  • I love it :-)

    

  • The Brits had been occupying parts of China for over a century by the time this was made. The Shanghai Municipal Police Department had the most violent population in the Empire, and they learned Asian skills. The close-in fighting skills of the SMP were used to train the Army, Commandos, etc.

  • Respond to this video...

    We train traditional Jiu Jitsu in Serbia...

    See our videos... 

  • This chick rocks.

  • 1:03 tome nage xD

  • yeah, but can she cook?

  • She could have just given him syphilis, it's just as debilitating.

  • Cool!!!

  • Interesting that most of the moves she shows has been covered in most Karate Schools. Perhaps the techniques were adopted? 

  • and done while wearing heels-wow!!!

  • Imagine how she would sound in bed!!!

  • @mrdubcrazy dude this was filmed in 1931 if the chick is still alive she should be around 115 years old haha

  • @sunreaper2 i still would nah nah!

  • She's pretty cute.

  • I love the tone the women and girls used to speak to going back the generations, the voices were alike and sounded very sharp.

  • I think he wanted to get caught in her "triangle"

  • what a woman

  • If that isnt british humor.........

  • freaking brilliant!

  • Haha that was awesome. I've seen these moves before, but NOT in this context, lol.

  • Jennifer Ellison Grass Sad flaps and i rest my case peace to everyone in the result thankyou loads but breakfalling does not break the force see judo all best danny

  • Jolly good show what

  • My kind of woman! Mean , lean and very nice with it. Cheers, Simon.

  • she's a babe as well as deadly!

  • That's some classy ass-kicking ! Woot!

  • I love watching these old self defense movies. To show a woman overcoming a man back in the 1920's was quite ahead of it's time.

  • nice slip ...:-D

  • I seaaaaaaah, toss the blackguard on his ruddy hind end, wot?

  • They used to be MUCH MORE aggressive in demos than today!

    Except for not breaking his arm - she does everything full force!

  • and also they didnt have a special floor o something similar in the tv set

    each time she throw him ...the man looks really bad.

  • The two most misleading things about this video are

    1. The man is throwing himself forward, forget resisting he is literally throwing his momentum forward the grimacing and landing hard to add dramatic effect

    2. Those throws would take years to learn and master to the point where one could apply them on a large attacker in a real life scenario

    there are no self defense secrets,you want to engage an attacker you must train

  • The move is valid and the timing correct and flawless. Admittedly the guy is adding to demonstrate but the method is fine. If anything the woman could strike the groin with knife hand as well on the first technique.

    There are secrets and training alone will not reveal them,

    Knowledge is improved by study over long periods of time in many countries...

    Throws are quick. in my club a 5 year old that threw his resisting preschool teacher over his shoulder, after 6 months judo.

  • Classic Kano Jujitsu (Judo) taught by Tani and Koizumi Sensei in Budokwai London.

  • These demonstrations are so unrealistic and misleading. Interesting to see they have been happening this way forever. If that guy was posing legitimate resistance none of those would have worked

  • It may work; on gentry of that time.

    It may work on normal people not trained fit attackers.

    A lot of people still do not know how to fall and my experience has been they became disorientated on being thrown and damage easily.

  • That man is tossing his momentum forward falling hard and grimacing to add dramatic effect. If you are small untrained woman your best tactic of self preservation is to remain alert and not put yourself in dangerous positions not have this misconception about your ability to break an opponents base and render an attacker defenseless

  • @MrLucidVoice Yes, that's precisely right. The best course of action is avoiding the fight in the first place. Your assailant may not be as cooperative as the chap who's being thrown about in this video, and if he's armed, have fun. One person's going to end up in the hospital or morgue, and it's likely not going to be him.

  • @MrLucidVoice "Posing legitimate resistance" implies that he know what is going to happen or that her timing is off or technique is flawed. Of course he is a willing uke in this demonstration, but she is not demonstrating fighting tactics like you see in UFC. I'm a seven year jujutsuka and I know first hand that all her techniques will work in the real world, with training, if the opponant is not expecting them and is more serious about causing harm than about their own safety.

