Grading System and Syllabus Notes and changes to the Jitsu Foundation syllabus for January 2005 and onwards (please scroll down to view syllabus) General comments We have introduced Japenese terminology for techniques but that is currently for information only. We will not test people on any new Japanese terminology during2004/5. Considering testing this next year so start getting familiar with it.
The only change is that we have moved kuzushi from yellow to orange. The reasoning behind this is to give consideration to novice women not having a gi for most of this training period.
We have moved Kuzushi from yellow to orange. Note that we mentioned migi shizentai as the normal judo stance and grip. Only new terminology here, not to be tested, as per comments above on new Japanese terminology. Specific techniques mentioned for defences against grabs and cosh. The usual techniques but now specified.
Listed judo rolls here. Specific techniques mentioned for defences against grabs. The ususal techniques but now listed. Wristlocks 4-6 added. An 'understanding' of uchi komi for Ippon Seoinage and Osotogari. Headlocks have moved to Light Blue. Defence against Hadaka Jime (strangle) moved here from Light Blue.
A very small amount of new groundwork as per directional courses. specificly working with and taking the base, no more.

Syllabus The syllabus represents the examined aspects of the Gokyo of Shorinji Kan system of jiu Jitsu as practiced by the Jitsu Foundation. The Gokyo contains many more techniques and variations than can be expressed here and the techniques required are to be considered the backbone ofJitsu. The building blocks from which all else grows. There are many more elements to jui Jitsu then purely the physical performance of techniques. There are many aspects such as spirit, determination, feel and purpouse of technique which can only be assessed by those whith a vast experience of the art. (Though people at any level can enjoy good technique purely of its aesthetic value) The syllabus sould be viewd as a framework for developing people's skills in The Art. The development of techniques as described in the syllabus provides a pathway for the individual's development both within The Art and externally. Examiners may be called upon from time to time to assess people with disabilities either acquired or naturally occurring. In these cases an individual's performance may be rewarded on merit at the discretion of the grading panel and in consultation with th individual's instructor, thus reflecting the individual's personal achievement.
