Jiu Jitsu
Learn self-defence in style
Welcome!
We are a friendly University club that teaches people Jiu Jitsu regardless of previous experience or background. It's a fun and social way for everyone to learn some self defence.
We are affiliated with The Jiu Jitsu Foundation.
What is Jiu Jitsu?
Jiu Jitsu is a Japanese self-defence martial art that uses a series of throws, joint locks and strikes to counter punches, kicks, grabs, strangles and weapon attacks. It focuses on using your aggressor's energy to counter their threat.
Why join us?
Self-defence
We learn Jiu Jitsu and grade with The Jiu Jitsu Foundation, we'll have you rolling and defending yourself against attacks in no time.
Fitness
Like all martial arts, Jiu Jitsu makes you move! Perfect for keeping you in shape.
Competition
We go to Atemis (standing) and Randoris (ground work) annually, if you don't know what that means don't worry! It's just a friendly competition for you to show off your Jitsu Skills.
Friendship
We regularly have socials with just our club, Jitsu clubs from other unis and WUMAT.
Apart from improving your fitness and self defence, Jitsu is great fun and provides an opportunity for you to meet new friends, and outside of training we organise many social events.
Yoi... When can I try Jiu Jitsu?
We offer two free taster sessions before you need to join the club, so you can see if you like it! You can join the club at any point in the year, so don't worry if you missed Welcome Week. Just keep in mind that things might be a bit intense around grading time (normally towards the end of each term)!
I'm still not sure...
If you're still not sure, you can always come along to our socials and meet the club! We're a friendly bunch and we'd love to meet you! Keep an eye on our social media for the latest.
Or… perhaps these testimonials can help you decide!
