history

Ju-Jutsu was created in 1969 by the German Dan College . Initially, the new sport was housed under the umbrella of the German Dan College and the German Judo Federation . On October 20, 1990, the German Ju-Jutsu Association was founded as an independent association and has been the umbrella organization of Ju-Jutsu ever since. The association has been a member of the German Sports Confederation (today: German Olympic Sports Confederation ) since 1991 .

On November 6th, 2004 it was decided at a general meeting to include Jiu-Jitsu clubs in the association in the future. This also included its own Jiu-Jitsu examination regulations. This makes the association one of several umbrella organizations for the martial art Jiu Jitsu.

The German Ju-Jutsu Association has also been authorized to represent the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (Ne-Waza / ground fight) discipline in the DOSB since 2014 . Ground fighting has always been a big part of ju-jutsu. In competitive sports, this discipline asserted itself internationally at the JJIF and thus a promotion and representation of these sports groups began in the DJJV.
