It can also be spelled “jujitsu” or “jiujitsu” as older translations were not as established as they are today. It is sometimes called Japanese jujutsu to distinguish it from one of its derivatives: Brazilian jujutsu. Jujutsu was originally one aspect of martial arts used by the samurai of medieval Japan. The general concept of Jujutsu covers any way that the human body can be used as a weapon. Each family, or clan, had a particularstyle of unarmed combat in which they would train. This naturally led to a wide variety of arts called “jujutsu” that involve different amounts of striking, throwing, locking, and close quarters ground fighting
