What is Taijutsu?

Taijutsu (体術, literally “body technique” or “body skill”) offers a blend of practical self-defence and traditional martial arts for use in the “real world”, combining the fundamentals of Jujutsu with Western Boxing for punching and Thai Boxing for low kicks.

Focusing on techniques that work in street-based scenarios, we instruct in the three principles of

  • Avoidance
  • Disengagement
  • Counterattack

Our classes are open to all students of any level of martial arts experience. Our goal is to teach you a series of effective methods of self-defence that will work for your individual size and strength.

You will be taught a range of skills, including:

  • Blocking, striking and kicking
  • Locks and restraints
  • Disengagements from chokes and grabs
  • Practical throws
  • The use of traditional and improvised weapons

All of this in a friendly and welcoming environment by a team of experienced instructors.

We’re looking forward to meeting you in training – find our timetable here
