Kyusho-Jitsu: Die vitalen Punkte des menschlichen Körpers in den Kampfkünsten

Kyusho, as Evan Pantazi teaches it, is a marvelous complement to any martial style. It allows us to know our body much better and in consequence, those of others. Kyusho allows us optimize our weapons, as much in defense as in attack as to experience the knowledge of tradition. It helps us to innovate and familiarize ourselves with the unknown possibilities of our Martial Art, showing us how to have, in a subtle way, the most efficient formulas in the application of the martial techniques. When we concentrate our attacks and defenses on specific areas of the body where we know (with scientific evidence!) there are accumulations of energy or centers of energetic diffusion the attacks are much more effective. These physiological areas including nerve, muscular, tendon and vein centers, are highly accessible and when strikes target them they provoke effects on the organism far superior to those that we can expect from a similar power attack on a different area.
