In Karate one learns the technique of hitting and kicking as well as blocking hand-blows and kicks. In Jui Jitsu one learns the techniques of breaking holds and applying either counter holds or throwing techniques . The Self-Defense course borrows from both both sports in developing de- fense and counter attacks against unarmed attack.
