Ju-Jitsu
is a Martial Art with some of the most practical self-defence techniques.
It is both challenging and rewarding to learn, as well as being great fun
and an enjoyable way of keeping fit. It also helps to instil self-discipline
and confidence in the student.
At the Wanstead club there is a friendly and relaxed atmosphere, however we do maintain a high standard of teaching with a comprehensive syllabus.
Young and old, male or female come and join in the fun of training in Ju-Jitsu. You do not need to be super fit to do this, nor do you need special equipment, just a set of jogging bottoms and a top. All you really need is a commitment to train on a regular basis and the attitude to do your personal best, we will take care of the rest.
The techniques are basically the same as for the adults, but with the more
difficult applications removed. The kids learn defences and escapes from bigger
and stronger opponents and usually enjoy a game at the end of the session.
The adult class is geared towards self defence techniques, simple locks, holds
and throws moving on to the more advanced moves as you progress.
