Origins of JuJitsu Spelling and pronunciation

Heralding back to the time of the Samurai, JuJitsu is one of Japan’s most ancient martial arts. Literally translated, JuJitsu means the “adaptable” or “flexible” art of self defence. Techniques are focused on the flow of energy and are designed to neutralize an attacker by redirecting their energy back against them. It is one of the few martial arts where the ability to defend one’s self is not dependent on physical size and strength, but upon technique.

With that further insight into the origin of our Martial Art, it’s time to get begin your training.

Come along and be welcomed by our Instructor and his students.
Happy Breakfalls Everyone!!
