Description
by Anon (Author)
With this classic instructional manual, this text preserves the authentic techniques of classical Japanese Jujutsu, the mother art of modern Judo and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ).
Published during the early 20th century--a period when Japanese martial arts were being introduced and popularized in the West for their unarmed self-defense potential--this book is a fascinating window into the original combat-tested methods of the Samurai era.
The emphasis of this timeless guide is on practical, effective application, utilizing the opponent's strength against them, embodying the principle of "the gentle art" (Jū (gentle) Jutsu (art/technique)).
A Glimpse Inside:

Detailed, Step-by-Step Instruction: Learn to execute fundamental techniques with precision, as originally practiced by Japanese masters.
-

-
