Kokondo Karate and its sister style, Jukido Jujitsu are Japanese-based martial arts developed by Shihan Paul Arel. Jukido Jujitsu was founded first, in 1959, and Kokondo Karate was founded in 1970. The two styles are taught and practiced primarily in the United States, Finland and Israel; within the United States, the largest concentration of dojos is near South Windsor, Connecticut, where Arel's dojo is located.
"Kokondo" literally means "the way of the past and the present;" this is embraced by the art in that it emphasizes modern application of ancient principles. "Jukido" means "the way of flexible energy"; its meaning is similar to that of Aikido. The techniques of Kokondo karate are drawn from several styles of asian martial arts, but principally Kyokushin karate and Sankata karate-jitsu. Jukido jujitsu is also based on many styles, but principally Sanzyuryu jujitsu. The term "Kokondo" is used to refer to the two arts jointly.
