale, completa o semplicemente alternativa. Questo è uno di quei casi, "benedetto" nella sua incarnazione statunitense dalla cura di William Scott Wilson. This connoisseur of Japanese culture has dealt with translating and writing the English version of several milestones in the philosophical and martial tradition of Japan, in marvelous texts published by Kodansha International; memory of the many titles he brought to the Western world 's Hagakure, The Book of Five Rings and Yojokun. There are many differences with the version of Kammerer, starting with the title: "The Demon's Sermon on the Martial Arts". What seems important is not the choice of words, but that all of the text focuses on these "demons", that the mythological Tengu ...
Similarly, Kodansha International version adds to the entire text of "Neko no Myojutsu" ovvero "La misteriosa tecnica del gatto", assente nella versione italiana; questo breve racconto è pregno delle tematiche che ricorrono anche nel "Sermone del Demone". Per chi fosse interessato a leggere il testo in italiano da me tradotto, è possibile contattarmi con una mail (jj-recco@hotmail.it).

signal to all the fans and athletes a prestigious international stage of judo, for the days of May 1-2-3, in the locality Druento (TO).
The internship will be carried out under the technical direction of Pino Maddaloni (Sydney Olympic gold 2000), and is a "preview" of the third edition of the summer internship in Marina di Massa.
For more information refer to the site Judo Kimochi , and the following numbers:
public on our Youtube channel well two (!) video of the week, one for the past (mea culpa) and one for the present. Both are techniques
ne-waza (ground fighting), which ultimately are treating a little more.
Since I published two video, I greet you with two photos of Augustine and the stage of the master Luca Schicchi and Sciutto ( two teachers ...) to Sunday, March 8.
I particularly like the second picture, the "visual inspection" of bulls to the uke now in military service.
For our reader Oyamas88 applicant, I think this is a good example of zanshin ; atypical, but always zanshin .
Valid "suggestions" for the martial artist can be found almost everywhere.
In particular the essays presented Japanese food for thought very varied and interesting.
A valuable source of concepts of Zen Buddhism that can be applied verbatim to the arts martial for me recently been the Fushikaden - Treaty on the Noh theater written by the actor and writer Motokiyo Zeami (c. 1363 - c. 1443), established by authoritative sources as "the most significant figure in the history of No ".
Representation " Okina hono " piece that combines a Shinto ritual dances.
The Noh drama is a form of Japanese music popular since the fourteenth century, with roots that sink in as much theater folk, popular, and entertainment (such as Dengaku and sarugaku ) and in those religious (Shinto) and ancestors (such as those from China and India).
speficiche Without going further into this fascinating theatrical form, I was struck by a concept that the author sets out immediately, when it addresses the theme of music in Noh performances: the principle of Jo ( 序 ) - He ( 破 ) - Kyu ( 急 ), later adopted by Japan's many art forms (poetry, music, tea ceremony, martial arts).
Analyzing the three characters, we can draw an explanation as to the meaning of three sentences that distinguish this "rhythm". Jo (序) - a beginning or introduction, necessarily slow, simple and direct. He (破) - represents the development of the previous phase, more complex Kyu (急) - the pace accelerates, until the climax.
What may be of interest to the martial artist is how this rate may be applied in a conflict: an initial study phase of cautious opponents, a development skirmish for further analysis (inward and upward ' external), and a conclusion.
scattered considerations:
"Thinking with serenità a questo concetto, potrai vedere come ogni fenomeno nelle sue innumerevoli forme - buono o cattivo, grande e piccolo, cosciente e incosciente - sia pervaso dal Jo-Ha-Kyu . Dal cinguettare degli uccelli al frinire degli insetti, ognuno segue questo principio... Questo [ritmo] anima anche la voce del vento e il suono dell'acqua... "* [Zeami, 'Shougyoku tokka' ]
" La struttura del Nō è concepita musicalmente: possiede un jo , un ha e un kyu , come la musica tradizionale giapponese; il ritmo delle opere Nō ricorda la grande legge occulta dell'universo; si tratta infatti del ritmo universale della vita itself. [Makoto Ueda, 'Literary and Art Theories in Japan' ]
Zeami himself implies that the jo-ha-kyu is a cosmic concept, applied to the entire movement or even to all forms of change: where there is dynamism, the pace will be that of jo-ha-kyu .
The players shakuachi (traditional Japanese flute) the approach to the concept of naru - that of "becoming" - which in turn can be applied as a universal constant: an imperceptible change, a hidden dynamics that manifests itself only during its climax during the end of each "cycle" of jo-ha-kyu .

