Yawara Seminar

The Yawara stick seminar is an amazing 12 hour seminar that studies pressure points and small joint manipulations with a six-inch plastic keychain. This is also a general self-defence workshop. This seminar is open to anyone and you don't even have to have a martial arts background to take this seminar. It's exciting, empowering and simplistic in nature. Probably the best use for the Yawara device is in third party interventions where you are trying to help someone else who is being attacked. It's also (as I always say), "a great behavioral modification tool."

Check out the Kyushu website for future seminar dates or drop me an email to be added to my waiting list for notification.

Finger locks are easy with a yawara stick.

Watch how fast and effective finger locks are.

There nothing like mandibular angle pressure to cause pain.
