The art of Jiu Jitsu, or more precisely the multitude of different, related styles that come together under this collective term, offers a fascinating and varied story. Since the beginning of the 20th century, this has not only been limited to Japan, but spans the entire globe. Based on international specialist literature as well as several research stays in Japan, this book sheds light on the development of Jiu Jitsu for the first time in German - however not from the nostalgic glorified point of view of martial artists - but from the scientific point of view of historians.
The Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu that has emerged from it since 1917 and the Ju-Jutsu that emerged in Germany from 1968 are also examined intensively. Suitable for all athletes who practice Japanese Jiu Jitsu / Jūjutsu, German Ju-Jutsu or Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, regardless of their association membership.
Please note: The book is only available in German.