<< The event last Saturday, March 14, 2009, was attended by many people, including athletes and coaches from different disciplines, motivated by the desire to attend and participate (at least for the most part) have taken the lessons of the masters, the main theme : ju jitsu fighting system .
The work began with a demonstration of the Federal Arbitration technical Stefania Bavoso, and was then continued with the demonstration of technical Maurizio Moroni who has provided dei convenuti svariate tecniche da lui usate nelle competizioni, senza risparmiarsi su niente; ultimi, ma non per importanza, sono stati Stefano Puggioni e Massimo Angeloni, tecnici di diversi stili di karate che, alternandosi e assistendosi vicendevolmente, hanno dato dimostrazione del kumite agonistico, per impostare infine l’ultima parte del pomeriggio su una vera lezione di karate con tanto di esercizi propedeutici e ludici. >> [resoconto di Agostino Lasaracina (responsabile tecnico di Pro Recco Ju-Jitsu)]

After months of talking back, even fireworks. first of all thank you for your interest Ennio for my butterflies & different beasts (will correct errors quickly, I promise!). the pictures of New Year's Eve, I went to the streets on purpose, challenging various problemucci including rauda launched at the height of man (your mother ....!!). This is because Piombino in the New Year fireworks are the most beautiful, and Piazza Bovio you can not resist, especially if you are half the fires. In this case I used with the Nikon D40, ISO sensitivity ranging from 800 to 1600 (depending on the size of the fire as we perceive it - they made a number below) and brightness. E 'was a small battle, because the car is charmed at first. I made several photos "test" with the lights before concentrating on the fire, or rather before the fires leave. I think, after all, that they have not come evil. The buildings were valued by the fire, as well as the reflection of the sea. How exposure mode ho dato priorità ai tempi, perché volevo scattare le foto abbastanza velocemente (in modo che lo scatto non facesse "tremolare" il fuoco, anche perché era vento, non avevo il cavalletto e la gente intorno faceva un atroce casino). Il tempo che mi è risultato consono è stato: 1/30 sec, F minimo 3 massimo 13. Ammetto di non aver fatto particolarmente caso all'inquadratura... infatti la maggior parte delle foto poi ho dovuto ritagliarle, e di aver scattato molto "a raffica". Certi effetti sono quindi un po' casuali, ma per i fuochi non è banale calcolare, soprattutto tenendo la macchina a mano e con la confusione (e il vento gelido) che avevo intorno.

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu - the roots of the warrior's mind
Thursday 29 January, is off Helio Gracie, the founder of the Gracie school of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ from now on), martial art and combat sport in strong growth for its effectiveness in the increasingly the most popular tournaments of "mixed martial arts" spread all over the world (tournaments, in broad terms, allowing a range of techniques ranging from the blows of the fight muay thai full submission grappling).
The real roots of this martial art, as its name implies, but does not lie in Brazil, but in Japan.
the early years of the 900, an exceptional martial artist, the notorious "Count of Combat" (Mitsuyo Maeda), had started a world tour to spread the Kodokan Judo. Between the United States of America and Europe, Maeda earned his living teaching martial arts, until realized that the world was not ready to accept a fighting style so unique and for this reason (and to pay rent and travel), the Japanese began to take part in any form of challenge that would allow him to showcase his exceptional fighter skills, whose resume also included sumo wrestling, various forms of ju jitsu and a set of fighting styles now untraceable.
The career of the unstoppable "Count of Combat" is inextricably interwoven with his legend, in the first decade of the century, his ascent in the hierarchy of the Kodokan was greeted with mixed feelings - the joy of bringing so much honor at home, and the dubious value to participate in events where wrestlers, boxers and street fighters confronted each other until the surrender or KO.
Maeda Since 1910 he settled in Cuba, a land that allowed him to face the best fighters in South America and groped for an "attack" to American standards considered untouchable, as the phenomenon of the fight Frank Gotch and catch the world champion of boxing Jack Johnson - who refused ever to collide with the Japanese: they had too much to lose and too little to be gained.
The "Count" but did not lose heart, and continued to fight with success throughout Central and South America, by obtaining local and international awards, with three compatriots was known as one of "Four Kings of Cuba," the invincible fighters who were able to defeat any adversary.
But the new home of Maeda was not the Caribbean island, but Brazil.
Since 1914 world tour entourage Japanese established their base in this area is so fascinating, where local people idolized the prowess of the fighters (though not considered as "freaks" as was the Central Island), irrespective of their physical appearance; Brazil was in fact always been a cultural and racial melting pot - because of various ethnic groups already living in the exotic features of the Japanese were simply accepted as one of surface of a man many variables: what mattered was something quite different.
The unstoppable "Conde Koma" had finally found a new home, which is tied even more so when he found love and a dream: the establishment of a true Japanese colony in the Brazilian state of Para, where he was already founded the town of Tome-ACU gives his countrymen. A project as ambitious, however, could not be based solely sull'intraprendenza of a man (no matter how exceptional it was), and Maeda became the spokesman of the needs of immigrants Nipponese leaning against a local politician who was able to share his vision.
The Brazilian statesman was as a reward highest form of payment from a Japanese background Maeda could conceive of: his eldest son became the depositary of martial knowledge of the Count. The name of the politician in question? Gastao Gracie. Within a few decades would be born on Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
