  • The Evolution from Martial Arts to Self Defence
    The Evolution from Martial Arts to Self Defence There is no doubt that Jujitsu has changed along with human evolution. Currently, this art has shifted to more functional practices to suit present needs. With this change in Jujitsu practices, it has taken it away from being a martial art and transformed to a self-defence style, combat sport or combat art. The etymology of martial art is of importance in determining whether Jujitsu can still be classified as such. In this context, martial means ‘of war, warlike’ and art a ‘nonscientific branch of knowledge’. Taking this description into account, can it be stated still that Jujitsu is a warlike art? Jujitsu was originally a martial art from Japan created to defeat an opponent without using weapons or only a short weapon. Jujitsu was developed among the samurai of feudal Japan and also, limited to this upper class group. The Samurais knew that striking against an armored opponent was ineffective, hence they learned to neutralize the enemies by using forms of pins, joint locks, and throws. These techniques were developed based on the principle mentioned above that seeks to use the attacker's energy against them. There are many variations of the art, which leads to a diversity of approaches. Jujutsu schools (ryū) may utilize all forms of grappling techniques to some degree, for example, throwing, trapping, joint locks, holds, gouging, biting, disengagements, striking, and kicking. In addition to jujitsu, many schools teach the use of weapons. Then, to describe Jujitsu as a martial art would no longer be correct as it is no longer used to defeat opponents that wear armour or carry small weapons in battle fields.

  • Health Benefits & Risks in the Young Judo Athlete
    Health Benefits & Risks in the Young Judo Athlete USA Judo Sports Medicine Subcommittee Robert S. Nishime, M.D. The goal of USA Judo Sports Medicine is to promote and facilitate a healthy athletic lifestyle through safe judo participation. The health and safety of judo participants should always remain the number priority when advising or caring for our athletes. History and Philosophy Judo is one of the most participated sports worldwide, with practitioners spanning all age groups, gender lines, and ethnicities. Judo was originally derived from a truly “combat” oriented martial art known as jujitsu. Jujitsu was basically developed in medieval feudal Japan for battlefield ‘hand-to-hand/sword’ confrontations when a Samurai warrior lost his sword during combat. Therefore jujitsu became by necessity, a “dangerous” form of combat for survival and an adjunctive tool for victory during war. However, through the founder of judo, Professor Jigoro Kano, jujitsu made a profound transition from a dangerous, primarily combative art form. Professor Kano modified various styles of jujitsu into a “safe”, life enhancing martial art, which he called Judo or the “gentle way”, that is now an Olympic sport. He accomplished this in part by removing many of the striking, kicking, gouging, and joint locking techniques that were primarily intended to maim or injure an opponent. He retained and created techniques that could be practiced relatively safely and harmoniously between practitioners. He placed much emphasis on achieving “mutual benefit” when individuals train together. Professor Kano redirected the primary goals of training in his martial art from self-defense and survival to the development of mind, body, and character.

  • Adjustment Description Alterations to V-Shift's
    Adjustment Description Abilities granting invincibility or armor from the 1st frame, as well as low- risk or high-return moves invincible to throws have all been adjusted to have less effective throw invincibility. Alterations to V-Shift's Considering V-Shift's offensive and defensive capabilities, normal throws offensive/defensive should have enough impact to reliably handle V-Shifts, but characters with capabilities the invincible abilities mentioned above had an easy way to deal with throws and strikes. This gave their defense such a strong advantage that offensive opponents struggled against it. These adjustments seek to correct this issue. These general adjustments are a continuation of previous adjustments. Improvements to While V-Skills and V-Triggers have already been adjusted overall, players infrequently used V-Triggers tend to use one V-Skill and V-Trigger over the other, so we have further and V-Skills strengthened the techniques themselves and the moves that rely on their input. Some characters have been rebalanced in light of previous adjustments. We have buffed characters who were lacking in strength or who were Rebalancing of some largely left alone in previous adjustments. characters Characters with downward adjustments have not had their moves altered significantly; rather, the risks and returns of moves have been properly balanced. Balance Change Overview We've adjusted Nash's close-quarters attack, standing light kick, to yield more of an advantage on hit, and we have further improved Nash's impressive mid to long-distance combat. Standing light kick was previously adjusted to have faster start-up and to be easier to land, but we noticed that it didn't grant the same rewards as it did for other characters.

