KitÅ-ryÅ« (èµ·å€’æµ) is a traditional school (koryÅ«) of the Japanese martial art of jujutsu. Its syllabus comprises atemi-waza (striking techniques), nage-waza (throwing techniques), kansetsu-waza (joint locking techniques) and shime-waza (choking techniques). Many of these techniques are performed while in full armor.

Origin

KitÅ RyÅ« is translated as "the school of the rise and fall." It is similar to forms of "aikijutsu," ^[1] including the principle of "ki" (energy) and aiki (KitÅ RyÅ« teaches that "When two minds are united, the stronger controls the weaker"...). Equally, it uses principles such as "kuzushi no ri" or "breaking of balance" now associated with modern judo.

Base art of Judo

Jigoro Kano trained in KitÅ-ryÅ« and derived some of the principles that were to form the basis of modern judo from this style. Judo's Koshiki-no-kata is based on KitÅ-ryÅ«.^[1] Since Kano Jigoro got the KitÅ-ryÅ« densho from his Sensei,^[2] Judo is the current KitÅ-ryÅ« official successor.
