Proactive Training versus Reactive Training

"The problem is always going to be when organizations are reactive instead of proactive when it comes to training." - David Dye

(Over 42 Years of Law Enforcement & 50 Years in The Martial Arts) 

Last week I had a telephone meeting with David Dye to discuss Gunji Taiho Jutsu (GTJ).  I was offered the opportunity to come to Southern California to lead a GTJ seminar at his dojo.  Uniquely enough for those of you that do not know who Dye Sensei is; he is one of the biggest contributors to arresting technique and taiho jutsu in this country.  He is the founder of Shuyokan Ryu in 1980 that is based on the principles of Aikido and includes techniques from Yoshinkai Aikido, founded by Gozo Shioda, Kodokan Judo, a system of Jujutsu founded by Jigoro Kano, Shotokan Karate, a martial art system of empty hand fighting founded by Gichen Funakoshi and other systems.

The quote that starts off this writing is what David Dye Sensei said is an ongoing problem in Police Departments around the country.  When something happens, awareness and attention are used to fix the issue.  Training for arresting technique (Taiho Jutsu) is something that should be proactive so officers will have the advantage.

Over our discussion, we explored the GTJ curriculums and how GTJ has taken big steps forward in Taiho Jutsu reform.  Sensei Dye was very impressed with what we are doing and he said he will continue to explore Gunji University.  I want to say now how honored I was to hear this because of David Dye's contributors to Law Enforcement, Martial Arts, and specifically to Taiho Jutsu.  Taiho Jutsu training is a big mission for all of us to share that have this specific type of knowledge.

In the video above, you will see an Officer in California that has lost the striking, grappling, and ground survival exchange with a suspect.  Lucky this officer is still alive after having his gun taken and used against him as a striking blunt impact weapon.

TIME TO BE PROACTIVE IN YOUR TRAINING FOR ARRESTING ARTS

Gunji Taiho Jutsu is the new era for taiho jutsu techniques (arresting technique) as it is a progressive way to teach Military or Law Enforcement personnel many of the traditional and contemporary jujutsu techniques of control and arrest while at the same time keeping mindful of secondary weapon systems during training and complementing all of the current and evolving Military Combatives programs in place for the different branches of the Military.
