De oorsprong van Wado Ryu: Hironori Othsuka was een Shindo Yoshin-ryu Jujutsu meester en vermengde die ervaring met het karate dat hij leerde van Gichin Funakoshi, om zo tot de Wado Ryu stijl te komen.

Yōshin-ryū: The Hidden Root of Wadō-ryū Karate

Before Wadō-ryū was known as a karate style, its foundation was deeply rooted in Japanese jūjutsu, specifically Yōshin-ryū (楊心流) — “The Willow Heart School.”

What is Yōshin-ryū?

Yōshin-ryū is a classical koryū jūjutsu system founded in the Edo period. Its philosophy is symbolized by the willow tree:

Soft, flexible, and yielding — yet impossible to break.

Rather than meeting force with force, Yōshin-ryū emphasized:
• Tai-sabaki (body shifting)
• Kuzushi (off-balancing)
• Atemi (vital-point striking)
• Joint locks, throws, and controls
• Using the opponent’s energy against them

These ideas would later become central to Wadō-ryū karate.
