| What is it?
Aiki Jujitsu, a
traditional Japanese martial art, is the forefather of modern
Aiki styles and martial arts such as Aikido, Judo and Hapkido.
Aiki Jujitsu students
learn to avoid conflict whenever possible. They also learn to
take control of difficult situations and to eliminate the threat
to their personal safety when violence is unavoidable.
Rather than meeting
force with force, students learn the use of circular motion and
redirection of an attacker's energy.
This helps neutralize the attacker’s size/strength advantage.
A wide variety of
techniques are taught to prepare students for a broad range of
situations including everything
from the basic bully to knife and gun attacks. Students learn to
use all of their natural weapons effectively (eg. hands, feet,
knees, elbows). The art of Aiki Jujitsu includes striking
techniques, blocks, throws, joint locks, chokes, nerve attacks
and more.
No competitive
fighting is involved. Self-defense techniques are always
practiced in co-operation with training
partners, allowing students to learn ju-jitsu at their own pace
in a fun, safe environment.
