USJJF BOOK - GOSHIN JUTSU SELF-DEFENSE
Now available in English Language..!!
The term Goshin Jutsu refers to the art of self-defense. It is therefore an open concept and which is adaptable to any time and circumstance. While it is true that in Japan "Goshin Jutsu" as such is a relatively modern definition (approximately a century old) the old Koryu in the past used more often other terms such as "Shinken Shobu" (real combat), "Shobu" " etc.
At present, a part of the Japanese martial arts program is to a greater or lesser extent dedicated to the Goshin Jutsu. Many of the new schools of jujutsu (Gendai Jujutsu, western or modern jujutsu) base their structure on the Japanese Goshin Jutsu.
There are several ways to study the Goshin Jutsu effectively, for example in the traditional way as in the past through serious and formal study of the Kata, making combat applications in rows or circles, putting strategy and technique into practice in front of several adversaries, with corporal protections to simulate in the most real way a violent aggression, working the psychological aspect and situations of blockage and stress etc.
Whatever the study method of Goshin Jutsu, it should always seek realism, avoid frills and impossible techniques. Both authors have been training for more than 30 years in Japanese martial arts and also self-defense.
In this work a brief exposition of our personal study is made with the basic techniques of easy application and this is done with the main objective of informing about this type of work and increasing the technical knowledge of the readers.
No experience is necessary to carry out these techniques. We have dispensed with the Japanese technical nomenclature to make it easier for everyone to understand the descriptions.
At the beginning of each chapter a brief historical review is attached, explaining the origin and evolution of the different types of aggression, as well as some fundamentals and technical concepts.
In future works, we will conduct studies with more advanced and complex techniques, aimed at police, military and teachers of personal defense. We want you to enjoy this Book and to know that our schools and our work are available to all of you.
This Book is a Training Resource for the USJJF National Systems - United States Ju-Jitsu ® and USA Jiu-Jitsu..!!
