Ju- jitsu is a martial art of Japanese origin that has spread all over the world during the past century. In terms of its tactical range, it is one of the most complete martial arts in existence, It includes throws, holds, locks , punches, kicks, strikes, ground grappling, defensive maneuvers, chokes and defence against weapons.
Ju- jitsu is usually translated as the ‘gentle art’ or ‘soft technique. This does not mean the methods used are harmless or not potentially dangerous, but rather that you, as the practitioner, do not oppose strength with strength. Another basic principle of the force used in Ju- jitsu, can be compared to bamboo; it will bend and snap back but rarely breaks.
