Nice I trained in Hokutoryu Ju-Jutsu(it's a Finnish style of Ju-Jutsu/Jiu-Jitsu) few years ago, got myself an orange belt and practiced also some Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Then I quit for 2.5 years. Now I started again in BJJ(Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu), my noobie-course ends this month and I will move to train with advanced ppl.emu wrote:feels like ninja stuff and shit karate yoyo and all that has been more popular amongst the nerds latley. must be naruto or something
Hokutoryu(and all "tradiotional" ju-jutsu styles) are really effective in self-defense, but not that much in competition and Brazilian is more competitive style with most of the time focusing to techniques you do in a competition or in a 1on1 situation in the streets.
And yes, Judo was formed baseing to Ju-Jutsu. They just took all "too dangerous" techniques away and put some more softness in it.
I like BJJ and Hokutoryu for they make you do technique, not study some philosophy... Not that they're bad, I think they could be useful, not for me though
And most of the fights occur in bars or clubs. And usually between 01.00 and 05.00 I have been to a couple of fights, some won, most of them lost
And Pauhi, don't be so self-confident, there's always a guy meaner than you
