There is an interesting story behind the history of this sport; it was accidentally founded by the Japanese samurais as a self-defense technique against an armed group of enemies. The samurais didn't have any weapon to fight against their enemies with, and what they used were only their bodies. So, they made use of their bodies and developed techniques like pins, joint locks and striking throws to defeat their enemies.

If you choose to join any contact sport, be sure that you check or consult your physician, especially if you have a heart condition or have undergone any serious surgery.

You should make sure that you wear the gears required by some sports before getting into the ring to fight.
