Budoshin is a style of Jiu Jitsu was titled by William Fromm and George Kirby.[1]

Budoshin Jiu Jitsu began in 1967 where the duo began teaching the Jiu Jitsu at the Burbank YMCA. They taught the style of Jiu Jitsu they had learned from Jack "Sanzo" Seki whom taught at the Los Angeles Valley College[2]. Budoshin Jiu Jitsu takes the approach, as Seki did, that there are no styles or ryu of traditional jujitsu; that there is only jujitsu.

Budoshin also refers to a code of conduct [to conduct oneself in a respectful & responsible manner] rather than refer to a style or ryu of jujitsu. Seki allowed Kirby & Fromm to attach Budoshin in front of Jujitsu. Budoshin Ryu [or Budoshinryu or Budoshin-ryu] Jujitsu would not have been allowed by Seki as it would have violated his objection to there being jujitsu ryu/styles.
