The Budokwai Jiu-Jitsu Film Recorded in 1949

Another great video showing the history of Jiu-Jitsu from the Kodokan. Dr. Kanō Jigorō should be recognized and honored for his life's work!

    Thanks for uploading this, I finally get to see the "daisharin" technique shown in Sacripanti's book. It looks like Koizumi was into Tenshin shin'yo ryu when he founded the Budokwai, and then converted to Kodokan judo a couple of years later. This would explain why the kata show here look very different, as he probably still didn't know about the official forms in detail.

    Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu looks just like Judo, because it is Basically Just Judo. When Mitsuyo Maeda, a.k.a. "Conde Koma", began teaching Carlos Gracie in Belem do Para, Brazil in 1917, he was teaching Jigoro Kano's Jiu-Jitsu direct from the Kodokan in Japan. The name "Judo" was not popularized until 1925. Mitsuyo Maeda was a Kodokan Judo instructor whose specialty was ground fighting (newaza). This type of ground-only fighting is often referred to as Kosen Judo, or High School Judo, because it was popularized in Japanese High Schools as a form of interscholastic wrestling. Kosen Judo rules allowed direct transition to newaza, enabling scenarios where one less skilled competitor could drag the other down to the ground (a tactic now known as "pulling-guard" in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu). There is absolutely no question that the Gracie family demonstrated great skill and marketing acumen by promoting "Gracie Jiu-Jitsu" or Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu to the masses. Helio Gracie's loss to Kodokan Judoka Masahiko Kimura was advertised as a "moral victory". More importantly, the Gracies sponsored the original Ultimate Fighting Championships when the world was begging for a professional combat sport with more depth than Boxing and more realism than the WWF. However, there is now a generation of Jiu-Jitsu students who only know half the story. Worse yet, they are often paying enormous prices for the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu name only to learn a subset of Jigoro Kano's original Jiu-Jitsu techniques and teaching methods. The Judo world has not been without fault too. High ranking judoka often looked down on the new popular MMA world due to Judo's Olympic status. As a result, most Judo schools have been over-emphasizing the throwing techniques within Judo due to pressure from the International Olympic Comittee to increase ratings on TV for the brief moments when Olympic Judo would receive air time. Similarly, there is a generation of Jiu-Jitsu students, and now instructors, who incorrectly think Judo is nothing but a standing sport.

    @@danle3181 "styles"... it was a more thought out style rather than a tested one, and it became a free style, each competitor creates their own and is selected in a NATURAL SELECTION. "Methods" It was self defense method, through 100% combined and choreographed drills...it became 90% sparring, and with the culture of testing oneself with other arts... they were "secret" training only for elderly students who had been training for 50 years, It became for young people in their physical prime...It was a fight not to fight, it became a fight to fight... BJJ change THE ENTIRE WORLD ... NO ART WAS THE SAME after BJJ... ALL OF THEM CHANGED... BJJ is an art that not only influenced his own circle of practitioners, but even the perception of what works or not works has changed of how an art should be trained, 90% of what they thought GOOD STUFF, if it started to be perceived as TRASH... "BJJ is a shame" Shame was believe in Hollywood...having destroyed arts such as Catch and Judo, and not having done in 100 years what BJJ did in the 30s.

    This is old school Judo but you can clearly see the link to the original Gracie Jiu Jitsu. The use of the guard, the mount and even knee on belly which they called uki gatame. You don't see these techniques to the same extent in modern Judo. Even some of the self defence techniques from the kime no kata can still be seen in the Gracie Jiu Jitsu self defence syllabus. Fascinating video, thanks for sharing.

    If you think like this, it would be correct to think that bjj is another form of judo. It is not, it became something else. Same goes for judo regarding jujutsu. Judo came from jujutsu, bjj came from judo. It doesn't mean they are the same.

    This is Judo. Jujutsu throws are similar but with most styles, the throws were designed to break or dislocate something and not allow a proper break fall dropping them on their face or head. But there were many systems with different methods...