  • @MrLucidVoice

    I don't buy that. Resistane to what? Their own momentum?

  • my favorite demonstration^^

  • this is AWESOME, good for them.

    one prob though: i wonder how well these techniques work in, say, a cramped bar, a narrow alley, or a small room full of furniture...

    we don't always have 20 feet of clearance around us in combat situations...

  • Well, if not you can always grab some of the furniture and smack your oponent round the head with it.

  • seems that you haven´t seen well the video...small space chad

  • fucking flappers learn some decency

  • Looking at the vintage of the movie, you can imagine what techniques the british Commandoes and SOE in WWII were trained in...

  • only jujutsu.....

  • Great footage!, thanks for posting it.

  • Thats fantastic!

  • thats nice :D

  • POOR GUY

  • is she still alive if she not some1 tell me how she died

  • Jujutsu women have always kinda kicked as and now we have the film to prove it

  • haha she looks so dainty and and yet is so dangerous

  • Gotta say this is a pretty good demo,especially compared to a lot of the over choreographed,over cooperative ones you see so much of,she doesn't hold back This seems like pretty good shit,This girl seems like she could actually kick some ass..

  • Is it just me or is she kinda hot? ha ha

  • I agree she is pretty hot.

  • Love it. It's like a Kiera Knightley character doing jitsu :D

  • 1:24 "and I nilly" ???

  • Fantastic- and she's wearing heels.

  • Awesome

  • love the sound...

  • My God , she is actually good.. this is a nice posting ....classic technique...Nice.

  • sorry wrong video i thought it said jiu jitsu

  • Bully! Pip pip and all that! I say!

  • The reason this is an appealing video for most people is because the lady is pretty attractive and petite. However, her partner is falling and rolling for her during the throws - pre-arranged. She does practice Ju-jitsu, but this is a demostration with a helpful partner. Nevertheless, Ju-jitsu is a respective martial art.

  • I say, that was rather elegantly done!

  • Dude that some cool shit, some good self defense

  • She looked slightly like winona ryder.

  • I propose that all grappling now be performed in suits instead of gis and rashguards (British accents recommended but not required).

    Stay classy!

  • Indeed, bowler hats should be worn at gradings too!

  • HARD.CORE.

    All woman should watch this.

    GOT AN ABUSIVE BOYFRIEND? THROW THAT MUTAFUKAH!

  • Her partner is helping her with forward rolls, etc. It would be much more difficult to throw a larger person when they really resist.

  • Yes.

    Still dosen't change the fact that she knows what she is doing.

  • that slow motion at the end is awesome

  • I'm supprised they added it as you can see her underwear, I'd think that would be kind of scadalous for the time.

  • If you crossed Merle Oberon with Charles Atlas!

  • girl power!! :D

  • I say! She gave that hooligan a bit of the old "heave-ho", wot? Score one for flappers, eh? Eh?

  • Rather old chap! Rather!

  • Well, the fellow was an absolute cad and a bounder to boot, what?!

  • @CatAtomic99 Yes, quite! Wonderfully said, CatAtomic ol' pal!

  • lol...i love the tea and crumpets demeanor while she kicks that guy's ass.

  • I'm sure i saw her frilly bloomers in the last 10 seconds of that clip.

    What would Mary Whitehouse say? By golly!!

  • She's just so adorable, and so potentially lethal. What a wonderful clip!

  • JUJUTSU - The only correct spelling.

  • this doesnt look far away from judo

  • judo is the sport form of jujitsu i believe.

    btw, i think arguing about the english spelling of a japanese word is pointless.

  • Unless you're referring to "Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu."

  • It's funny...I know spelling it Jujitsu or Jujutsu doesn't matter since it's based on pronunciation, I just can't help but detest the Jujitsu spelling!

    To me it's like someone spelling baseball - like bassball....I would doubt their knowledge in the sport.

    Jujutsu, and the people who use that spelling seem much more mature and traditional. I don't know....

