Kyudo "The Way of the Bow" Kyudo is a Japanese target archery martial art. It is a highly meditative martial art whose ultimate goals are Shin (Truth), Zen (Goodness) and Bi (Beauty). Styles can be divided into two broad categories, shamen uchiokoshi and shomen uchiokoshi. Shamen archers predraw the bow at an angle to the body and fix their grip on the bow before raising it. Shomen archers raise the bow straight over the head and fix their final grip on the bow in a predraw above the head. It is the oldest of Japan's traditional martial arts. The bow has been used in Japan since prehistoric times. From the fourth to the ninth century, close contacts between China and Japan had a great influence on Japanese archery, especially the Confucian belief that through a person's archery their true characters could be determined. Over hundreds of years archery was influenced by the Shinto and Zen Buddhist religions along with the pressing practical requirements of warriors. Court nobles concentrated on ceremonial archery while the warrior class emphasized kyujutsu, the martial technique of using the bow in actual warfare. With the introduction of firearms the bow as a weapon was neglected and almost died out all together until Honda Toshizane, a kyudo instructor at Tokyo Imperial University, combined elements of the warrior style and the court ceremonial style into a hybrid style which ultimately became known as the Honda Ryu (Honda martial school). With the American occupation banning all martial art instruction, traditional kyujutsu schools declined further and when the ban was lifted, Kyudo, as opposed to kyujutsu, became widely practiced. The Zen Nihon Kyudo Federation (All Japan Kyudo Federation) was established in 1953, publishing the standard kyudo textbook called the Kyohon. There now exists a European Kyudo Federation.

ABOUT KYUDO The Late Master Koyama Shinichiro Traditional Japanese Archery From The Meishin Kyudojo Homepage Kyudo, which literally means The Way of the Bow, is considered by many to be the purest of all the martial ways. In the past the Japanese bow was used for hunting, war, court ceremonies, games, and contests of skill. The old word for Japanese archery was kyujutsu (bow technique) which encompassed the skills and techniques of the warrior archer. Some of the ancient schools, known as ryu , survive today, along with the ancient ceremonies and games, but the days where the Japanese bow was used as a weapon are long past. Modern kyudo is practiced primarily as a method of physical, moral, and spiritual development. No one knows exactly when the term kyudo came into being but it was not until the late nineteenth century when practice centered almost exclusively around individual practice that the term gained general acceptance. The essence of modern kyudo is said to be synonymous with the pursuit of truth, goodness, and beauty. Truth in kyudo is manifested in shooting that is pure and right-minded, where the three elements of attitude, movement, and technique unite in a state of perfect harmony. A true shot in kyudo is not just one that hits the center of the target, but one where the arrow can be said to exist in the target before its release.

Kyudo O Caminho do Arco O que é o Kyudo? O Kyudo tem muito em comum com as artes japonesas da cerimônia do chá ( chado ), caligrafia ( shodo ), esgrima ( iaido ) e tantas outras que tão bem espelham o coração e a mente dos japoneses. O Kyudo é rico em história e tradições, e é muito respeitado no Japão. Muitos o consideram como uma das mais puras artes marciais ( budo No passado, o arco era utilizado para diversos propósitos: caça, guerra, jogos e rituais da corte, cerimônias religiosas e torneios. Muitos dos jogos e rituais ainda são praticados atualmente, mas o arco japonês perdeu a sua utilidade como arma há muito tempo atrás. Hoje em dia, o Kyudo é praticado principalmente como um meio de desenvolvimento físico, moral e espiritual. A combinação de graça, dignidade e tranqüilidade dá ao Kyudo um ar solene, quase religioso, mas Kyudo não é uma religião. Ele recebeu, no entanto, grandes influências do Shinto (a religião nativa do Japão) e do Zen- budismo. O Shinto se manifesta mais visivelmente na cerimônia, na indumentária e no respeito demonstrado ao arco, flechas e Dojo (local onde é praticado). A influência Zen se dá mais na filosofia e prática do

Many archers practice kyudo as a sport, with marksmanship being paramount. Kyudo Equipment The yumi (Japanese bow) is exceptionally tall (standing over two meters), surpassing the height of the archer ( kyudoka ). Yumis are traditionally made of bamboo, wood and leather using techniques which have not changed for centuries, although some archers (particularly, those new to the art) may use synthetic (i.e. laminated wood coated with glassfiber or carbon fiber) yumi. Ya (arrow) shafts were traditionally made of bamboo, with either eagle or hawk feathers. Most ya shafts today are still made of bamboo (although some archers will use shafts made of aluminum or carbon fibers), and ya feathers are now obtained from non-endangered birds such as turkeys or swans. Every ya has a gender (male ya are called

CINA CORSI Kyudo, un arco teso tra cielo e terra Il Kyudo, nel rispetto dell'antica tradizione giapponese, si pratica secondo un preciso rituale che prevede una sequenza di movimenti, Kata , apparentemente cerimoniali, in realtà funzionali a raggiungere la coordinazione necessaria al corretto sgancio della freccia verso il bersaglio. I gesti degli arcieri che aprono l'arco si ripetono uguali ad ogni tiro, ampi ed equilibrati, armonici, decisi. Praticando in modo costante, lo spirito e il corpo vengono a trovarsi nella pienezza e, al momento dello sgancio, chi osserva vede la freccia separarsi naturalmente dall'arco. L'aver centrato o meno il bersaglio è la verifica di quanto ogni arciere sia realmente presente a sé stesso, preciso e attento nei gesti, deciso nella realizzazione. Il Kyudo si pratica con un arco molto lungo dalla particolare forma assimetrica, risultato dell'evoluzione, operata dalla tradizionale arceria giapponese, delle forme più antiche usate per caccia e guerra. Tradizionalmente costruito con lamine di bambù e strati di legno di gelso, l'arco viene oggi fabbricato anche con fibre sintetiche, disposte comunque secondo le antiche tecniche. Le frecce, inn bambù o in alluminio, sono notevolmente lunghe, data l'ampia apertura dell'arco giapponese. L'attrezzatura è completata da un guanto in pelle, caratterizzato dal pollice rigido che trattiene la corda fino al momento dello sgancio.

ABOUT KYUDO No one knows exactly when the term Kyudo came into existance, but it was not until the late nineteeth century when the practice centered almost exclusively around individual that the term gained general acceptance. The essence of modern Kyudo is said to be synonymous with the pursuit of truth, goodness, and beauty. Truth in Kyudo is manifested in shooting that is pure and right-minded, where the three elements of attitude, movement, and technique unite in a state of perfect harmony. A true shot in Kyudo is not just one that hits the center of the target, but one where the arrow can be said to exist in the target before its release. Goodness encompasses such qualities as courtesy, compassion, morality, and non-aggression. In Kyudo, goodness is shown by displaying proper attitude and behavior in all situations. A good Kyudo archer is a person who maintains his or her composure and grace even in times of great stress or conflict. Beauty both enhances life and stimulates the spirit. In Kyudo, truth and goodness, themselves, are considered beautiful. Beauty can also be found in the exquisite grace and artistry of the Japanese bow and the elegance of the traditional archer's attire. It is also present in the refined etiquette that surrounds the Kyudo ceremony. Etiquette, which is simply common courtesy and respect for others, is an essential element of Kyudo practice.
