In addition to the teaching experience; our dojo offers an environment and an atmosphere that is different from many martial arts “studios” that focus exclusively on games, sports, and an obsessive approach toward forcing children to complete in martial arts competitions. Regardless of age, our students are learning serious, age appropriate, jujitsu self-defense skills that better enable them to deal with real life situations they might encounter in today’s dangerous world. Many schools occasionally “touch” on the subject of self-defense, along with their games and sporting events, but the Jukido Academy’s physical instruction – teaches traditional martial arts exclusively for realistic and practical scenarios; by teaching children how to use “Verbal Jukido” to talk down a bully, apply jujitsu skills to defend from an attack, or how to implement a survival strategy in the event of a child abduction! Jujitsu, and particularly our style of jujitsu – named Jukido, is the perfect art of self-defense for children or anyone who is physically smaller and weaker than their attacker (which is the way it happens in real life….big people tend to attack smaller people). The main reason for this is that our children are learning methods of utilizing a bigger and stronger person’s size, strength, and motion against them! In Jukido Jujitsu, the bigger they are…the harder they fall quite literally!
