Detail: Jujitsu or Jiujitsu has its origins dating back at least 2500 years from exercises practiced in India, which spread to China. Legend has it that the arts developed for a time in China's Shao-lin temples, before traveling to Japan. In Japan this system, a mixture of striking, catching and healing arts would be called Yawara. This system that would evolve along with the indigenous martial arts of Japan would become Jujitsu, “To conquer by yieldingâ€. Or “The gentle art†as we know it today. Ju = suppleness Jitsu = art Jujitsu was taught exclusively to the Royal class of Japan including the elite soldiers the Samurai. The art would thrive in the Elite circles of Japan until the end of the Samurai area in the late 1800’s. Much of Jujitsu then fell into disrepute; unemployed ex Samurai began teaching for money anyone who wanted to learn. Contests were fought for money often to the death. While many of the smaller Ryu (styles) faded into obscurity several classical systems remained.
