TAI JUTSU – Pure Motion Heritage
Hatsumi Sensei started our instruction in Amatsu rules by explaining two
necessary basic ideas. He defined that the examine of Gairon and Tai Jutsu
have been related and important to our skill to obtain his instructing. With out understanding
these rules, we couldn’t proceed.
Gairon is the underpinning or basis of Amatsu. He describes this essence as
sensing the interconnectedness of all issues within the universe. Gairon additionally interprets as
seeing the entire image and its thread in any given state of affairs.
“Gaia the Greek goddess of the earth.” “The connection between the
biosphere and Gaia is like that between your physique and also you. The biosphere is
the three dimensional geographic area the place dwelling organisms exist. Gaia is
the tremendous organism composed of all life tightly coupled with the air, the oceans
and the floor locks.” Lovelock, J. GAIA A New have a look at life on Earth.

Tai Jutsu is greater than only a talent or physique motion, it’s a feeling, an essence born
from nature.
He defined to us that with out Tai Jutsu (Pure Motion), then nothing would
exist within the universe. This is applicable to climate patterns, water circulate, opening of flowers
and human improvement.
The Hichi Buko Goshin Jutsu custom holds the key of the opening of flowers, the
very essence of life on our planet.
Victor Schauberger a pure scientist describes it within the following method:
“Had been water really what hydrologist deem it to be – a chemically-inert
substance-then a very long time in the past there would have already got been no water and no
life on this Earth. I regard water because the blood of the Earth. Its inside
course of, whereas not equivalent to that of our blood, is nonetheless very comparable. It
is that this course of that provides water its motion. I might examine this internal
movement, the origin of all doable bodily motion, to that of a blossoming
flower bud. Because it unfolds, it creates a vortex-like crown of petals, within the centre
and on the finish of which stands the true secret of motion-life in statu nascendi,
within the type of a focus of motion”.

Hello Chi Buko Goshin Jutsu
The varsity of the key of the opening flower. The key of the opening flower is the
interaction of nature’s forces of compression and stress in a state of equilibrium. The
expression of the opening of the flower is the bias of the dynamic energy of stress
from inside and the interaction of compression from with out, giving type to the flower.
Within the coming into being as type, the stress contained in the flower overcomes the
compression of gravity and exterior drive maintaining it as a bud. As with all three
dimensional type being a part of the Kyu Jutsu cycle of fifty/50 stability (an idea of
stability between insubstantial and substantial type present as one entity.) Being in
type is the footprint of its previous and the precursor of its eventual degeneration. That is
the Ko/Ku cycle of beginning/loss of life creation and destruction of earthly type.
Victor Schauberger a pure scientist within the 1930’s describes this kind from a watery
origin as our very metamorphis, the approaching into being of type.
The shape that evolves from the metamorphis of water is constructed from its liquid prestress
intelligence. Organic constructions come into type from a liquid or water origin with a
prestress intelligence to resist the stresses of compression and stress. As life on
earth, this could manifest as life in air with gravity or underwater relying on its
ecological circumstances.
This ease of evolvement in nature follows the idea of doing extra with much less recognized
as “ephemerialisation”. From these origins, any evolvement will be defined by way of
the science now referred to as Biotensegrity.
Dr. Stephen Levin’s analysis in Biotensegrity holds the view that the physique is a
tensegrity truss system with stress members supplied by a matrix of connective
tissues, ligaments, muscle groups, blood vessels, nerves and fascia.
On this mannequin, the bones are thought of as spacers, not weight bearers together with
incompressible fluids giving form and type to a smooth tissue entity.
In step with this idea of the physique being a smooth tissue continuum, Hatsumi Sensei
demonstrated to us the idea of a one level therapeutic protocol. This was doable
due to the precept of Gairon utilising the interconnectedness of all of the organic
constructions of our our bodies.
“The continuity or international interconnectedness of the dwelling matrix is crucial
to the understanding of the physique and the function of energetics in well being and
illness”. Oschman, J. Vitality Medication (P232)
He taught us that to use strain on one level affected all elements and defined that
with the physique motion “Tai Jutsu” you have been capable of comply with the torsional instructions
of weak or broken tissue. He defined that these factors of interplay have been
referred to as Kyusho, the place change at one level had a vital impact on the entire.
Water in its structured type is enclosed within the physique in fascial compartments. It helps
to supply shock absorption and holds form of a tissue. The completely different densities of
liquids contribute to their type as both a sol or gel.
©Copyright Dennis Bartram November 2004 Up to date April 2005
Due to this fact, as we transfer from liquid state to a denser tissue determines how the tissue
reacts. This impact carries on by way of all tissues from fascia to bone.
To start to grasp how these ideas relate to Amatsu and pure motion
energy we have to achieve an understanding and consciousness of the pure circulate of vitality
and the forces of nature, each on a tangible and intangible degree.
Within the cycle of precipitation, water falls from the clouds within the type of rain or snow
and finally finds its method again to the ocean. Water falls from the sky and flows
downhill because of the drive of gravity. As soon as within the sea, water rises within the type of
vapour overcoming gravity by way of evaporation. Because it strikes, it kinds clouds, that are
then pushed, again over land the place the method begins once more.
This cycle includes FU (wind), SUI (water) and the pure forces and energies of
gravity and warmth. This can be a pure instance of the interplay of wind and water
following the legal guidelines of attraction and minimal vitality.
Once we select to disregard nature or work in opposition to it, the results will be each
unhealthy and vitality consuming.
In modernised society, individuals sit, stroll, drive and work in mechanically oriented
patterns. Even in sports activities you see repetitive and biased motion sequences. This
results in many postural and musculo-skeletal pressure patterns within the physique.
Many occupations give rise to repetitive pressure accidents that convey ache and
incompetence to our our bodies.
Pure motion methods are low vitality consuming, omni directional, versatile
and easy.
To return to an understanding of pure motion rules we have to have a look at
obtainable scientific knowledge.

