http://www.erols.com/kenrawie/kyudo.html

Extractions: Local Events Kyudo is traditional Japanese archery the "Zen Art of Archery." At Miyako Kyudojo in the Washington, DC area, Kyudo is not a sport, but a form of meditation. Starting with the precision of the movements, peaking with the power of the arrow's release, and continuing with everyday life, a process unfolds in which the practitioner has the opportunity to see his or her mind, pure and spacious. To practice Kyudo in this way, one must have a good teacher a master. Kanjuro Shibata, Sensei is such a teacher. Since the early 16th century the Shibata family has maintained an unbroken lineage of master archers and bow makers for the shoguns and warrior families of Japan. In 1877 the 18th Kanjuro Shibata received appointment to the post of official Bow Maker and Archer to the Emperor. Since then, the 19th and 20th Shibata lineage holders have continued to make bows for dignitaries, official functions and for the practice of Kyudo. In 1994, Sensei's son, Nobuhiro Shibata, was recognized as the 21st in the lineage. The 20th Kanjuro Shibata continues as a "Living Treasure of Kyoto," and the head of the Bishu Chikurin-ha branch of the Heki-ryu school of Kyudo. In 1980 Kanjuro Shibata (XX) established his first dojo in the west, in Boulder, Colorado (USA). Since then he has expanded to over 30 locations in North America and Europe. For a full list, see the

Search Site: kyÅ«dÅ the primary aim is not to hit the target, as in Western archery, but to achieve through spiritual and physical training an intense concentration on the act of shooting and a style expressing perfect serenity. In kyÅ«dÅ the kyÅ«jÅ«tsushi (archer) uses a traditional asymmetrical bow about 7.5 feet (2.3 m) long with a grip about one-third of the distance from the bottom. The bow is composite, made of strips of bamboo and mulberry and strung with hemp. The archer employs an Oriental, or Mongolian, grip, holding the string with the thumb supported by the fingers, and wears a special glove with a thumb reinforced by bone or wood. In the apparently continuous movements leading to the release of the arrow, there are eight recognized stages, each of which must be learned and practiced until the archer can move through them smoothly. There are many kyÅ«dÅ schools in Japan, and tournaments are held annually in KyÅto and Tokyo.

Extractions: Welcome to the Homepage of the TEXAS KYUDO KAI Dallas, Texas The Texas Kyudo Kai is dedicated to the study and practice of KYUDO Traditional Japanese Archery Kyudo is one of Japan's oldest and purest martial arts. It is an elegant, ceremonial, non-combative method of shooting the traditional Japanese bow and arrow. Kyudo requires, and therefore develops, a balanced body that works in concert with a peaceful mind. Kyudo, literally "the Way (or Path) of the Bow", is a path that takes a lifetime to travel. Early progress in the basic forms of Kyudo soon give way to deeper insights into specific details. Each successive insight leads the student to a greater appreciation of the depth, subtlety and sincerity of the Kyudo experience. Originating in Japan, Kyudo is now practiced by men and women throughout the world. The TKK is recognized by the All Japan Kyudo Federation (ANKF), and adheres to ANKF shooting standards. Our style emphasizes reishakei or ceremonial shooting, but students of all styles are welcome to practice with us. The Texas Kyudo Kai is an Associate Member of the American Kyudo Renmei (AKR) TKK PRACTICE SESSIONS: TKK practice sessions are held in the Dallas, Texas area, usually on the weekend, either Saturday mornings or Sunday afternoon, depending on the time of the year and personal committments.

Extractions: Kokoro No Yoi (tanslation) K yudo, the Way of the Bow, is one of Japan's oldest and most honored martial traditions. Over the course of Japanese history and under the influence of Shinto beliefs, Confucian morality, and Buddhist philosophy (including, but not limited to, Zen), the technique of archery flowered into the art of kyudo, where archery is practiced as a Way of seishin tanren , or "spiritual forging." The diligent practice of kyudo provides both healthful exercise and a way for cultivating self-awareness and spiritual maturity, eventually leading to the realization of "Shin Zen Bi", or "Truth, Goodness and Beauty" in the life of the archer. These qualities make kyudo an ideal way for modern people to maintain their physical and spiritual health and composure in an increasingly hectic world. Today, kyudo is practiced worldwide by more than half a million people. Kyudo classes are held under the guidance of Mr. Earl Hartman, who holds a 5th degree rank
