Japanese Jujitsu is the classical root art from which both Judo and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu were derived. Where Judo focuses primarily on throwing and competition sport, and BJJ emphasizes ground grappling, traditional Jujitsu is a comprehensive system: it includes strikes, joint locks, throws, ground control, and weapons defense. The curriculum is broader, with an emphasis on practical self-defense in a variety of scenarios rather than a single competitive format.
