Chizi kun bō

Inchyaasa kun is what the original Okinawan (Uchināguchi) word was which in the Okinawan language is short stick. 

 

Inchyaasa is short.

Kun is stick or staff.

Taika frequently had a thick accent and a mix of Okinawan language and Japanese language and back in the early days someone wrote it down as Chizi kun, bō.  It is kind of redundant to say kun (Okinawan for stick) and bō (Japanese for stick).

Tijikun is what some people believe the original Okinawan was though that means fist, which doesn't make since in our opinion with all the open hand strikes done with the weapon and the curled hand captures.

  • Chizi Bridge

  • Oyata Chizi

Lisa Ohmes is currently the only person who knows the Chizi Bridge and Oyata Chizi as Taika taught both these directly to her prior to his passing.
