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.
In Westchester County, Jujitsu is available in all the major cities of White
Plains, New Rochelle & Yonkers. Jiu Jitsu in White Plains.
