Judo
is many things to different people. It is a fun sport, an art,
a discipline, a recreational and social activity, a fitness
program, a means of self-defense and combat, and a way of life.
It is all of these and more.
People practice Judo& Jujitsu to excel in competition,
to stay in shape, to develop self-confidence, and for many
other reasons. But most of all, people do Judo & Jujitsu
just for the fun of it. Our program is a combination of the
powerful throws of Judo and the intricate ground grappling
techniques of Jujitsu involving pins, control holds, arm locks,
and Judo choking techniques. Judo emphasizes safety, and full
physical activity for top conditioning. For those who want
to test their skills, both Judo & Jujitsu offers competition
at all skill levels, from club events to national tournaments
to the Olympic Games.
Judo &
Jujitsu provides the means for learning self-confidence, concentration,
and leadership skills, as well as physical coordination, power,
and flexibility. Since it is a sport that evolved from a fighting
art, it develops complete body control, fine balance, and
fast reflexes. Above all, it promotes a sharp mind well-coordinated
with a quick-reacting body. Judo training also gives a person
an effective self-defence system if the need arises.
Judo & Jujitsu are used today in every branch of the United
States Military including the Marine Corps and Navy S.E.A.L.s.
Judo
&
Ju-Jitsu were specifically developed to allow a smaller person
to defeat a larger person by proper application of leverage,
timing and technique. Gaining superior position on your opponent
and applying a myriad of chokes, holds, locks and joint manipulations
becomes the foundation for this fun martial art.
