Description
Discover the ancient art of Japanese Jiu-jitsu, a centuries-old method of unarmed self-defense that was once kept secret and taught only to a select few. This comprehensive guide presents the traditional techniques of Jiu-jitsu, including restraining methods, search and seizure, and the art of Hojojutsu - how to tie people up without using any knots. With extensive step-by-step photographs and instructions, this book provides a detailed understanding of the full range of Kaisho Goshin Budo Taiho Jitsu Ryu, a self-defense system used by the elite samurai class during Japan's feudal era. Learn specific techniques such as the use of hands, throwing an opponent, attacking vital points with strikes and kicks, and the use of weapons like the staff.
