sorry mate im a little confused , ur maybe misleading people here , this is not jiu jitsu, JJ has no strikes involved at all in its techniques .. in ur video theres plenty of throws followed by some digs.. maybe you mean Ju- Jitsu which is like jiu jitsu... he has a red belt on him.. very few jiu jitsu red belts in the world today.. it would be well known if there was a Jiu Jitsu red belt in the UK, iv never heard of him..

He talking about Jiujitsu as in Japanese Jiujitsu or Ju Jitsu, states the name of the style and all. I don't think he's trying to fool people into thinking its Brazilian JiuJitsu or anything.

i know he stated the style, but i mean its not "Jiu Jitsu" you get me? maybe he should call the club by its style , "Jukoshin Ryu club"? maybe im wrong just my opinion... but i know id defo get confused if i went to the class thinking its going to be BJJ and then we learn pressure points at the back of the ears and using strikes.. not disrespecting him or his martial art style, just saying should be more specific

You are wrong.......when did all jiu jitsu suddenly become bjj.at no stage did I say that it was bjj.that's why I included the link to show the type of jiu jitsu.I included the link because it showed the head of the organization demonstrating some of the techniques.The RED belt means that in the organization he is the "Soke" or head of the style.a 10th Dan Grade.

K.Byrne_BJJ

is this Japanese Jiu jitsu or ju- jitsu, or a totally new grappling style? see only reason i say that is because iv never heard of any other jiu jitsu styles other than Japanese JJ, Brazilian JJ or Ju-Jitsu,

jiu jitsu means the gentle art or gentle way, in ur video there was strikes so i was thinking it cant be "jiu jitsu".. i know what a red belt is... thanks for explaining

I think you are the only one who is confused here. Maybe you need to look at this thread

Nowhere does he mention BJJ, it is pretty clear he is talking about some kind of 'traditional' JJ.

Conor,

Best of luck with your new club. If you are in Galway and feel like doing a bit of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu feel free to call up to us (website in my signature).

In around 1600 there were over 2000 Japanese jujutsu ryu.
Old schools of Japanese jujutsu include:

Daito-ryu aiki-jujutsu
Hontai Yoshin-ryu
Kashima Shin-ryū
Kitō-ryū
Kukishin-ryū
Kyushin Ryu
Sekiguchi Shinshin-ryu
Sosui****su-ryu
Takenouchi-ryu
Tatsumi-ryu
Tenjin Shinyo-ryu
Yagyu Shingan Ryu
Yoshin Ryu

Some of the largest post-reformation (founded post 1905) jujutsu schools include (but are certainly not limited to these in that there are hundreds (possibly thousands), of new branches of "jujutsu"):

Danzan Ryu
German Ju-Jutsu
Goshinbudo
Hakko Ryu
Shorinji Kan Jiu Jitsu (The Jitsu Foundation)
Small Circle JuJitsu

Thanks to wiki

I'm sure JJ people will correct any mistakes there.....

of all the things to get hung up about in JJ,
how its spelt has to be the silliest.
Good Luck with the club

Damo W list is a list of KORYU schools that as far as I am aware there are only 2 people in Ireland who train in koryu. There are Irish people who train in them abroad.

Highduck, Im on the wrong side of the country but if you need any help let me know.

i think ken you should learn a little bit about martial art history before you cast doubts on someones post in future.Anyone can see its never even suggested that this was anything other than japanese jujitsu,even the style name makes that obvious.BJJ by the way isnt really jj at all,its specialised judo,all jujitsu includes strikes which were then removed(except in some kata) to create kodokan judo.Judo was brought to brazil (still called jujitsu at the time)and taught to the gracies and then gradually developed to specialise on the ground and for match fighting.The strikes in jujitsu are to soften the attacker or break balance for the throw or lock,they arent designed to finish.
