Basic Description of Aiki Jujutsu
One of the principal features of Aiki Jujutsu in the beginning phases is its emphasis on waiting
for an attack to be initiated, thus the system may be considered defensive
in nature. The basic system consists of simple kicks, blocks and punches
that reflect the traditional jujutsu systems. The main character of Aiki Jujutsu
is joint locking and throwing and smooth fluid motion.
