Description
Shooto is a combat sport and hybrid martial art founded by Satoru Sayama in
1985, considered one of the first true mixed martial arts systems. It combines
punching, kicking, throwing, and submissions, drawing techniques from Muay Thai,
Catch-As-Catch-Can wrestling, Russian Sambo and Judo. Practitioners are called
shooters or shootists. It was brought to the United States by Yorinaga Nakamura
through the USA Shooto Association.
