Summary
Details

This vintage book contains a simple, beginner-friendly guide to Jiu-Jitsu. Jujutsu, also referred to as Jujitsu or Jiu-Jitsu, is a Japanese style of martial art and close combat that concentrates on defeating an armed opponent both with or without a short weapon. Ju means soft or flexible, while Jutsu means art or technique and refers to the use of your opponent's force against themselves. This volume contains useful illustrations and simple, clear instructions for the positions and manoeuvres treated, as well we chapters and explanations on general principles and keeping your body in shape. This introductory guide will appeal to those looking to begin their jujutsu path, and it is not to be missed by collectors of vintage literature of this ilk. Contents include: Physical Culture , The Muscles of the Human Body, Ready Position , Movement , Lesson I , Lesson II , Lesson III , etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.
