GUARDIAN SELF DEFENSE

About the Guardian Self-Defense Jujutsu Program

Guardian Self-Defense is dedicated to excellence in martial arts training.  From beginner level through advanced, our programs offer each student the opportunity to reach his or her greatest martial arts potential.

A popular martial arts tradition originating in Japan, Jujutsu (gentle art) combines all the basic elements of self-defense; punching, kicking, joint locks, submission holds, throws, takedowns, chokes, restraints, escapes and ground fighting at close and long range. Jujutsu is of a combative nature- not competition or sport.

At the primary level, practitioners learn fundamental techniques of movement (kihon dosa), falling (ukemi), balance displacement (kuzushi), percussive strikes and basic locks and throws. As practitioners progress to intermediate level, they learn through experience by interacting with partners to develop timing, reaction coordination and intuition. Techniques are practiced both standing and on the ground. Finally, the focus leads to club, knife, and gun disarms.

The Guardian Self-Defense Karate Program boasts a progressive curriculum suitable for the young and old, novice or experienced practitioner. Our instruction is provided by an experienced and qualified instructor, in a fun, supportive environment.

This program will help practitioners develop self-confidence and practical self-defense skills.
