Dober Posted March 14, 2003 Share Posted March 14, 2003 The Aikido people at my school wear "Jukado" gi's, as do some of the BJJ people, check them out. White Belt - Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kensai Posted March 15, 2003 Share Posted March 15, 2003 I would go more towards a light weight Judo gi, than anything to do with karate gi's. They'll rip, so be careful what you buy. Perhaps ask your Sensei when you go to the dojo next. "gah, aikido"...... I will remember that Dober. Mwhahahahaha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dark_adjudication Posted March 19, 2003 Share Posted March 19, 2003 The difference is that Jujitsu is a combative art (how to kill in combat) and Judo is a combative sport(like boxing or wrestling where the idea is not to hurt your opponent). Jigoro Kano, the founder of Judo, wanted to lead more people to "TheWay" and so he took the really dangerous moves out of Jujitsu and called it a sport. Then to make it more appealing and so everyone could feel special he added the colored belt system that we all know and love. Before Jigoro you were a white belt untill you were a black belt. Some instructors teach Judo to be effective in the street but most do not. I was lucky enought to have an instructor that taught combat Judo. Then agan he had a back ground in Jujitsu. If you want to know how to fight then take Jusitsu. If you like tourament competition then take Judo.
