Shin Shin Jujitsu ?

[Dale Lackey]

Anyone familiar with this personally? Probably should be in the ecletic arts, but I wasn't sure. :bow:

It was developed by Leo Wilson from a mixture of judo, karate and kung fu. The main practioners are members of the Midori Yama martial arts group.

So, not really jujutsu, then?

Not by our definition but I'm not willing to get into the "a rose is a rose" argument. Most of the folks I've met who practice it are primarily Karateka. If it works for them, no skin off my nose, just not what we would consider traditional or tradition based Jujutsu.

Is this it?

Taki Ryu SSJ is a terrific art that blends fighting on foot into takedowns and groundwork. With the help of Grandmaster George Dillman and the pressure points that he teaches, we have been able to not only simplify many of our techniques and make them very effective for virtually any size person, but we have been able to make many of our techniques as lethal or non lethal as the situation may call for

I think that's another Karate based Jujutsu system. There wasn't any mention of Midori Yama on his website. Most of the dojo that teach Shin Shin also teach Shin Nagare Karate.
