Tatsusaburo Nakayama was a school teacher and martial artist. He is best known for being the first sensei and primary jujutsu teacher of Hironori Otsuka, founder of Wado Ryu, a blended style of jujutsu and Okinawan Shuri- te karate, which would eventually become one of the four main styles of karate.
Early life
Nakayama was born in 1870, in Kuramochi near Akeno Village, Makabe District, Ibaraki Prefecture, Japan. He was the oldest son of Kenzaburo Nakayama.
On April 10, 1886, Nakayama entered Katsunosuke Matsuoka's Shindokan dojo and began learning the Jikishinkage-ryū kenjutsu and the Shindō Yōshin-ryū jujutsu Betsuden (short sword capture, large sword capture, atemi, katsuho, etc.) as basic techniques for swordsmanship. Matsuoka was the founder and soke of Shindō Yōshin-ryū jujutsu.
In 1888, at the age of 18, on the recommendation of Katsunosuke Matsuoka, who was expected to have such talent, he entered the gate of Yosaburo Hakomori, a master of Jikishinkage-ryu kenjutsu swordsmanship.
In March 1890, Nakayama received a Shoden Mokuroku license, training at the Matsuoka Akeno Dojo near Kuramochi. In 1892, he received his Chuden Mokuroku license.
In 1893, Nakayama received the master's license and became a substitute instructor in Jikishinkage-ryu kenjutsu under Hakomori.
In 1895, at the age of 25, Nakayama received a Joden Gokyu Menkyo, the highest technical license in Shindō Yōshin-ryū jujutsu, from Motokichi Inose (Matsuoka's successor and second soke over Shindō Yōshin-ryū).
In 1898, Nakayama began training in the Ono-ha Ittō-ryū kenjutsy, under Sasaburo Takano.
In 1905, a dojo named the Genbukan, was built near the Shimotsuma Junior High School, and Hakomori was named kancho (lead administrator), and Hakomori requested Nakayama to be his dojocho technical instructor.
Shimotsuma Junior High School and the Dai Nippon Butoku Kan
In 1905, A young Hironori Otsuka (originally known as 'Kon' Otsuka), and future founder of Wado-ryu, enrolled as a student in the school.
Nakayama became employed as the physical education teacher at Shimotsuma Junior High School, teaching Judo and Gekken (kendo) classes.
In September 1906, Nakayama was awarded a special kendo Ittō-ryū Tokugyi Shosho certificate by Sasaburo Takano.
in Dec 1908, Nakayama was involved with the Dai Nippon Butoku Kai, in performing a jujustu and kenjustu demonstration, performing jujutsu with Inose. He also competed in this event in kenjutsu again Torajiro Watabiki and Toyokichi Otaki.
In 1913, The Butoku Kai awarded Nakayama with a Renshi license.
Later Life
In May 1919, Nakayama entered the Shindokan again studying Shindo Yoshin-ryu jujutsu under Inose in order to obtain a license as a bone-setter(osteopath). He was also awarded the rank of second dan in kendo. In September of the following year, he was awarded a "Jujutsu Practical Skills Certificate" and received an osteopathic license from the Ibaraki Prefectural Office.
On June 1, 1921, Nakayama awarded a Menkyo kaiden (certificate of mastery and license to teach) in 'Shindō Yōshin-ryū judo' (jujutsu and judo terms were used fairly interchangeably at this time) to Otsuka.
In 1923, the Butoku Kai awarded Nakayama with a 4th dan in kendo, and a Kendo Seirensho certificate, recongnizing his dedication to kendo.
In 1932, Nakayama retired from Shimatsuma Junior High School, but continued teaching and bone-setting at the Genbukan Dojo.
Feb 17, 1939, Nakayama received his 5th dan in kendo from Butokukai president Senjuro Hayashi.
Death and Posthumous Memorials
March 2, 1945, Nakayama died, per confirmation by family descendent Tsuyuko Nakayama, in Shimotsuma City, Ibaraki Prefecture, Japan. Sometimes an erroneous death year of 1933 is listed.
In 1973, Nakayama's students from Shimotsuma School raised a monument in his memory near the Genbukan Dojo.
In 1974, another monument was raised in his memory in Kuramochi, his family home, by his kendo students.

Anecdote
Three Year Kill
Nakayama was good at striking and kicking techniques, and when he was training under Katsunosuke Matsuoka, he got into a big fight with dozens of rough-tempered construction workers, but at that time he was able to perform various attacks while changing his strength. I tested myself experimentally and hit all of them.
After that, when they searched for each of them and confirmed whether they were alive or dead, the earliest they lived was 3 months, and the longest lived 13 and a half years. Hironori Otsuka that sannen-katsuri really existed because he averaged three years.
At this time, Nakayama used a fist with the second joint of his middle finger sticking out.
Nakayama advocated that it is effective to use the fist with the second joint of the middle finger sticking out to strike the vital point, and all the thrusts in Shindo Yoshin-ryu style were used.
This idea was inherited by Wado-ryu, which was founded by his disciple Hironori Otsuka, and in the 36 kihon kata of Wado-ryu jujutsu kenpo, no straight fist is used, and all thrusts are fists sticking out the second joint of the middle finger.
Roundhouse Kick
In the Meiji era, Nakayama used a roundhouse kick in which the opponent's ribs were kicked with the middle foot in a straight line at an angle of 45 degrees.
This kick was incorporated into the training system as the basic technique of Wado-ryu karate, the roundhouse kick.
