Martial arts and strategy cheat sheets

These are the references you want on your phone between classes: the BJJ position and submission map, the judo throw and groundwork catalogue with the Japanese names, and the Ashihara sabaki system. Each is organised the way the art is taught rather than alphabetically, so a technique sits next to the position it starts from.

The nine-style comparison is for the person choosing a school: what each art trains, what it neglects, and how they compare for self-defence, fitness and competition. The Art of War is a dual-language reader, original Chinese beside the English, because the famous quotations are usually paraphrases.

Every sheet here is produced by a governed Claude Code pipeline: a version-controlled spec as acceptance criteria, primary-source research, a self-verification gate, and a public git audit trail. Read how it is built or browse the source on GitHub.

The map draws itself with JavaScript, which is off. The grid below lists every sheet, and each sheet's detail view names its neighbours.

Drag to pan, scroll to zoom, double-click to reset. Click a node to open its detail. Colour is category; size is how much it is read this month.
