Jujutsu also known as jiu-jitsu and ju-jitsu,
is a family of Japanese martial arts and a system of close combat
(unarmed or with a minor weapon) that can be used in a defensive or offensive
manner to kill or subdue one or more weaponless or armed and armored opponents.
Jiu-jitsu dates back to the 1530s and was coined by Hisamori Tenenouchi
when he officially established the first jiu-jitsu school in Japan.
This form of martial arts uses few or no weapons at all and includes
strikes, throws, holds, and paralyzing attacks against the enemy.
Jujutsu developed from the warrior class around the 17th century in Japan.
It was designed to supplement the swordsmanship of a warrior during combat.
A subset of techniques from certain styles of jujutsu were used to develop
many modern martial arts and combat sports, such as judo, aikido, sambo,
American Ju-Jutsu, ARB, Brazilian jiu-jitsu, No Holds Barred (NHB) and mixed martial arts (MMA).
The official date of foundation of Jiu Jitsu is 1530.
