Gyokko Ryu Kosshijutsu

This system is said to be based on a Chinese boxing system. It's specialty is "kosshijutsu" which simply means "bone fingers" and implies the use of the fingers and hands to defeat enemies by attacking weak points.

Muto Waza are unarmed against either sword or spear and are the most advanced and difficult techniques of the Ryu. The basic movements are that of a spinning top. If a lock is placed on a joint, the joint is held still by the body, while the feet move one's body around the joint. Because footwork takes time, nerve strikes are applied before and during the motion. The movement in Gyokko ryu is also around an opponent's fixed point of balance.

Some cool Tenmon Chimon info in an adobe pdf file so give it some time.
