Advanced Jujutsu is open to students who have had at least one semester's training in ANY martial art. Dr. Yiannakis started the UConn Judo Club in 1976 but the name was changed to UConn Jujutsu Club in 1999. The club is the home of Wa Shin Ryu Jujutsu , a holistic, comprehensive system of self defense and unarmed combat founded by Prof. Yiannakis in 1983. In developing the system the Founder integrated the traditions of the old, with the best of the new, to form a budo system serving as a path to self actualization. The club includes both male and female students, several faculty, and community participation is encouraged.
