Overwhelmingly the samurai studied, practiced, and perfected jiu-jitsu. Jiu jitsu has many different and distinct schools, and this is a natural result of the diffusion of jiu jitsu throughout medieval Japan.
Many (if not all) samurai were very proficient with the spear, the bow and arrow, horsemanship and especially swordsmanship.
Today in Japan the study of the way of the sword is called Iaido. High level Iaido practitioners are amazing at what they do, and quite a sight to see with your own eyes.

Both Jigoro Kano, who founded Judo, and Ueshiba Morihei (O sensei) who founded Aikido were looking for Martial Arts styles that didn't cause so much physical injury. This is because practicing jiu jitsu in early 20th century Japan was the cause of a lot of broken bones and other parts of your body.
