The Art Of The Samurai


Recommended Posts

I know Jiu-Jitsu was the art of the samurai but does anybody know what Jiu-Jitsu style was originally used by the samuraies? or did a samurai just choose A Jiu-Jitsu style/s, he was comfortable with?

Hmm well, the samurais practiced Kenjutsu(The art of the sword). Which is now Kendo(The way of the sword). Samurai also studied Kyujutsu(The art of the bow), JiuJutsu like you said and also Iadiojutsu. These are just a few that I can name off the top of my head.

I believe the art was Aiki-jutsu (sp?) which, along with judo, are the forerunners of aikido. I read this somewhere, but I don't remember where. I could be wrong. It wouldn't be the first time. *L*

A block is a strike is a lock is a throw.

Daito Ryu Aiki Ju Jitsu was the main style Morihei Ueshiba (O'Sensei) used to develop aikido, which he originally called Ueshiba Aiki-Budo. Aikido was founded in the early 20th century by O'Sensei, based upon the budo he'd learned from Sokaku Takeda and the spiritual teachings from Onisaburo Deguchi.
