Bō-Jutsu Renraku-Kumite

棒術   連盟 組手

Bo-Jutsu (or 棒術 in Japanese) includes the fighting techniques ( 術 Jutsu ) of staff fencing ( 棒 Bō ) according to Ryukyu Kobujutsu. Next, Waza (or 技 in Japanese) means ‘techniques’, while Renraku is a contraction of Ren (or 連 in Japanese), meaning ‘row’, and Raku (or 盟 in Japanese), meaning ‘repetition’. So, Renraku-Waza is a row of repeated techniques in which the roles are reversed at the end of the series. In this way, this Kumite (or 組手 in Japanese) exercise or practice fight can continue again and again. In the video embedded below (recorded on 22 July 2024), budoka Johan Oldenkamp, a former national champion from the Netherlands, performs three series of these endlessly repeatable techniques for the Bo.