Our function as therapists inspecting Ampuka (organ ecology) is to establish these
restrictions and their anatomical implications. From their organ websites, we will comply with
strains of stress involvement to come back to an understanding of their symptomatic and
anatomico-physiological patterns.
This helps to grasp trigger/impact elements and doable postural biases contributing
to a given pathology.

Customary strategies of evaluating the physique have been primarily based on Newtonian physics however this
mannequin doesn’t match our upright bipedal motion in opposition to gravity.
Newtonian physics can measure and calculate the power of constructions and the
stresses they develop into topic to.
Within the development of buildings, particularly tall constructions, gravity performs an enormous half in
their stability. The downward compressive drive of gravity holds the construction in
place.
This works properly till you need to add a horizontal construction to the upright one. This
horizontal construction provides a shear stress to the constructing and requires reinforcement.
Any further stresses resulting from wind or earth tremor complicate the system even
additional.
It’s estimated that if the human body have been constructed based on these guidelines, the
head could be too heavy for the backbone to deal with. All this earlier than we even start to
transfer in three-dimensional area.
Sadly, the physique remains to be reviewed and described in outmoded mechanical
anatomical phrases. Till the idea of Biotensegrity, the legal guidelines describing anatomical
motion have been based on Newtonian rules.
Gravity Creates Stability Shear Stress

In a tensegrity construction, compression components float within the interspace of the stress
wires. Within the physique, this is able to relate to the vertebrae within the backbone. Every subsystem
(vertebrae, disc and smooth tissue) could be a subsystem of the spines meta system, like
the beehive analogy.
When seen on this method you may perceive their function in balancing stress and
compression when stress is utilized to the human body. Extracts from ‘Backbone’ state
of the Artwork Opinions Vol , No 2, Could 1995, Hanley and Belfast, Philadelphia, Ed
Thomas Deman M.D
Masses utilized to the physique distribute their strain by way of the community of stress
components to create a stability. Even a strain load to a small bone will distribute the
load by way of the entire system.
A pure motion technique in tensegrity truss architectural type is the closest
clarification of nature’s legal guidelines at work within the human body.
Human beings are the one creatures that have to be taught to extra naturally.
Hatsumi Lectures 1995
This bio tensegrity makes the artwork of upright strolling in opposition to gravities compression an
easy act for the human. In Newtonian rules after we stroll the meta tarso
pharangeal junction is described as a fulcrum for the entire physique weight to venture
itself ahead in a step.
In a lever system you may solely pull down. Muscle tissues once they contract within the physique
can solely pull us downward. Due to this fact when the small muscle groups within the toes contract the
downward pull generated can not give sufficient energy for a lever such because the meta tarso
pharyngeal joint.
This places a complete new complexion on the pure motion rules that Hatsumi
defined to us.
Bones floating in a compression, stress community can type into trusses and lengthen out
from the physique like a bridge. This makes the physique a weight mover not a weight
bearer. So in strolling and particularly when your on one leg, the balanced stress
maintains the integrity. “Hatsumi says that you should be taught to drift in your stroll”
Hatsumi (2003).
Dr. Stephen Levin in his analysis of Biotensegrity has studied the pelvis and its
ligamentous association and likened it to a spoked wheel. The pelvis stays
balanced to forces performing each from above and under with lengthy levers. Even the act
of standing on one leg doesn’t compromise this construction of assist.
Considered from the entrance the pelvis will be likened to the identical bicycle wheel analogy.

