Japanese Jujitsu Self Defense

Sep 2022

Coming from a background not well known on the east coast, it has been a lovely transition practicing traditional Judo. Traditional Japanese martial arts classes are hard to find, but this one is the one I keep going back to. I love it! Sensei Dave is awesome as well as all of the other Senseis. If you are used to small circle jujutsu and don't mind taking a roll or two, this is the place to go!

My daughter has been practicing Japanese Jujitsu at Kaiwan Budokai Dojo for 6 months now and she loves going there. It has a welcoming learning environment led by Sensei Dave who has a heart of a teacher. The senior members of the class are very helpful to newbies learn the art. We wanted our daughter to learn self-defense before she heads out to college. She would have started earlier if not for the pandemic. As parents, we need to give our children the necessary tools to navigate life and self-defense is so important.

Kaiwan Budokai is the best. Great instructors who really teach you the ART of Jujitsu and everything that goes with it. Strength, discipline, confidence, carriage. They tailor their teaching to your specific strengths and work with you to develop new ones. It's amazing to see what you're capable of with some knowledge, some practice and the right moves.
