You will find the origins of Judo and Akido quite connected. Judo helps you understand the flow of the force (please, not starwars, but the 'push'. You know, when others are trying to punch you?) and helps you overcome it with much less effort. It originated as a mean of defense, though it can be offensive too. You learn how to tip other people's balance and make them fall basically, at the same time you learn how to use your strength to much better advantage.

Ju-Jitsu was invented as an un-armed defence system for the Japanese Warriors so they could continue fighting should their weapons be lost or in situations where they would not be allowed
