JU JITSU CLASS MONTREAL - TORONTO
Jiu Jitsu is a method of defense and offense without weapons in personal encounters. For a few centuries in Japan, it was practiced as a military art, together with fencing, archery and the use of the spear. Jiu Jitsu is not a contest of muscular strength. Nor is its prime purpose to maim or kill, but merely to incapacitate one's opponent for the time being by means of simple tricks and holds. Jiu Jitsu tricks and holds are very simple.
A thorough knowledge of them, gained only with constant practice, should develop in one a feeling of strong self-confidence. This confidence causes the Jiu Jitsu expert to react almost instinctively in the event of a sudden attack and to maneuver any situation to his own advantage.
Women can become proficient in Jiu Jitsu. In many tricks, the stature of a woman, the softness of her arms and the sharpness of her heels are exceedingly potent weapons. Moreover, women need Jiu Jitsu.
