Hans-Gert Niederstein

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hans-Gert Niederstein (born April 24, 1928 in Oberhausen ; † November 12, 1985 ) was a teacher and master of self-defense Jiu Jitsu and the martial arts Judo . He was also President of the International Danträger eV (KID) and the German Jiu Jitsu Association (DJJB). The deceased at the age of 57 years H.-G. Niederstein (honorary title Hanshi , 10th Dan Jiu Jitsu, 2nd Dan Judo) showed his students the technical, stylistic and spiritual path - as a high-graded master and president of both associations - and exemplified them for his students. He knew how to convey himself physically and mentally and passed on to his students what had become his second self.

Martial arts career

In 1948 Hans-Gert Niederstein began training in Jiu Jitsu and boxing in Oberhausen under Wilhelm Brinkmann , who was a close combat instructor during World War II . In 1952 Niederstein took part in the Jiu Jitsu service training of the Sterkrad post-war police in Oberhausen under Willi Schmitz , an Oberhausen police officer and former heavyweight boxer. In the judo club Hamborn 07 (Duisburg) in 1953, Hans-Gert Niederstein began judo training under Walter Schombert (4th Dan Judo), three-time German heavyweight champion (1955, 1956, 1957) and bronze medal winner of the European team championships in 1951 Training in Duisburg, Niederstein attended courses with the DJB national trainer Tokyo Hirano . In 1955, Hans-Gert Niederstein founded a sports department in the TUS 1887 Oberhausen-Alstaden. He was supported by his judo trainer Walter Schombert. In 1960 he moved to Mülheim an der Ruhr for professional reasons and in the same year founded the Judo and Jiu-Jitsu Association Bushido Mülheim eV In 1972, H.-G. Niederstein the KID, as a communication forum for Danträger, and three years later, in 1975, the DJJB, as an association for the associations of Danträger of the KID. In his will, Hans-Gert Niederstein - after his death in 1985 - appointed his long-time training partner Dieter Lösgen to be his successor and president of the Korporation Internationaler Danträger eV and the German Jiu Jitsu Association

Graduations

In 1960 - after seven years of judo training - Hans-Gert Niederstein passed his first Dan in judo at the Sport University Cologne with the best mark for the "self-defense" part with Kokichi Nagaoka , the national judo trainer of the German Judo Association (DJB). He received his 2nd Dan in Judo in 1962 from Johan van der Brüggen (then 6th Dan Judo) in The Hague (Netherlands), a student of Ichiro Abe from France. In front of the same commission he passed the examination for the first dan in Jiu Jitsu and received it from Heinz Günter . In 1964, Hans-Gert Niederstein passed the examination for the 2nd Dan Jiu Jitsu with the Austrian Wolfgang Hencesch (5th Dan Jiu Jitsu). He passed the 3rd Dan with distinction in front of a ten-person examination committee in Frankfurt under the direction of Heinz Günter. Because he passed the exam with distinction, H.-G. Niederstein took the 4th Dan Jiu Jitsu exam after only two years of waiting - instead of the regular four - and successfully passed it before the same examination board. He passed the 5th and 6th Dan with Erich Rahn in Berlin. The 7th, 8th and 9th Master degree in Jiu Jitsu were (Jap. "Great master") in the coming years honorary by Dai-Sensei Robert Tobler (10th Dan Jiu Jitsu) to H.-G. Niederstein awarded. In 1982 Robert Tobler (* 1902; † May 26, 1983) - shortly before the end of his life - awarded Hans-Gert Niederstein the honorary title of Hanshi and the 10th Dan Jiu Jitsu, the highest master level in Jiu Jitsu. This highest graduation was connected with Tobler's request to H.-G. Niederstein that he should continue to teach the martial art Jiu Jitsu and spread it internationally when Robert Tobler died.

publication

Under the title "Self-Defense for Women: Successful Defense through Simple Practices" , Hans-Gert Niederstein wrote a book on the subject of women's self-defense . This book, which is accompanied by many illustrations, was published by Econ-Taschenbuch-Verlag one year after Niederstein's death in 1986.
