IDO MOVEMENT FOR CULTURE

This paper presents a reflection on the methodology of teaching modern jūjutsu throws. Taking this research issue up by the two authors was caused by their concern for the proper standard of teaching throws, based on the traditional educational system and adapted to current teaching objectives of this martial art.
Based on the results of their own studies the authors try and answer the following questions: What was the rationale behind removing the vast majority of throws from the curricula of old jūjutsu schools? What should the modern jūjutsu throw teaching methodology look like? What teaching aims should a teacher of jūjutsu martial art realise?
The research problem and the research objectives which stem from it pertain to the educational circumstances adopted from the sport discipline of jūdō and transferred to the curricula of the modern jūjutsu martial art.
The main method used is participating observation, the analysis of throw teaching methods in the sport discipline of jūdō and in the martial art of modern jūjutsu, complemented by comparative analysis.
The authors arrived at the following conclusions: in the throw teaching system of modern jūjutsu uncritical copying of teaching methodology appropriated from the sport discipline of jūdō took place, similar rules regarding throw teaching were adopted with their substantive content (the same throw techniques), as a training model in jūjutsu they have been multiplied and copied for several decades by the vast majority of jūjutsu masters. The system of teaching and selected jūdō throws were transferred to modern jūjutsu curricula while slowly undergoing the process of uniformisation and standardisation.
This interference within the modern jūjutsu curricula greatly diminished and limited throwing techniques, it did not allow for throw variety or other method of education, adapted to the conditions of out-of-sport confrontation. The authors believe that the methodology of teaching throws should be adapted to the goals and specificity of jūjutsu martial art. Along with the overhaul of curricula combat techniques should be augmented with new throws created for this martial art. In this article the authors are trying to present how effective throw teaching in jūjutsu should look, based on tactical solutions in out-of-sport confrontation.
