Can anyone give out a session about Ju-jitsu and it's teachings? If you didn't get that, what I said was can you describe Ju-Jitsu..for someone like me, that knows nothing about it. or... Know about any schools for Ju-Jitsu that are in the area of New Jersey, U.S.A.?
japanese jujutsu also known as jiujitsu,jujitsu,yawara is basically a mother art, ie judo and aikido are off shoots from jujutsu that has taken various parts from the art and specialised in that part alone. jujutsu consists of strikes used mainly for distraction or to strike specific weak parts of the body,locks,throws,and some ground work not to the same level as brazilian jiujitsu as a samurai would not do to much rolling around on the floor with armour on. jujutsu doesn't require great strength as it uses the attackers strength against him, ie we yield and then redirect the attackers force. it also has a history that can be traced back 2000 years
Thanks for the History session, anyway can anyone give some detail on striking, or any other techinques used? Basically, what I'm trying to ask is give me some excessive detail in it.
i,ll give you an example of a jujutsu hip throw as executed differently to say a judo hip throw. uke throws punch to tori's head-execute a left swan block as you move off the centre line and pull to unbalance as strike uke to the side of the neck(sterno-mastoid), bring your right foot in next to uke's right foot as your right arm loops around uke's waist, bring your left foot in so both your feet are quite close together between uke's feet and you now face the same direction as ukeyou would also have your knee's bent and be on your toes(this is done as you enter) straighten your knee's and pull uke's right arm into your waist tuning to your left to execute the throw, the difference,while uke is in mid air you change your hands so that you push uke's head into the ground, imagine the force the throw generates plus the push thru,result devastating, please do not attempt this with out proper instruction from a qualified instructor as i except no responsibility for accidents,i am not telling you to go out and do this,the strike to the sterno-mastoid alone can have devastating results and i speak from experience.
JiuJitsu School in New Jersey Greetings Xia, For information on Sanuces "Eye-to-Eye" Jiujitsu in the New Jersey area, go to http://www.hillsidejiujitsu.com Thank you. Mark Walker Sensei
Your question is kind of generic Xia since there are so many styles of Jui-jitsu even Japanese ju-jitsu that is probably why you are getting generic answers. Aiki-Ju jitsu is considered by many to be the mother art of ju-jitsu styles as it was developed as a back up to sword techinques and other styles branched off of it. Since it developed to be able to control a sword arm Ju-jitsu contains alot of wrist-locks, arm and hip throws, leg-sweeps, armbars, arm-breaking, dis-arming and controlling techinques. Footwork and balance breaking also play an important role in ju-jitsu. Techniques may also include chokes, take-downs, and other grappling. There are a number of striking techniques in most Japenese ju-jitsu styles and many older styles may include open hand strikes to pressure points in the the arms and the neck. So as far as a description of technique that is what you are looking it. Ju-jitsu locks for example "create a base" that is using the base of the joint as a fulcrum and securing it and then applying pressure with a twisting motion or even body weight against the tendons of the wrist, elbow, shoulder or even neck. Locks can be used to apply severe pain to control an opponent, to bring them down to the ground, make them submit, or if in a particularly dangerous situation rip tendons and break or dislocate joints in a quick and painful way. That is what ju-jitsu primarily does. Some styles of ju-jitsu will specialize on certain aspects of the this.
