Today in I gave we can enjoy and to learn of his marvelous technique in the Randori, thanks to the technology of his video, that although is blank and black, and is quite old; nevertheless the exceptional art of the master one is seen clearly Mifune, ahi the teacher already would have his 60 years. The he was born in April 21 of the 1983 in the city of Kuji, prefectura of Iwate, in the island of Honshu. He seems that was a restless, although brilliant boy; son of a composed family of seven brothers. Mifune he was initiated to early age in the Judo, being a student of 13 years, he began to practice it in the secondary school. Later iria to Tokyo to continue studies in the university of Waseda, ahi would have the first contact of a long and successful career in the Kodokan of Jigoro Kano. Sakujiro Yokoyama would be its presenter al Institute Kodokan of the young one Mifune, when he had the age of 20 years; Mifune dedicated its time exclusively to learn the Judo; so much asi that its father to would stop helping it. That way Kyuzo had to seek employment to be maintained; but being a skillful and intelligent youth, achieved exito in the business, asi would be able to be enlisted to enter to the university of Keio for study economy. Its career in Judo was quickly elevating, I reach Nidan almost at the age of two of to have begun in Kodokan. Being done acquaintance and respected by the quality of its Judo. It participated in the Red annual tournaments and White gaining in all the opportunities that participated. Already by the year 1912 when had only 29 years, reached the high degree of Rokudan, and was nominated instructor in Kodokan; was so extraordinary its technique, that called him the God of the Judo. At the age of 30 contracted marriage with a youth of their hometown. The twenty following years, Mifune was dedicated to teach the Judo with a perspective cientificista, as was its viewpoint; basing its methodology in the disorder of forces, in the Kuzushi, the displacements or Shintai; teaching tambien the Katas, and practicing the Randori with its students. In the year 1937, when was 54 years old, the Dr. Kano offered him one of the highest distinctions, the degree of Kudan 9no degree.

In the technique of Mifune is seen like unbalances with impressive facility, applying time, angle, distance, rotation, movement, direction, and sense; in wazas as Sumi otoshi, Tai otoshi, Hane goshi, Yoko wakare, OR guruma, Ashi guruma, Of ashi harai, Sasae Tsuri komi ashi, Uchimata; and his formidable management of the Kaeshi waza as nobody have carried out. Sensei Mifune has left after of if, a school, a style, the most notable artistic expression of how should be conceived and to practice the true Judo; through the science and the art of the imbalance, that is the same Judo, there is not another way.
