Ju-Jutsu is one of the oldest and most comprehensive forms of martial arts to be known. Used original by the Samurai for combat, the training included armed as well as unarmed fighting methods. Later on when training for real combat wasn't the main criteria anymore, other slightly more civilized martial arts such as Judo, Karate or Aikido were developed from it. Today, most forms of Ju-Jitsu can be divided into two groups: Koryu - meaning old or traditional and Gendai Ryu - meaning new or modern. Both groups offer a fantastic self-defence training but differentiate in the fact that the older forms still teach the handling of traditional weapons, whilst many of the modern forms are primarily focused on competitive options.

Goshin Ryu Ju-Jutsu is a form of mixed martial art, which uses old as well as new principles. The style taught at the Martial Art School - Nottingham incorporates e.g. techniques from martial arts such as Ninjutsu, Boxing, Judo, Karate, Aikido, Escrima and others, providing so an excellent mixture of realistic self-defence and physical fitness

During your training, you will be shown how to roll, punch, kick and throw correctly as well as how to apply pressure points, wrist locks, arm bars and other techniques, in order to defend yourself, whilst being attacked either in an upright position, down on the ground or any other possible situations - e.g. in a car, tram, etc.
