Japanese Ju-Jitsu (Traditional form of the Samurai Warrior)

Traditional Japanese Ju-Jitsu generally doesn’t have a strong sports competition like the Brazilian Ju-Jitsu scene. Since this Martial Art was originally developed for the Samurai Warrior it is suitable in alot of real life combat situations, it is often taught in a very traditional setting where discipline is greatly valued. However there are some modern off shoots of traditional Ju-Jitsu organisations that do hold various events. Some of these events include:

1. Duo – A pair of practitioners perform self defence techniques on each other
2. Randori – No strikes allowed, practitioners fight against each other from a Judo position consisting of throws, holds, locks and chokes
3. Kata – Forms with use of open hand or weapons, or a duo performing together in Kata with or without weapons demonstrating techniques

Different Ju-Jitsu schools can have a different grading / belt system. World Ju-Jitsu Federation Australia requires students to know and demonstrate a certain number of techniques from the official syllabus in order for a student to receive their grade.

There is no such thing as a perfect Martial Art system, so whether Japanese Ju-Jitsu, Brazilian Ju-Jitsu, Karate, Judo or Aikido and alot more it essentially comes down to every individuals personal goals and what they want to achieve out of a Martial Art system.
