Striking is Essential in the Japanese Art of Jujutsu (Jiu-Jitsu) #jujitsu #atemi #jiujitsu #karate

I agreed. I believe being a skilled striker as well as skilled thrower and grappler is very important in self defense. You may be in a situation where you can’t throw or grapple.

Ju jutsu and karate are actually the same art. They were separated when they were made into sports.
