    schema:description "Substantial biographical essay on Yukio Tani by martial arts historian Graham Noble, published in InYo -\nJournal of Alternative Perspectives (Oct 2000), reprinted from Warriors Dreams vol. 1. Reconstructs Tani's\nabsence of reliable dates (Richard Bowen established the arrival in Britain as September 1900, correcting Tani's\nown memory of 26 September 1899), the Bartitsu Club years with Uyenishi under Barton-Wright, and Tani's decades\non the music-hall challenge circuit under manager William Bankier (\"Apollo\"). Documents his record against\nprofessional wrestlers (Ernest Gruhn, Tom Connors, Tromp Van Diggellen, Maurice Deriaz, Jimmy Mellor, and others),\nthe £100 challenge terms, the disputed 1904 Tivoli match with Miyake, the 1905 \"world championship\" contest\nagainst Katsukuma Higashi at Bostock's Hippodrome in Paris, and his unfulfilled challenges to George Hackenschmidt\nand the Great Gama. Covers Tani's early training (father and grandfather were jujutsu teachers; rumoured study\nwith Mataemon Tanabe of Fusen-ryu, supported by Takao Marushima's \"Maeda Itsuyo: Conte Koma\"), joining Gunji\nKoizumi's Budokwai as member #14 from January 1918 as its first professional jujutsu instructor, the 2nd dan\njudo awarded by Jigoro Kano in 1920 (4th dan per the article's photograph caption), leading students (Masutaro\nOtani, Trevor Leggett, Marcus Kaye, Len Hunt), the crippling stroke in 1936, and his death on 24 January 1950.\nAlso publishes several period photographs, including a portrait of Tani as 4-dan.\n"@en ;
