Haringey Ju-Jitsu

Traditional martial arts training for practical self-defence

If you are looking to learn an effective martial arts system for practical self-defence while improving your fitness, confidence, and overall health, Japanese Jiu-Jitsu could be exactly what you are searching for.

Japanese Jiu-Jitsu is one of the oldest and most respected martial arts still practised today. Originally developed by the Samurai of feudal Japan, it combines striking, throws, grappling, locks, and ground fighting techniques designed to control and overcome opponents in real-life combat situations.

In Brief:

• Practical self-defence training
• Improve fitness and confidence
• Traditional Japanese Samurai martial art
• Throws, locks, strikes, and grappling
• Suitable for beginners and all abilities

Today, Japanese Jiu-Jitsu continues to grow in popularity and has influenced many modern combat sports and self-defence systems, including MMA, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ), Judo, and Krav Maga. Its practical approach makes it highly effective for both self-defence and competitive training.

Because Jujutsu teaches techniques for standing combat, clinch work, throws, submissions, and groundwork, it has become a valuable foundation for many MMA fighters and martial artists around the world.

Our Japanese Jiu-Jitsu club teaches traditional Samurai-based techniques adapted for modern self-defence and fitness training. Whether you are a complete beginner or have previous martial arts experience, our classes are welcoming, structured, and suitable for adults of all fitness levels.

Based in Southgate, North London, our club is easily accessible from Haringey and surrounding areas including Tottenham, Wood Green, Turnpike Lane, Crouch End, Muswell Hill, Hornsey, Finsbury Park, Stamford Hill, and Harringay.
