About Us
We are part of the Aiuchi Jiu Jitsu Association. Aiuchi jiu jitsu is a ‘gendai’ or modern style of Japanese jiu jitsu. We focus on self-defence rather than sport. Most of what we do is standing – looking at defences from kicks, punches, grabs and various weapons. We want to avoid or disarm an attack and escape.
We spend a lot of time on ‘situational’ self defence – looking at common or likely attacks and how we might defend ourselves against those. As a consequence you will see many techniques that might be familiar from other martial arts or other types of jiu jitsu – for example locks that you might have seen in aikido, throws from judo or groundwork from Brazilian jiu jitsu.
