Overview"Traditional Japanese martial art Jodo, alternatively referred to as ""Shindo Muso Ryu Jojutsu,"" emphasizes the application of the ""jo,"" a wooden staff that is customarily approximately four feet in length. It was conceptualized by Muso Gonnosuke Katsuyoshi during the early 17th century as a comprehensive set of combat maneuvers to be employed against adversaries wielding swords. Jodo techniques consist of a variety of defensive maneuvers, strikes, thrusts, and blocks executed with the jo. Jodo encompasses both solo kata, which are pre-arranged forms, and paired kata, which entails sparring with a companion while frequently equipped with a wooden sword (bokken) to replicate authentic combat scenarios. In executing techniques, jodo training emphasizes timing, distance, control, and precision.
