Jujitsu Westchester Jujitsu Westchester: White Plains, New Rochelle, Yonkers
Jujitsu originated in the early days of the Samurai in Japan for warriors to protect themselves when unarmed. Over 1,000+ years of existence, many styles and splinter groups of Jujitsu formed, and in the 20th century Jujitsu was modernized into Judo and Aikido. Tremendous variety exists among the styles, from Brazilian Jujitsu (of MMA fame) emphasizing grappling on the ground to Daito Ryu Aiki Jujitsu more closely resembling Aikido. Jujitsu tends to focus on destructive technique early on, minimal use of katas, and uses competition in some instances. Weapons practice may or may not be involved and exercise tends to be aerobic.
