The beauty of jujitsu training is that it does not rely on power or strength. It relies on the concept of using the attacker’s momentum against them. It is suitable for everyone from 7 to 70 years and beyond. It is also an excellent self-defence system for both men and women!
Japanese Jiu-Jitsu isn’t just a great activity for high-energy teens, it is also an incredible workout. It doesn’t matter if you are sedentary or a budding athlete, Jiu-Jitsu classes at TSD get you burning off unused calories in a flash while giving you an incredible cardio workout!
The club has adjusted its Jui-Jitsu training to make it safer for children. It is structured in a way that allows kids to see improvement in their skills and knowledge of the art with each lesson. This, in turn, does well with helping kids build up their self-confidence.
