Fermanagh Ju Jitsu
WJJF Ireland Japanese Ju Jitsu classes - self defence based training
Regular training session for junior and senior students with Fermanagh Ju Jitsu in Lisnaskea.
Ju Jitsu is a Japanese martial art and self defence system which uses a combination of strikes, blocks, holds, locks, chokes and throws to overcome an opponent. It is both a highly effective form of self defence and a healthy activity for people of all ages. It is primarily a self defence system rather than a combat sport but Fermanagh Ju Jitsu also gives students the opportunity to compete in grappling competitions and kata competitions (not compulsory).
Our training involves a mix of fitness, conditioning, practicing set technique drills and live training (different types of sparring - strikes, grappling and a mix of both)
Beginners are welcome but please note there is a waiting list to join the class as a junior. To put your child on the waiting list please visit the class or enquire via our contact page. We will need their name, date of birth and your mobile phone number. The junior class is for children from age 6+. At age 12 they can join the teens section in our senior class or stay in the junior class until age 16.
Our senior class is a mixed class with our adult students age 18+ and our teens section age 12+. There is no waiting list for this class so seniors can join at any time.
