JIU-JITSU PROGRAM
JiuJitsu is a hot topic these days! If you’ve ever tried it, you understand why! JiuJitsu is a great full-body workout with benefits that go far beyond the gym. It increases strength, flexibility, cardio, and is a great way to lose weight and get in the best shape of your life. JiuJitsu also teaches you to solve problems in uncomfortable situations, which is proven to create new neural connections and increase brain plasticity. Equally important, JiuJitsu teaches you self defense skills that actually work in the real world and allow you to escape from, control, and subdue larger and stronger opponents. Most of all it is fun and great for stress relief and making new friends! Read more about the awesome programs we offer!
ADULTS
JiuJitsu has gained a lot of attention in recent years, and it’s obvious why. Made for the real world, JiuJitsu is a form of self defense that every person should master. JiuJitsu starts on the feet but ends on the ground – using stand up techniques, grips, holds, throws, take downs, and a variety of joint locks, chokes, and other submission techniques. This makes JiuJitsu ideal for learning how to subdue and overcome a larger, stronger opponent without necessarily having to permanently injure them.
KIDS
JiuJitsu helps kids gain confidence, learn discipline, focus their energy, foster respect for others, and be a part of a one-of-a-kind community full of future friends and mentors!
SELF DEFENSE
As parent’s our first priority is to keep our children safe. We are passionate about equipping children with invaluable self-defense skills that will provide confidence and safety throughout their lives. The entire art is focused on teaching practitioners how to escape, subdue, and control larger and stronger opponents. All while remaining calm and problem solving. JiuJitsu also provides self defense skills that work but do not actually injure attackers. This is invaluable in the modern classroom environment when self defense via punches or kicks can result in automatic discipline, even if used for self defense.
COMMUNITY
From the moment a child steps into our building, they will be met with a supportive and inclusive environment of instructors and fellow students who want them to succeed. Because students regularly spar each other in class, you may be surprised to learn just how strong the friendships in our JiuJitsu classes are. JiuJitsu teaches kids the thrill of winning as well as the humility of losing, and we make sure our students respect each other throughout all the highs and lows of their training.
CONFIDENCE
Bushido is dedicated to empowering you with the confidence and self-esteem needed to succeed in everyday life. JiuJitsu can bring out the positive qualities that have always been a part of you, whether that is inner calm, positive mental attitude, patience, or self-discipline. JiuJitsu training will help you overcome fear, anger, and self-doubt, and leave you feeling confident in any situation. From day one, we encourage students to express any questions and concerns they may have. We believe that communication is the key to building confidence and creating a healthy and uplifting training
environment.
FOCUS
A huge part of what makes JiuJitsu so great is that it doesn’t just strengthen the body, it strengthens the mind as well. Many parents worry that JiuJitsu won’t be the right fit for their child because he or she has a lot of energy. At Bushido we encourage our students to be energetic and excited when they come to class – our goal is simply to focus that energy. Our JiuJitsu curriculum aims to take all that pent up energy and direct it into throws, blows, and a wide variety of fun activities.