  • Hmmm

    Udekime nage

    Koshi nage

    Hijikime osae

    De Ashi Barai with kick

    Tomoe Nage

  • yeah you re right you can show better effective self defence than many other instructors, the video clip must be from the 40 s, will be glad to learn from that lady if she s still on her feet.:-)

  • early 30's

  • where did he found that video ?

  • damn... in heels too!

  • She is gorgeous ;-)

  • Classic vintage of Jujutsu!!

  • shouldn't he be saying yes MISTRESS, no MISTRESS....I think he said " Im into bruising" she may be a feminist ...but grrrrr..smoking

  • Kano jujutsu?

  • wow thats pretty sexy

  • I am always amazed by the smartitude of comments

  • This woman makes Bas Rutten look like a joke :)

  • OMG I SO WANNA LEARN JU JITSU NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! fucking hell impressive for a women!!

  • OMG I SO WANNA LEARN JU JITSU NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! fucking hell impressive for a women!!

  • and your fighting system of choice is.......

  • ... none, because he's just too goddamn manly for all of them...

  • only brazilian jiujitsu is gay. stand up grappling is ok, but not dryhumping.

  • BJJ is gay??

    it has PROVEN to be the most effective way to DOMINATE any other single fighting style, FACT. making your opinion about as interesting as the noises coming from my ass.

  • just goes to show he does not know what he is talking about so don't bother

    ''stand up grappling''

    this opinion is most likely from a bitter loser who got submitted too many times to count instead of learning something he would rather talk shit.

    btw

    i love the way she did the demo in that proper english voice it was so cute and great

    to present the fact that you don't to be big a strong to be effetive with jujitsu.

  • lol, thanks mate, yeh i love jujitsu myself as much as bjj. it has great self defence tecniques that you'll never see in a cage!!

    Shame people are forgetng about this in favour of only mma.....

  • Tome-Nagi! 1:06! go jujitsu!

  • I really like these types of old self defense films.

  • haha slow mo old school UPSKIRT haha. Tight shit dude ju jitsu rules

  • I know!  It's always neat to catch a glimpse of a lady's "knickers", wot? ;)

  • You know that guy is a real trooper. I don't see any mats anywhere.

  • Thumbs up!

  • I never ever ever say this, but this was fake. The frame rate is spectacular and the black and white color saturation is remarkable. the person that created this added some 'fuzz' to the film to give it an old time film look but failed to make it too flawed. film wasn't this crisp and the audio woulöd sound like shit if it was real. I don't know if it is satire since I didn't watch the whole thing. But it's not authentic for those thinking it is.

  • it is authentic, search the british pathe archive and you will find it.

  • What you mean to say, Allucky, is that nothing this good could possibly have been created before 1990. Well,the world's been around for quite a while, even before your arrival. The graphics, the clothing and even the accent of the time are authentic to that time; this is evident.

  • o ya and wen he was holding u by the neck right infront of the chick she could have just kicked him in the nuts XD ezier

  • yep soft clam and balance u dont have to need power or anything just all those standards and focus

  • i liked dat full soilder at the start

  • I wish that were my grandma.

  • wow she very good

  • She's doing the real thing, i'm a girl and a black belt 2nd dan jujitsu. If those moves hadn't worked she'd have plenty of others to back it up....Go girl

  • it looks like bjj self defences

  • It's traditional Jujitsu. Full stop.

  • outstanding! this was the typical application of judo, practiced at the end of traditional classes, called jujitsu, or self defense (might have been called Kozen jujitsu?).

  • She's the perfect solution to crime!

    Get loads of JJ trained birds to walk around bad areas and wait for the oppotunity to practise, would be well funny lol!

  • Hehe She seems to really enjoy throwing him around.

  • i wonder which style of jj this is?

  • Liking the slow motion. ;)

    Is this AUTHENTIC, tho? Looks recreated to look 'old' to me but VERY well done if that is the case. Other part looks less authentic.

  • As Mr Cholmondley-Warner would say..."Women...Know your place!"

