Jiu-Jitsu History: Birth on the Battlefield

Cup Check TV on Instagram: "Jiu Jitsu in history 👇 Jiu Jitsu began in feudal Japan as a battlefield art used by samurai when weapons were lost or broken. Instead of striking, it focused on leverage, balance, and joint control, allowing a smaller fighter to neutralize a stronger, armored opponent using technique rather than brute force. Over time, the art evolved from combat necessity into a structured discipline. Schools refined throws, pins, and submissions, emphasizing efficiency and control.

Steven on Instagram: "Takenouchi-ryu was built for samurai, not sport. Over time, jujutsu became Judo... then modern sport jiu-jitsu. Guard pulling and butt-scooting aren’t accidents they’re products of rules and modern needs. Same roots. Different goals.
