Today, bodjutsu is usually associated with the Kobudo of Okinawa or the Japanese koryu budo , which is one of the main elements of classical military training. In the Okinawan version of the weapon is often referred to as "kon" [3] .
The techniques of working with weapons in bodjutsu follow the philosophy that bo is just a “continuation of limbs” [4] . For this reason, this art is often included in various unarmed combat systems or karate [5] .
Bojutsu is one of the main elements of the Bugei Jujappan .
