I was searching JuJitsu and I came across this art.
Bartitsu
Jujutsu was first introduced to Europe in 1898 by Edward William Barton-Wright, who had studied Tenjin Shinyō-ryū and Shinden Fudo Ryu in Yokohama and Kobe, respectively. He had also trained briefly at the Kodokan in Tokyo. Upon returning to England he folded the basics of all of these styles, as well as boxing, savate and French stick fighting, into an eclectic self-defence system called Bartitsu[9].
Is it just me or does this name instantly remind you of the Rick James at the China Club skit on The Chappelle Show?
