Ju Jitsu Information
What is Ju Jitsu?
The term Jujutsu dates back to the 1600's, the translation of "Gentle Art" gives a huge misconception. it was a method of combat either armed or unarmed.
The Art was used by protectors of very prominent individuals. Situations could be dealt with quickly and effectively, without drawing attention. Offenders could be controlled and removed very quickly and discreetly.
Jiu-Jitsu forms the basis of Karate, Judo and Aikido so in itself could be classed as a mixed martial art in the modern sense of the term. It consists of a mixture of throwing Techniques, Ground Techniques, Joint Manipulations and striking techniques with both the hands and feet.
