Scorpion Jiu-jitsu Academy encompasses and teaches all elements of the art from Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ), the sporting style whose popularity is sweeping the globe, to the Combat form of Jiu-Jitsu where we are more mindful of striking opponents as well as defending against many other forms of attack. Combat Jiu-Jitsu is a practical method of self-defence, personal fitness, and character developme
nt. We use the natural law of motion, leverage, timing and efficiency to enable us to defeat bigger, stronger opponents. When combined with effective striking techniques it forms an extremely powerful offensive and defensive martial art. Jiu-Jitsu will mould itself to the practitioner utilising his or her strengths. Jiu-jutsu should never force its practitioners into a standard mould, or fixed unrealistic stances. After the initial levels of training are well established individual ability and expression are encouraged and indeed expected.
