What is Jiu Jitsu?
Jiu Jitsu ("the gentle art") is a martial art that aims to incapacitate your opponent, with as little effort as possible. More importantly, technique is more important than strength so everyone can practise jiu jitsu!
The sport itself consists of a combination of trowing and locking techniques like judo and striking techniques like karate.
Trainings
At Yoroshi we have people of all levels training with us, so it doesn't matter if you have never done any martial art before or are a seasoned jiujitsuka, you are welcome to train with us.
We offer two hours of training, the first hour is the ticket hour. This hour is open for everyone with an X membership and here we do more basic techniques. This hour is good to join if you are a beginner or have had a long break from training and want to get back on your game.
The second hour is the member hour. As the name suggests this hour is reserved for members of Yoroshi. During this hour we practise more advanced techniques and we reserve more time to do some sparring. As a beginner you are more than welcome to join this training as well, you will learn much faster training with more experienced people!
Belt Exams
At Yoroshi we have belt exams twice a year. During the year we practise techniques for these exams to make sure you are ready when the time comes.
