Kyusho and the Secrets of the Octagon
Kyusho and the Secrets of the Octagon. Back in 2017, I decided to write an eBook that taught about the connection between the system of pressure point self-defense called Kyusho Jitsu and Kosho Ryu, a complete martial art.
After I released this book and due to its popularity, I decided to write a sequel called Mastering the Octagon, which is a more profound study of the natural laws of Kosho Ryu.
Mastering the Octagon was also very popular and lead to many other Kosho Ryu eBooks and Kosho Ryu Concepts video courses. And I am thrilled that, so many are excited about Kosho Ryu and the Octagon.
Kosho Ryu is not a style of martial art like Kempo, or Tae Kwon Do for example, but a study of the natural laws that govern all things, including attacks.
Kyusho and the Secrets of the Octagon
This eBook helps to connect the dots between Kyusho Jitsu and Kosho Ryu. Kyusho Jitsu is a remarkable and worthwhile study. However, it is a system that does not teach movement apart from directly involved in the strike. As an example, the angle, and direction of a pressure point strike.
Now, in the martial arts world, many will attack pressure points that are unusable in a real street altercation. However, they are very, very wrong. It is NOT pressure points, but the training in which they do. Most martial arts taught today, and especially the main stream ones, are very incomplete. They have become activities for children and a sport.
But BIG EGOS prevent the martial artist from admitting there is more to learn, and to continue to learn. Kyusho and the Secrets of the Octagon are an example of this continued learning. I admitted long ago the shortcomings of my first art, Hapkido, and decided to seek knowledge and more learning to add to what I had spent the first 16 years in the arts doing. This was how Hon Sang Mu Sa Hapkido was born. But more accurately, Kosho Ryu Hapkido.
And Kyusho Jitsu, pressure points, are a MAJOR system within the martial art itself!
Kyusho and the Secrets of the Octagon
In this eBook Kyusho and the Secrets of the Octagon you will understand that most training is learning to stand and fight. And in the application of pressure points beyond a demonstration, this will not work. However, once you add the Secrets of the Octagon to your training, and learn how to MOVE properly, you will succeed. I even did a video course directly on this called Pressure Points of Kosho Ryu.
Kosho Ryu at its core includes pressure point strike, but then when you add the more in-depth knowledge of a separate study of Kyusho its effectiveness goes off the charts.
Back in 2020 I decided to discontinue the selling of this eBook. However, now, 3 years later, I am reintroducing it to the public. They reason why? This book is a significant part of MY journey, and also shows the stages of my 23-year development in Kosho Ryu and 22 years of Kyusho Jitsu.
And if you are eager to learn, this kind of information, seeing my progress of learning can help make it easier for you!
