Mystery and intrigue surrounds much of the life of the founder and
practitioner of Ju-Jutsu, the self-styled "professor", S. K. (Sada
Kazu) Uyenishi. However, he was one of the first and probably the
most influential jujitsu and judo experts to demonstrate, teach and
compete in these arts outside of Japan. From the shadowy "Baritsu"
exponents in the stories of Sherlock Holmes, to Inspector
Clouseau's sidekick Cato of Pink Panther notoriety and James Bond's
Odd Job, he of the stage name "Raku" has provided the entertainment
industry with many stereotypes. Sada Kazu Uyenishi even influenced
the seeming erratic, yet expertly controlled, screen pranks of the
masterful Charlie Chaplin; but who was S. K. Uyenishi in real life?
Find out more about him and his uniquely 'soft' style of Ju-jutsu,
from reading this authentic presentation of his book.
