Ju-Jitsu: (Jujutsu,
Jiu Jitsu, Jiujutsu)(literally "the gentle
fighting art") is an empty handed extension of the
sword fighting art of the Japanese Samurai. The actual ancient
art is called Aiki Jujitsu. This involves joint locks, throws,
strikes, blocks, and chokes. Aiki Jujitsu went through some
changes in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Jigoro Kano removed
many of the dangerous techniques to create Judo ("the
gentle way"). This allowed students to practice full
speed against resisting opponents, but with far fewer injuries
that happened when Jujitsu was practiced at full speed. About
the same time, Morehei Uyeshiba took a different set of techniques
out to create Aikido. (A jitsu is a fighting style. A do
is a way.) About the same time, a Korean named Yong Suhl
Choi combined Jujitsu techniques with the kicks and punches
so prevalent in Korean martial arts to create Hapkido. (Hapkido
is the Korean pronunciation of the Kanji that in Japanese
is pronounced Aikido. (Resource:Stanford
