ABOUT BRIDGWATER JU-JITSU?
Ju-Jitsu today is based on unarmed self-defence, and is geared more towards the street situations of
sometimes dangerous towns and cities the world today. Ju-Jitsu shows you how to use your body as a weapon
to defend yourself against attackers, with minimal effort and maximum effect.
Ju-Jitsu is not a contest of muscular strength. Nor is its prime purpose to damage or maim, but merely to incapacitate one's
opponent for the time being by means of throws, locks and holds. Ju-Jitsu techniques can be both very simple and very complicated.
A thorough knowledge of the techniques is gained only with constant practice.
We aim to train all students to deal with almost any attack, including attacks by more than one assailant and defences against knife attacks.
Ju-Jitsu depends not on brute strength but on knowledge of the anatomy, and skill that comes from practice in making specific
movements with the body to gain an advantage over an opponent.
During training and while the student is taught new and more challenging techniques, they will continue to practice the techniques
already learned until these become second nature. As with most things in life, only practice, practice and more practice will ensure that
any student will reach his or her potential. This applies particularly to Ju-Jitsu.
