THE MINIMUM YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE HISTORY OF JIU-JITSU IN BRAZIL: The Jiu-Jitsu implementation

Are you sure you know the origin of Brazilian jiu-jitsu? Who told you the story you know? does he also know the story or did he just reproduce what someone told him? I would venture to say that 97% of jiu-jitsu teachers and masters do not know the true history of jiu-jitsu. Is that you? Will you still not know the history of the sport you practice? There are several currents that defend the most varied theories, among them, those who believe that jiu-jitsu emerged in India, those who credit China, and another current that vigorously defends that jiu-jitsu is the creation of “Uncle Hélio" . The fact is that researchers of the highest standing and people who dominate the notorious knowledge have confused over time with the true history of jiu-jitsu in Brazil and in the world. This text brings some evidence collected by researchers from the group of Goshinjutsukan study over more than 20 years of research on the history of jiu-jitsu and its implementation in Brazil.
