Since this martial art was originally developed for samurai, Japanese jujitsu is suitable for real-life combat situations. It is often taught in a very traditional setting where discipline is greatly valued. Brazilian jiu - jitsu, on the other hand, is primarily used for sport with a primary focus on grappling.
The Japanese jiu-jitsu is a full combat system , it includes striking.. throws/takedowns... submissions and joint manipulation..self defense techniques against armed and unarmed opponents...it predates judo and is from the hand to hand combat of the Samurai Class in Japans past but only at its purest form and i stress this because outside of a ...
Japanese Jiu Jitsu mostly focuses on throwing opponents, joint manipulation, striking and blocking and some chokes and strangulations – all from a self-defence perspective. Some styles also include traditional Japanese weapons in their training.
Japanese Jujitsu is taught everywhere. Before BJJ became popular it was just called Jujitsu (or Jiu-jitsu) I discovered last week there's a Japanese Jiujitsu dojo like an hour and 15 minutes from me. But it's in a pretty small touristy city up north in the mountains, so I wouldn't expect to find any great fighters there.
Also, don't know if I mentioned it yet but BRAZILIAN Jiu Jitsu and GRACIE Jiu Jitsu are modern constructs coined in the nineties to promote and differentiate what Rorion introduced and claimed credit for creating on behalf of his daddy. It was and still is known simply as Jiu Jitsu over most of that country then and now.

Mar 17, 2014. #1. Im curios to know why there are no fighters with Japanese jujitsu background, I mean I reckon it should have all the elements that judo,bjj and even aikido has since thats where these arts come from which in a way should make it a more well rounded style of grappling that has standup throws and groundwork.
There is no "Japanese Jiu-Jitsu" If its authentic, its called Koryu Bujutsu, of which Jujutsu is a subset ...
I was in a Jiu-Jitsu class taught by Rick Davis (the old guy that Melvin Guillard Ko'd in May of 2006). Rick is a black belt in Japanese jiu-jitsu and a brown belt in BJJ. He taught us a situation where if someone mounted you in the streets to keep your arms close like if you were mounted in BJJ and to keep your hands "clenched."
First things first, before Ryo has a go at me. I realise that JJJ is a misnomer and true traditional japanese jiu-jitsu (i.e. what the samurai learnt) only really exists in Japan amongst a small group of people that keep it alive for cultural reasons. I use the term simply as a catch-all for styles of jiu-jitsu that aren't BJJ.
