Judo is derived from Jujutsu.

It was introduced into the Olympic Games in 1964 and is practiced by millions of people throughout the world today. It is best known for it’s spectacular throwing techniques but also involves considerable grappling on the ground utilizing specialized pins, control holds, arm locks, and Judo choking techniques.
