Basingstoke Ju Jutsu Club

Basingstoke Ju Jutsu Club We have been teaching Mizu Ryu Ju Jutsu, a modern form of Japanese Ju Jutsu in Basingstoke for the last 32 years. Chief Instructor Anthony Bailey, 8th Dan.

Welfare/Safeguarding officer Stephen Dyer, 3rd Dan. All members/parents have his contact number. Ju Jutsu is one of Japanโ€™s oldest Martial Arts and is a mixture of the techniques you would today see in Karate, Judo and Aikido. It is well suited to children as well as adults young and old. As a Martial Art not just sport, Mizu Ryu Ju Jutsu as a modern variation, has much more to teach than just sel

f defence, but due to experience and expert guidance, it has proved itโ€™s worth as a practical self defence for children and adults year after year since its foundation in 1994. Teaching a well proven system of self defence for both children and adults alike, we cover the full range of techniques normally included in Traditional Japanese Ju Jutsu from strikes to throws, submissions (not children), Pressure Points, ground fighting and some traditional weaponry. Having trained for 45 years and been in the unfortunate position of having to actually use these skills for real over many years in the Security & Bodyguarding Industries, our Chief Instructor has proven that the techniques work and passes on that experience to the rest of us. Our SD3 initiative ensures we provide the children we teach with more than just a good self defence system, giving them useful lessons to develop and use outside the dojo as well as within it. Please feel free to contact us to join, or come and try a FREE introductory class.

The (huge) project I've been working on for a while will go live soon - just waiting for one of the locations to confirm starting date.

This is spread across several locations in Luton, but also covers Basingstoke and London. It involves the formation of a new club in Luton - (Mizu Ryu Ju Jutsu Luton), as well as other 1-2-1 and group exercise, health & healing activities.

It will also help create more inclusive seminars as it's easier for all my contacts in Welwyn Garden City, Coventry, Birmingham, Peterborough, Cambridge and Leicester to get to, pulling together the best of instructor friends gained over the last 32 years, as well as new martial instructors I've come to know over the last 2 or 3 years. www.kizunaholistichouse.com

Stay tuned for more info and the official opening date, which will be a traditional Japanese Kagami Biraki style event, including some really well known martial instructors some of you may have read about, but not met, yet ๐Ÿ™

Tomorrow sees the start of the Obon ใŠ็›† festival. Here's a link to The Japan Society website for a downloadable info pack to learn a little more about the festival and it's importance, as well as a couple of origami projects on video to keep you busy for a while!

Obon is one of the most important annual festivals in Japan and takes place in the summer. It is based on the Buddhist belief that the spirits of ancestors return to their family home at this time of year.
