The word is not Jotutsu it is in fact 'Jodo' because it is the learn 'The Way of the Jo'. Brought about from the days of moyomoto musashi when he encountered this weapon in combat and could not win (although he did not lose either)
My club have taken the Jo art to a differant level with our Kumi-Jo which is a combat situation but incorporating a continuous flow with no stopping. Alomst like Jo sparring but the aim is to keep moving and flowing like water... Its very interesting!
