内容简介

Originally devised by the samurai as an empty-handed means of defence against an armed enemy, Ju-Jitsu has developed into a practical art. Cultivating mind, body and spirit, Ju-Jitsu combats the stress of modern society and strengthens personal health and character. Introducing Ju-Jitsu, its philosophy and history, this guide advises on how to get started and describes basic techniques. It explains how to find a club and a good teacher for you or your children and gives clear instructions on breakfalling, stances, blocking, striking, locking, kicking and punching. Outlining ground-fighting techniques and use of weapons, it explains dojo etiquette, how to warm up and down, how to prevent and treat injuries, and gives rules of competition.
