A raw expression of humility and control, this design captures the inner battle every martial artist must face. At its center, the word OSU is reimagined — the O as a skull, the S as a lightning bolt, and the U as a coiled snake — symbolizing life, energy, and transformation. In martial arts tradition, OSU (also written OSS) dates back to the samurai spirit and represents perseverance, respect, and unwavering determination. It is spoken across dojos worldwide in Judo and Jiu Jitsu as a greeting, a sign of acknowledgment, and a reminder to endure. The skull and lightning signify that true strength begins only when the ego is overcome.
