Ao Denkou Kai
is a group of like minded instructors who have joined together with
Prof. Rick Clark to further their knowledge and understanding of the
martial arts and the links that they share. Prof. Clark shares his
understanding of the martial arts through his system of Ao Denkou
Jitsu.
What is Ao Denkou Jitsu?
Ao Denkou Jitsu is the name chosen to describe the style of martial
arts that Professor Rick Clark teaches. Ao Denkou Kai is the
organization formed to formalize, promote and expand ADJ.
Ao Denkou is translatable as "Blue Lightning"; hence the full name "Ao
Denkou Jitsu" describes "Blue Lightning Techniques" or "Blue Lightning
Method". There are a variety of meanings behind the name; an obvious
choice for the lightning portion is the sensations caused by the
kyusho or Pressure Points that brought many of us to Professor Clark.
Prof. Clark has been on the forefront of promoting Kyusho-Jitsu and
Bunkai, first publishing on this subject in the June 1989 issue of
Inside Kareate the article What is the Purpose of Kata? Prof. Clark
has published articles nationally and internationally on the topic of
Pressure Points, Kyusho-jitsu, and Bunkai. Along with a few other
pioneers Prof. Clark has played a significant role in the
revitalization of this aspect of the martial arts.
Seijitsu Karate Club is proud to be associated with Professor Clark
and the Ao Denkou Jitsu organisation.
