How did Martial Arts come into being

Different Martial Arts

After a long period of war, a mysterious martial art called Ninjutsu came. At first, the technique aims to teach the warriors to defend themselves. Years passed by, it evolved as an aggressive approach to kill the warriors’ enemies.

After Ninjutsu, other techniques were formed: the Aikido, Judo, Jujutsu, and Karate and many more.

The history of Japan had a long period of bloodshed and cruelty. For 300 years, generals, warlords and family clans were eager to win the supremacy in Japan. The two classes of warriors in Japan, namely the Samurai and Ninja, took part in shaping the future of the country.



The Samurai came from an elite class of military that follows the code of loyalty. The Samurai follows eight virtues of the code: Justice, Courage, Mercy, Honesty, Self-control, Honor and Loyalty.

On the other hand, the Shinobi was the complete opposite of Samurai, Ninja’s forte is on ambush and spying. They also do not follow any rules. The only code that they have was to get their reward money after finishing the job.

Contrary to the belief of people, the Ninja did not come from the lowest social class. Some Ninja went from the elite class of Samurai who lost their masters in a war that chose to become a Ninja instead of committing Seppuku.  Some of them came from the highest rank, their forte was just for secret operations.




Do Japanese Martial Arts Have a Main Core?

There are three main categories of arts of sword fighting, the Kenjutsu, Kendo and Iaijutsu. These techniques were the core of the Japanese martial arts.

Kenjutsu was a technique which teaches devastating striking methods. Either Shinobi or Samurai can use this method. This technique originated decades of decades ago. This method also focuses on Dai Sho or the Katana and Wakizashi.

Another core is Kendo or the way of the sword; this method technically teaches discipline to Samurai. On the other hand, Iaijutsu prepares and illustrates how the warriors should act during the actual battle.
