Jiu-Jitsu
What is
Jiu-Jitsu?
Jiu-Jitsu
is a traditional Japanese martial art used for self-defence.
The literal
translation of Jiu-Jitsu to English means “the gentle
art.” It could also be
interpreted as “winning by giving in.” The main
elements of Jiu-Jitsu are punches,
kicks, throws and levers. Jiu-Jitsu has two goals: 1) effective
self-defence,
and 2) to live in harmony with oneself and one’s environment.
The history
of Jiu-Jitsu:
The origins
of Jiu-Jitsu are unknown, although it began in Japan
and became very popular
there. During the 18th century many different
styles were united
under the name Jiu-Jitsu. Around 1900, with European sailors travelling
to Japan
and Japanese
visitors travelling to Europe,
the practice of
Jiu-Jitsu began to spread. Today, jiu-jitsu is known around the globe
as one of
the most popular martial arts.
