Atemi Ju-Jitsu is a modern martial art of ancient origin created in France in 1944 by Bernard Pariset† under the influence of Jigoro Kano's student Mikonosuke Kawaishi. The Pariset family is commonly referred to as the 'French Gracie', after having developed their own Ju-Jitsu style learning directly from Kawaishi in the 1930s. Atemi Ju-Jitsu includes Atemi-Waza (Striking techniques), Nage-Waza (Throwing techniques) and Katame-Waza (Grappling techniques). Its practice is very much oriented towards Kihon and Randori, both standing (Tachi-Waza) and on the ground (Ne-Waza). It combines ancient techniques, developed by Samurais to defend themselves against armed and unarmed oppeonents on the battlefield in feudal Japan, with modern techniques, found in martial arts such as Judo, Karate, Aikido and Savate. It works well with single opponents, but its effectiveness is maximal with multiple opponents. Atemi Ju-Jitsu puts a lot of emphasis on Tai Sabaki and Kuzushi to break the opponent's balance, combined with locks, throws and chokes/strangulations. The use of atemi is particularly important in this system both as a mean to create the Kuzushi and strike vital points to neutralize the opponent, and prepare the transition to other techniques. It is coming from traditional Nihon Jujutsu systems such as Kyūshin Ryū, Takenouchi-ryū, Kitō-ryū, Yagyū Shingan-ryū, Yōshin-ryū and Tenjin Shin'yō-ryū (most of which were having extensive use of Atemi). It has also benefited from the influence of more recent systems such as Daitō-ryū Aiki-jūjutsu and Wadō-Ryū. This traditional form of Ju-Jitsu is still actively practiced today in Europe by Daniel Pariset (brother and 8th Dan) and Eric Pariset (son and 6th Dan), and in the Americas by Julien Durand (instructor and 4th Dan). Ju-Jitsukas are asked to maintain a balance between all elements of the system in order to build a complete martial artists able to face multiple situations, multiple opponents and multiple types of weapons.
