History of Taki Ryu Shin Shin Jujitsu
All arts have a lineage, however, some arts are very difficult to attain that lineage. Especially an art as old as Jujitsu.
This art can be traced to Shaolin Kung-Fu. It was a combination of Shaolin Eagle Claw, Shotokan, Judo, and Modern Boxing called
Shin Shin Jujitsu founded by Leo D. Wilson. Leo D. Wilson was one of three (Wally Jay, Bud Estes, Leo D. Wilson) that
the AAU voted and received their 10th Dan titles in Jujitsu when they were trying to organize Jujitsu.
Leo D. Wilson formed US Yudo and the Midori Yama Budokai organizations and became the founder of Shin Shin Jujitsu. A student
of Hanshi Wilson, Master Chris Mitter (founder of Taki Ryu Shin Shin Jujitsu) has taken the knowledge from Shin Shin
Jujitsu and added a compilation of techniques as well as theories from Hanshi George Dillman, Hanshi Wally Jay, and Professor
Presas.
Sensei Chris Mitter holds dan ranks in Okinawan Kempo, Shin Nagare Karate, Isshin Ryu Karate, Aikido, Modern Arnis, Tai
Shin Ki Do, Jujitsu, Ryu Kyu Kempo and is the founder of Taki Ryu Jujitsu.