    CQB KAJUKENBO CLUB Combatives, Personal Protection & Defensive Tactics FAQhttp://www.cqbkajukenbo.com Last Modified: 1st May, 2017, 11:50 AM “Only a warrior chooses pacifism; others are condemned to it.” — Unknown “We make war that we may live in peace.” — Aristotle “Civilize the mind but make savage the body.” — Chairman Mao Q: “WHAT IS KAJUKENBO?” Kajukenbo is a hybrid martial art that combines multiple martial arts including (but not limited to) western boxing, judo, jujutsu, kenpo karate, tang soo do, and kung fu. Kajukenbo is considered by many experts to be America’s first ‘Mixed Martial Art‘ — commonly known as ‘MMA‘. It was founded around 1947 in Oahu, Hawaii and the first classes were taught in the Palama Settlement Gym. The original purpose of the art was to deal with local crime, and to help the people defend themselves against U.S. Navy sailors from Pearl Harbor who would start fights with the locals. The creators are recognized as being Sijo (“founder”) Adriano Emperado, Peter Young Yil Choo, Joe Holck, Frank Ordonez, and George Chang, who were later called the ‘Black Belt Society’. The founders of Kajukenbo wanted to develop an art that would be readily useful on the street. As they trained and fought in and around Palama Settlement, the founders of Kajukenbo quickly gained reputations as formidable street-fighters. While similar to -and compatible with- Jeet Kune Do, Kajukenbo predates JKD by about 20 years. Kajukenbo uses hard, fast strikes to soft targets and vital points throughout the body, takedowns involving high impact throws and many joint and limb destruction techniques — usually as follow-ups to takedowns or grappling.

  • Hand to Hand Combat
    *FM 21-150 i FM 21-150 ii FM 21-150 iii FM 21-150 Preface This field manual contains information and guidance pertaining to rifle-bayonet fighting and hand-to-hand combat. The hand-to-hand combat portion of this manual is divided into basic and advanced training. The techniques are applied as intuitive patterns of natural movement but are initially studied according to range. Therefore, the basic principles for fighting in each range are discussed. However, for ease of learning they are studied in reverse order as they would be encountered in a combat engagement. This manual serves as a guide for instructors, trainers, and soldiers in the art of instinctive rifle-bayonet fighting. The proponent for this publication is the United States Army Infantry School. Comments and recommendations must be submitted on DA Form 2028 (Recommended Changes to Publications and Blank Forms) directly to Commandant, United States Army Infantry School, ATTN: ATSH-RB, Fort Benning, GA, 31905-5430. Unless this publication states otherwise, masculine nouns and pronouns do not refer exclusively to men. iv CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Hand-to-hand combat is an engagement between two or more persons in an empty-handed struggle or with handheld weapons such as knives, sticks, and rifles with bayonets. These fighting arts are essential military skills. Projectile weapons may be lost or broken, or they may fail to fire. When friendly and enemy forces become so intermingled that firearms and grenades are not practical, hand-to-hand combat skills become vital assets. 1-1. PURPOSE OF COMBATIVES TRAINING Today’s battlefield scenarios may require silent elimination of the enemy.

  • The Workout This Is Really More of a Mini-Workout… but As Always, I Encourage You to Add More and Freestyle Once Your Warm and Your Official Work Is Done
    FBP - Week 8 Day 3 Let's work on some advanced ways to slam your opponent on the ground. The first video is a quick one, but it highlights an incredibly effective Judo technique that you can add to the efficacy of your Body Lock. Ko Soto Gake Translated directly, it means "Small Outside Hook"... which is not a cool name in any language. Now let's not forget that we are inherently Mixed Martial Artists, and combining styles makes everything more effective. It's not often that we get to add Muay Thai's level of damage-dealing with Wrestling's level of position-improving... but that's what were' about to do! Kicking Into Shots …and flowing off. This is a great way to set up your takedowns, as well as some savage hooks to your opponents face. The Workout This is really more of a mini-workout… but as always, I encourage you to add more and freestyle once your warm and your official work is done. Warm-up with 25 Roundhouses with each leg You should be spinning in a full circle on these. Please see the basic Roundhouse video for details. Continue to Warm-Up with 25 “Snap” Roundhouses with each leg These kicks have far less power, but if you have no training partner, and no bag, you’re going to need these for the workout. Continue continuing to Warm Up… By doing the following: 1. 20 Lunges on each leg 2. Shadow-boxing for One Minute 3. 20 Shots on each leg Now you’re warm… let’s get to work.

  • Introduction
    Introduction “...the Shorin-ryu (Shorin ‘school’) is very light and quick, with rapid motions to the front and back, which may be likened to the swift flight of the falcon.” - Karate-Do Kyohan, Gichin Funakoshi, p.8 The Pinan kata, “forms of safety”, are a series of five forms from the Shorin-ryu (Shuri-te) School of Okinawa Karate-do, which was known for its speed and agility. Created by Grandmaster Yasutsune “Anko” Itosu and later popularized by his student Gichin Funakoshi, the Pinan kata are known in the Shotokan style as Heian- no-kata. They incorporate a wide variety of stances and techniques designed to develop your mind and strengthen your body. The Pinan katas are often thought of as training methods for beginners or children and are hence undervalued by more experienced karateka. The main reason for the katas being viewed this way is the fact that they were first established at the time Itosu was introducing Karate to the Okinawan schools. Some say that the Pinans are mealy watered down versions of the advanced kata and were developed solely for children. If this were the case then why did Itosu also teach the Pinans to his adult students? It is far more likely that Itosu had developed the Pinans over a period of time and meant for them to be a synthesis of the best methods being practised in the Shuri region. When karate was introduced to the Okinawan schools the Pinans would be the natural choice because they are relatively short. This is probably the only reason they were selected and has nothing to do with the effectiveness of techniques contained within them.
