My family has been practicing jujutsu and judo since just before WWII the U.S. military taught my immediate relatives "Combat Judo" and "Kano juijitsu" back in the late 1930's and 1940's. Jujutsu has been in my family since then. Japanese and Korean karate as well since the 1950's, same source (U.S. Military.)

Hi ya folks, Probably this sort of thing already got mentioned, but I know that lots of martial arts have codified ways of dealing with multiple attackers. Our school, shinden yoshin ryu jujutsu, has them and they are of a genre fairly common for such systems. They're called "toritsuke" and has methods for 2 man, 3 man and 4 man captures. I know most of our school toritsuke tactics, they do somewhat work. I've seen the same type of thing from other schools (of Jujutsu), have you guys not considered these methods? I mean, their codified and everything... with a full set of explanitory principles and tactics. I dunno, maybe you have already covered this subject and I just didn't catch it while reading over the thread...