    "I don't know about a sweeping leg throw, but aren't puppies just darling?"

  • how and when did the british get a hold of this?

  • i wanna fuck that lady, but she's probably like 120 ....

  • Plus she'd throw your ass all over the place! :P

  • lol!

  • this is theb judo my mum taught me

  • yeah, judo descended from jujitsu. it uses the same throws as jujitsu, so these can also be found in judo waza. however jujitsu also teaches techniques of striking, blocking and evading, which (most) judoka don't use at all. jujitsu also places more emphasis on actual self defense than on competing.

  • hot chick

  • lol, I love this vid

  • I want to marry this girl

  • I have to say that this lady shows very good technique; even some modern jujitsu schools could learn from this.

  • wo this is a great video, But with his size I think its going to require a lot more effert, thats just a demo, but that shit is deffinitly real, and works!

  • This is an amusing vidoe, nice to watch, not technique perfect, but it get sthe message across....dont mess with a lady with a posh accent!

  • hahaa se le ven los calzones.. buenas lecciones u.u

  • this just doesnt not happen.a guy his size wont go down that easy if he actually tried 2 take the purse the last throw, tome nage might work but the rest is just BS!

  • It does happen. I do Ju jitsu so i would know. I've thrown a 40 year old.

  • yeah but i garentee it was due 2 gd and strong techniques not ilke the 1st few in da vid :P

  • Try spelling correctly, then I might understand what you have actually written.

  • Awesome old school vid. great technique with awesome babe, what else could a guy want.

  • Hot chick in a skirt with an accent kicking ass? that is sexy

  • Hard to imagine that she's long gone by now...

  • This shit is straight up real.

    I first learned that this footage existed in 1999 while doing research to help me obtain my first dan in jujitsu. I later read about this chick in some old school feminist papers my (now)ex girlfriend showed me in 2000. This footage is the real deal. This video is not a fake. This chick is a smoking hot jujutsu babe from the 30's. The answer is in the infirmary.

  • shes hot but i bet she dead by now :[

  • so funny lolz

  • Far less fake then 'Gracie' Jujitsu

  • The things in gracie jiu-jitsu aren't fake. They work given the situation. And if...if (just in case) your one of those people who safe GJJ is judo...then I have to beg to argue that Judo is pretty much jujutsu (japanese), Kano just wanted to have a safer way to spar and compete. And I'm also heairng that Kano (the founder of judo), took aspects from other jujutsu schools and combined the safer techniques that can be donw in sparring and competeing into one...which became known as judo.

  • LMAO!!! Owned

  • mmmmm at the and there some nice panties..

  • This was the mid-1920's and it goes to show that some things never change.....

  • when was this? 20s or 30s?

  • she's kinda cute, is she still single?

  • Interesting archival shot showing the technique and the culture of the 1930's. Forgive me, but I thought she was really adorable...even by the standards of today.

  • That was quite sweet so was the lady..The guy was pretty game though!! In the slow mo at the end you can see her knickers Beavis..Heh heh hee!!I just loved her voice too. It is weird to see martial arts that far back and yet still not really prominent today!!

  • Jujitsu was introduced to England in 1898 by E.W. Barton-Wright, the founder of Bartitsu (an eclectic self defence art combining jujitsu, judo, boxing, savate and stick fighting). This clip is from the British Pathe newsreel archive and was filmed in 1933.

  • The Pathe cockerel is facing the wrong direction and is much simpler. The Pathe Archive site has some questions of the young ladys' ethnicity.

  • thanks

  • i feel sorry for the man. =)

  • It's a piece of HISTORY!

  • very hot. good crotch shot on the last slow motion sequence. nice white panties.

  • Sorry guys I think this is contemporary. The way the the lovely lady has modern inflections in the way she says 'direction' and 'balance'. It is probably done by a Uni theater group. Very well done though.

  • Just read all the posts. Guys If I'm wrong and this film was made in 1933 as suggested then she could be your Gran or Great Grandmother.

    Must concede she is pretty cute though. Drop me a line sweetheart!