In case you think about the bicycles wheel as being twisted it kinds a leminiscate giving rise
to the paired innominate bones. The sacrum nonetheless within the centre is represented by the
hub. The tensegrity throughout such a construction offers omni directional stability and
energy.
Even the stability of the sacrum between the 2 iliac bones is supported by smooth tissue
components.
To liken the pelvis to an arch means that the sacrum is fastened like a locking stone in
a Roman arch or flying buttress.
Type Match Power Match
This is able to require both a type match or a drive match to safe it in place. Each of those
strategies require quite a lot of friction and usually are not omni directional versatile and low vitality
programs.
The boot mechanism of the sacrum is roofed with a slippery floor making type match
or drive match impractical.
The sacrum really hangs in entrance of the pelvis and the angle would easy fall
ahead. The tiny actions doable on the boot mechanism articulation additionally comply with
a leminiscate sample and mirror the pelvic analogy to a twisted bicycle wheel.

These actions can solely be made doable in a tensegrous truss system. Levin. S,
(2005).
The ligaments and smooth tissues are “constructed with smooth visceoelastic
supplies that behave non linearly” Journal of Mechanics in Medication and
Biology Vol 2,3 and 4, 375-388 World Scientific Publishing Co.
The distinction between a mechanical construction and a human in movement is that this nonlinear
flexibility of selection in motion.
“In Newtonian physics a 4 dimensional universe is commonly described as a
big clockworks in three dimensional area manifesting linear processes in
time” Energy Vs Power D, Hawkins. (2002)
In different phrases, motion of a construction is decided by an idea of causality.
One-step sequentially resulting in the subsequent in mechanical formation.
The human body just isn’t dominated by this idea and is able to nondeterministic,
omni directional change within actions. That is like altering the formation of
a step while you realise you will journey
Within the mechanical construction, motion will be created by a cogged mechanism. With
cogs of various sizes and dealing at completely different speeds, motion will be created to
drive machines. For instance, smaller cogs influencing bigger wheels can drive a
windmill.
In any system like this, there’s a vital level the place a small drive exerted on certainly one of
the cogs may exert the best impact on all of the cogs.
Within the human organic body these vital factors additionally exist, how many people have
tripped over a stone? One vital level can have an effect on the entire of our mechanism
Important Level Even a toothpick may grind the mechanism to a halt

