PREFACE


 NOTE.―We hope that readers of this book will write and tell us when they find the descriptions wanting in clearness. We shall be very happy to answer questions and to receive suggestions. The subject has been a difficult one to put on paper, and we are much indebted to our colleagues, Messrs. J. Hirano, S. K. Eida, and Shozo Kanaya for help in this task.

TARO MIYAKE,
YUKIO TANI.

 THE JAPANESE SCHOOL OF JU-JITSU,
    305, OXFORD STREET, W.

IN the four months that have elapsed since the publication of the first edition, Ju-jitsu has made visible progress in popularity. Cambridge has, naturally, taken the lead in the recognition of a new and valuable game ; the enthusiasm of the University Ju-jitsu Club has been most gratifying. Charterhouse School, and the Royal Military Academy at Woolwich have both been undergoing instruction, and here and there (at such places as the Staff College and Oxford) and classes have been formed.
 Last winter, in writing the Preface to this book, we deleted, at the last moment, various paragraphs dealing with the Ju-jitsu game for women―under the impression that feminine ideas were not yet sufficiently advanced to permit interest in any woman’s game involving real physical exertion. We have been agreeably surprised to find that Newnharn College has taken keenly to Ju-jitsu, and Girton (as we understand) is on the point of forming a class for its study.
 The Admiralty having made a grant for the purpose, the instruction of the Navy in Ju-jitsu began (October 1st) both at the School of Physical Training at Portsmouth and at Whale Island.

THE EDITORS.

DEMONSTRATIONS OF JU-JITSU

 The School has already given a number of private demonstrations at such places as the Royal Military Academy, Woolwich, Eton College, Charterhouse, Chelsea Barracks, and at various club reunions, at various social festivities known as “at homes,” and in the open air at garden parties in various parts of the country.
 We would draw the attention of headmasters and secretaries of clubs and of military and athletic associations to the fact that a demonstration of Ju-jitsu is not only interesting, effective, and highly genteel, but that it can also be counted upon to arouse a certain enthusiasm among spectators. It forms in effect a striking novelty in entertainment.
 A pamphlet is published by the School giving the demonstration programme with full explanatory notes.
 A full demonstration will occupy from one hour to an hour and twenty minutes.
 A floor space of 20 feet by 20 feet is required for the mats.
 A postcard to the Secretary will procure notice of public demonstrations given by the School.

追記2012.12.2
 1908年、ロンドンのアルハンブラ劇場で行われたレスリング・トーナメントに、平野という日本人が出場しており、日本柔術学校の平野と思われます。別ページ「1908 前田光世 対 アブドーラ」に書きました。
