Jujitsu is a Japanese strategy of combat, relying on skill and technique rather than strength and agression. Judo is the practice of the “Way” of "Ju" or suppleness. It’s the alignment of one’s body, mind and spirit through precise effort. Master Okazaki referred to his style of Jujitsu as "Judo" because he knew it was also a path to greater health and self-completion.

Mastering Danzan Ryu demands systematic, slow and purposeful practice... cultivating both control and suppleness. The Japanese word “Judo” can be translated as the “the path of nonresistance.” - the principle of flow and force that allows the weak to overcome the strong and the seeker to find ultimate truth.