due to the interconnectedness of our tensegrity members within the smooth tissues of the
physique.
Within the human physique, there are lots of anatomical weak websites the place a small drive
can exert appreciable injury, even loss of life. In budo warrior craft, these factors have been
studied to achieve victory in a combat state of affairs. Even when an individual wears armour,
weak locations are left uncovered on the expense of motion.
Hatsumi teaches the vulnerability of those vital factors within the physique in his classes on
Budo. In Japanese, they’re referred to as Kyusho and the Kanji or Japanese ideogram for
the phrase vital is interpreted as that means hazard or alternative.
Within the drugs Hatsumi taught us, he demonstrated the potential alternative for
these Kyusho to result in wellness within the physique.
By observing movement of an individual as they stroll he can decide which tensegrity strains
of the smooth tissues are compromised. On analysis, our Orthopaedic exams and muscle
exams confirm these findings in a scientific setting.
By making use of, a strain to the compromised Kyusho with an omni directional
flexibility that’s delivered by his our bodies Tai Jutsu, (Pure Motion) he releases
the vital level.
This strain doesn’t act regionally on the tissue or comply with a particular anatomical route
alongside muscle groups or fascia. It follows to the depth of the tissue change and might act in a
non-linear dynamic method that matches the stress/compression adjustments to the
broken tissue. That is led to by the flexibility to palpate deeply into tissue
with out drive suggestions being a resistant drive.
Scientific analysis by Oshman, J. in 1990 has proven that strain utilized to tissue
can have an effect on the viscosity turning a sol again to gel. This has the impact of decreasing a
restriction to a moveable construction immediately.
Hatsumi Sensei defined to us, hundreds of years in the past earlier than pathology of organs
was understood; Ampuka relied completely on tactile emotions. The pure skill derived
from pure motion permits you to comply with the directional pathway of a restriction
and angle your thumb to develop into a fulcrum for change.
Within the artwork of Shinden, he advised us that our vitality or intent should come from the guts to
our thumb to instigate the change. My preliminary understanding of this idea was to be
honest and benevolent or your intent to provoke therapeutic within the consumer.
This omni directional palpation is described by him as a sense from the guts of man
and described in an ideogram calligraphy he drew for me.
“Shin Kokoro Kara Ose”
Press out of your coronary heart to your thumb.
Though that is necessary, newer analysis has demonstrated that the guts is the
fundamental generator of electrical energy within the physique within the type of vitality. Science additionally tells us
that vitality can neither be created nor destroyed, solely transformed.
This coronary heart really feel is the essence of Shin Den utilized by way of the fingers of the therapist
to the vital level requiring this vitality conversion. Your contact can really inject a
behavioural message or intent into the restricted tissue to assist disassemble lesion
patterns.
You possibly can create instantaneous elicitation in tissue by way of the connective tissue matrix.
Your anatomical, useful and palpatory assessments enable for each a exact but
international strain approach.
The is the important thing to the Heritage of Hatsumi’s lineage of data utilized as a remedy.
The essence of Amatsu is to have the ability to detect and affect these Kyusho to convey
about change within the our bodies physiology.
The science of Biotensegrity can display the dynamic and potentials of this
strategy to a pure remedy. This strategy has been protected and handed down as
a lineage for 3 thousand years.
“To know the patterns is delicate energy. The delicate energy strikes all issues and
has no identify.” Hawkins. D, Energy Vs Power (2002)
A ninja’s responsibility is definitely to sneak into the world of science and be certain that it’s
the servant, not the grasp. Hatsumi (2004) Manner of the Ninja p127
Hatsumi Sensei has now handed this sense and philosophy on to us as a heritage to
assist mankind.
I’ve studied many programs that make use of smooth tissues for launch of anatomical lesions.
Therapeutic massage, smooth tissue manipulation and ligamentous articular balancing all make use of smooth
tissues and ligaments in altering the pulls or stress patterns within the physique.
The distinctive strategy of Amatsu in utilising physique positioning behind the contact level
makes it a strong and dynamic methodology of correction.
He defined to us that strategies are born from the circumstances of the state of affairs.
He summed it up with the next assertion:
“The spirit and feeling of a way are extra necessary than the mechanical
methods to realize it”. Hatsumi Lectures.
He advised us that with out this talent you’re solely urgent, in Japanese that is referred to as a
Shiatsu, to finger press.
Its Tai Jutsu and your feeling that differentiate it from urgent to being therapeutic.
You should be capable of palpate deeply and affect the directional route of the lesion.
That is the ageless heritage that brings the wellness from the particular person.
Takamatsu sensei: “if individuals stay wholesome all through their life, are
right-minded and neither rush nor are late of their actions, the pure
result’s a ticket to paradise, and this additionally turns into a method for becoming a member of
collectively and uniting”
Within the visceral strategy, you’re focussing on the stress of fascia across the organs.
We have to combine the idea of 1 level strategy to a tensegrous construction
altering sol to gel within the tissue matrix.
Your tactile analysis across the anatomical location of the organs can even
decide the pulls that affect the organ restriction. With this info, you may comply with strains of stress to establish different constructions within the lesion stack. This helps
to establish the precedence construction creating the issue. At this website or Kyusho your one
level contact, angle and physique motion can create the fulcrum to dissipate the lesion
stack.
As soon as our anatomy and Tai Jutsu are developed, the talent you develop is addressed in
Hatsumi’s phrases: UNDERSTAND, GOOD, PLAY!
The Scientist is aware of that within the historical past of concepts, magic all the time precedes
science, that the instinct of phenomena anticipates their goal data.
