KyuShinDo

This Blog is not associated with the Discredited British Aikido Board - KyuShinDo the Philosophy & Theory of Kenshiro Abbe.a theory that Abbe Sensei `only` applied to Judo. Many have named their Karate - Aikido - JuJitsu and other `stuff` by adding KyuShinDo in a false claim of lineage to Abbe Sensei. The worst abusers on the internet are the `MayoShinDo` who have created another life from a one off meeting between Abbe Sensei and ` Chief ` Mayo...There are even grades in KyuShinDo duh!

The Betrayal of British Aikido History and Lineage

Click photo for expose ` Martial Arts Encyclopedia ` [accessed over 195,000 times] - Mr Jack Poole and the British Aikido Board conspired to change not only the legacy left by the late Budo Master Kenshiro Abbe Sensei but also the UK history of Karate - Kendo and Judo - This fraudulent conduct is also exposed on the following blogs ```British Aikido Board Exposed Blog ``` - - ``` Jack Poole Aikido Controversy Blog ``- What makes this whole disgraceful story of fraud and deceit of genuine Aikidoka of today and in the future, is the amount of people who despite the `proven facts ` were prepared to attempt to support not only Mr Poole but also the disgusting sham - maybe it was simply misguided loyalty - or maybe it was to protect their dubious grades ? - or perhaps it is both ?

`Positive Aikido` a perfect `Traditional` Gift

Available on Amazon USA & UK - Positive Aikido a true story of Traditional Aikido from its 1950s UK origins with the Budo legend Kenshiro Abbe Sensei. The book written by direct students Henry Ellis Shihan and Derek Eastman Shihan authored by senior USA news editor and student Dave Rogers Sensei. If you are looking for a factual traditional experience ? then this book is for you, then again, if your choice is fantasy Aikido, such as floating around the universe with a touch of magic Ki ? be warned this book is not for you, keep your money or put your money in a charity box. Happy reading – regards Henry Ellis

MayoShindo ~ KyuShinDo Karate ~ The Facts !

I, and others, who were direct students of Kenshiro Abbe Sensei from the 1950s, we are getting really hissed off at the use of Abbe Sensei's name and photo on the MayoShinDo - KyuShinDo Karate and video sites. ""You"" are being direspectful to a great teacher, a man we were proud to be direct students of.....Kenshiro Abbe Sensei was 6th dan Karate.... he """"""NEVER"""""" take note """""""NEVER """"""""

applied the theory of KyuShinDo to his Karate. .. Your Mr Mayo 10th dan had """""ONE """""" lesson with Abbe Sensei... Mr Giardina was a student of one lesson Mayo.........Please show some respect..

YOU HAVE NO ASSOCIATION OR CONNECTION WITH K ABBE SENSEI !!

I Know Jack Poole !!

Below is an email recently received from a student who was also a beginner with Mr Poole in 1968....

PMSubject: History From Slough And Bracknell Dojos.

Attention: Sensei Henry Ellis Sensei –

My name is Gilmartin, I was one of your students at Slough and Bracknell Sports Centre dojos. I was Mr. Goodwin’s assistant, while John Berloth was yours.I have just become aware of the bewildering tale of Jack Poole. Your account of the facts tally’s precisely with my memory of that period. I can only conclude that poor Jack has suffered a mental breakdown of some nature and lives in a delusion.Congratulations on your success, my years as a student of yours count among the best of my life.

KyuShinDo the Truth

Click photo :...The KyuShinDo Blog is intended to offer the truth of the great Japanese Budoka Kenshiro Abbe Sensei. A man who had made the study and development of the philosophy of this theory his lifes work...To Abbe Sensei KyuShinDo was the secret behind his phenominal career and achievements. Now we can see its attraction to Mr Mayo and many others, the name KyuShinDo does sound rather ``Japanesey ``..Several groups continue to promote themselves under this banner, often trying to mislead the unsuspecting to believe that they were in some way associated with Abbe Sensei.

W ( Bill ) Reeve ~ First Secretary and Aide to Abbe Senseii

The MayoShinDo group make much of a ``polite `` letter received from K Abbe Sensei. The letter was written by Bill Reeve Sensei the secretary and aide to Abbe Sensei. Mrs Reeve states in a letter on this page " My husband wrote the letter under protest as he considered Mr Mayo an irritating joke. Abbe Sensei wanted Mr Mayo to bring his students into the BJC in the hope of teaching them ``real `` Judo."............Perhaps given the opportunity Abbe Sensei could have taught them ` honesty ` ~ `humility ` ~ self discipline ` ~ ` respect ` ~ ` honesty `.......

M Harada Sensei ~ ShotoKai Karate

Click photo ~ Master Harada was awarded 5th Dan (1956) personally by Gichin Funakoshi who was the founder of modern day Karate-do on mainland Japan. Harada Sensei was the first Karate teacher invited to Britain by Kenshiro Abbe Sensei in 1963 where he started his first classes at the Hut Dojo ~ I ( Henry Ellis ) was in the first Karate class...There was never such a thing as KyuShinDo Karate, as Karate was not compatable with all the working principals of the concept of KyuShinDo.

Myths & Porkie Files

Visit the growing list of the "Myths & Porkie Files"..

Including the amazing " Mayo Porkies "

There are now so many myths surrounding the life of Kenshiro Abbe Sensei and his time in the UK from 1955 - 1964 ( & 1969 ) ..Unsrupulous people are using Abbe Sensei's name in an attempt to gain some sad form of credibility. Abbe Sensei's lifes work the study of the philosophy of KyuShinDo is also raped and abused..Just place " KyuShinDo" in your Google browser, you will be amazed how many have highjacked the term KyuShinDo without fully or even partially understanding its true concept.

I suppose that the name ``KyuShinDo `` does sound rather Japanesy as does ``MayoShinDo `` :-(..
