Should i learn judo or jujitsu. i am a male 34 year only slightly fit?

You need to ask yourself what your goals are and match the style to those goals. There are competition-based martial arts and others that are geared to street-based, reality self-defense. In all styles I would imagine you would get fit, but there are some more than others that do this. Also it is not only the style, but the school and the instructors. Capabilities vary widely depending on individual instructors. By way of disclaimer, I do Krav Maga and am over 60 and get in better shape every day. I train in Krav Maga at least 4 hours per week.

Is Japanese jujitsu better for a big heavy person than Brazilian jujitsu?

Asked by TheQking

Japanese Ju jutsu involves neutralizing an enemy while usually unarmed or lightly armed because you can't punch through a samurai's armor techniques were developed around the principle of using an attacker's energy against them using throws leg sweeps pins & joint locks so even a unarmed person could still trip or throw a samurai to the ground & stab him or snap a arm choke or strangle him to death. Brazilian Ju Jutsu came from samurai who left Japan due to the arts dying out (Guns!)they conbined Brazilian wresting with Ju jutsu to create a new fighting form . In Bjj you can fight on your back or get your enemy on their back or others positions to lock choke pin or snap a leg or arm off. (Take note in Bjj you are mostly on the ground not standing.)

How many years to get a blue belt in jiujitsu?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

In my jujitsu (Goshin Jujitsu) we are graded every three months so bearing the belt system in mind:

White, Yellow, Orange, Green, Blue, Brown 1st Stripe, Brown 2nd Stripe, Brown 3rd Stripe, Black, Black 1st Dan-10th Dan.

I'd say about 18 months (1 year and 6 months).

Do you have to do any other form of martial arts before jujitsu?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No, jujitsu is a form of martial arts and the only training you'd have to do is if you wanted to get higher up in your martial arts status for jujitsu.

Answer:

Depending on the order you learn martial arts in you may pick up "bad habits" that the new style will have to eradicate before you can properly learn the new skills. As a consequence, as an example, the locks you learn in aikido will have to be unlearned or at least suppressed in jujitsu. Do not think that your new teacher will be impressed with how well you've learned to do things wrong.

Is hapkido any good for self defense or is judo better or jujitsu?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Any of the three can be effective for self defense. Hapkido and Jujitsu are similar in some respects, and of course Judo was derived from Jujitsu.

As a second degree black belt in judo I would say that either of the first two would be better because I believe they both involve learning to block strikes and kicks. A two-time national judo champion and martial arts legend in California felt that free-style wrestling was the most practical because fights usually end up on the ground.

Is Brazilian jujitsu the same as karate?

Asked by Wiki User

While they are both martial arts and subscribe to many of the same philosophies, they differ in their primary focus. Karate focus is on striking and hitting. Ju jitsu concentrates on grappling.

These martial arts have their place in a sports venue, but they are not very effective self-defense systems unless you are an advanced practitioner. The best self-defense systems are non-traditional eclectic systems that utilize gross motor skills. All the traditional arts rely on very well trained fine motor skills. But fine motor skills in an average person degrade more and more under high stress, fast paced, self-defense situations. Fine motor skills take years to learn. Gross motor skills are the motor skills you learned as a young child, and are optimized in high stress self-defense situations. If you want to spend years learning a traditional art, one of the better choices is Japanese (as opposed to Brazilian) Jujitsu. You spend a lot of time on the ground in Brazilian Jujitsu, and that's not wise if you find yourself facing more than one opponent.

Should do jujitsu after getting new tattoo?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I would not recommend it, all of the rubbing could cause the tattoo to peel early and scrape off all of the scabs. This means that you will have to go back in to get it recolored after it has been healed fully. You should lay low for at least 13 days.-Shocker

If you are going to take WTF Tae Kwon Do Hapkido and Brazilian Jiujitsu then should you take Wing Chun or ITF Tae Kwon Do and please say why?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

An educated answer to this question is not a simple "yes" or "no." What "should" you do implies a desired outcome. What that outcome is for you might be different than others. Studying multiple systems tends to broaden your awareness and experience, but typically does not create greater skill in the long run. Compare it to a construction company spending time and money to building several foundations with no walls instead of one large solid foundation and then proceed to construct walls and ceilings to form the growing levels. If you keep changing contractors, architects, and floor plans, you waste time starting over, and repeating steps before you have even completed the first, most important step.

It should first be understood that there is no such thing as "WTF Taekwondo." Taekwondo is the national Martial Art of South Korea, and is also their national sport. There is a difference between the knowledge and skills that have been solidified in an official curriculum as approved by the Kukkiwon (World Taekwondo Headquarters in Seoul, Korea), and the sport of Taekwondo, which is a game based on some skills contained within the art of self defense. Rules for competition will vary from one tournament to the next, and between major associations who host their own tournaments. Each of these associations can trace their roots back to one of the original 5 Kwans (schools) of post WWII Korea, and they have their own curriculum which might differ in some specific details.

Conversely, the WTF is not a teaching organization, and has no curriculum of its own. The WTF is a sport governing body, and while many people still incorrectly call their system "WTF Taekwondo," this is a misnomer. Regardless of what your Taekwondo school or association teaches in regards to Taekwondo self defense, where you compete, and what rules are enforced is a separate issue.

If you are studying any from any legitimate school of Taekwondo, it is not necessary to switch to a different association provided you are getting quality instruction from a qualified Master. There are inherently Hapkido techniques and grappling (Yudo) within the Taekwondo curriculum, so unless your instruction comes from a source that focused on sports, or was lacking, the Hapki techniques should be there. However, "Hapkido" is a stand-alone art that resembles the same content of Taekwondo with less emphasis on kicks as the primary weapon. One does not need to study both, unless those elements are missing. Then it might be more advantageous to find a school that already contains everything in one coherent curriculum.

Learning too many systems can be confusing to the mind and reflexes, and most various systems have a strategic approach to self defense that does not agree with, or compliment the others. Therefore, time spent training in a new system might be a complete disconnect from most of what is taught in the initial system learned. The phrase "A jack of all trades, and Master of none" applies here. If that is what you want, then studying a variety of systems might please you. If you are seeking to be highly skilled and proficient, then the expert advice is to Master one system that is in itself well-rounded. Later in your career, you will know better what additional training (if any) would benefit you, what would just be a repeat, and what would actually be counter-productive to a goal of being a highly skilled Martial Artist.
