Description
Jiu Jitsu History, Traditions, Methods, Knowledge, Philosophy by Jonathan Cussins is an in-depth exploration of this ancient martial art. First used by samurai warriors in Japan, jiu jitsu combines striking, blocking, grappling, and submission techniques to create a comprehensive system for self-defence. This book delves into the history, philosophy, and methodology of jiu jitsu, covering its development from traditional Japanese roots to modern applications in martial arts and combat sports. It also examines the role of mental discipline, physical fitness, and technical skill in achieving mastery of this complex art form. Suitable for students seeking to deepen their understanding of jiu jitsu beyond physical training, this book provides a wealth of theoretical knowledge to supplement their practice and support their progress towards higher grades.
