Note - Kano's approach to the development of Judo and the study of Jujitsu is illustrated in the following extract from Watanabe and Avakian, "The Secrets of Judo" (1960, p35-36) regarding the discovery of kuzushi or the principle of unbalancing the opponent, Professor Kano reporting his discovery said:
Mr. Iikubo was over fifty years old at the time, but he was still strong, and I used to work with him often. Although I practiced my technique industriously, I could never vie with him. I think it was about 1885 that I found, while practicing randori (free exercise) with him, that the techniques I tried were extremely effective. Usually it ahd been he who threw me. Now, instead of being thrown, I was throwing him with increasing regularity. I could do this despite the fact that he was of the Kito-ryu school and was especially adept at throwing techniques.
This apparently surprised him, and he was upset over it for quite a while. What I had done was quite unusual. But it was the result of my study of how to break the posture of the opponent... I told Mr Iikubo about this, explaining that the throw should be applied after one has broken the opponent's posture. Then he said to me: 'This is right. I am afraid I have nothing more to teach you. From now on, you should continue your study with younger men. I will no longer practice with you.' And he has refrained from practicing with me since. Soon afterward, I was initiated in the mystery of the Kito-ryo jujitsu and received all his books and manuscripts of the school.
Too little, too late, Tantalion. Had you posted that you had even heard of Kito Ryu jujitsu before I had to billboard it up here you wouldn't look like such an ass. Go on and quote whatever you like after the fact.
Anytime you're ready for more humble pie, just let me know.
I just wanted to make sure your old ass understood who knows what. Either you know, or you don't. Sure, you'll say that those things existed now after I posted it. But by posting that nonsense above you tried to lead people to believe that Kano created Judo and came up with kuzushi. The term kuzushi and the concept were coined and practiced before Kano's birth. Don't play it off like you knew that now. The equivalent of what you said is like saying Bruce Lee created wing chun because he brought it openly to the states.
As I said this slice of humble pie will be your second serving from yours truly. Eat it nice and slowly.
Oh yeah, "People here can agree to disagree without having to get into arguments and tirades."
That is yet another lie from the most shamelessly dishonest poster on this entire forum.
Oh really? Let's look at some of the fine writing you contribute here:

Good idea to start to alter your foolish position, champ.
Not one of those comments were directed towards me. Jubaji is a pathetic loser no matter who he converses with. Pitiful cowards will always project on other people. Especially over the internet where he can beat his chest and guzzle sake until he thinks he's funny enough to type.
