WHAT IS Jiu-Jitsu?

Jiu-Jitsu is a sports club that teaches basic self-defence by giving you the opportunity to learn the traditional Japanese samurai martial arts of Jiu-Jitsu, giving you the ability to meet others interested in this amazing fighting style and train to defend yourself.

Socials are held after training sessions and we discuss what we have done and what more we can do.

Jiu Jitsu is an individual sport but members have the opportunity to compete throughout the year.

 

GET STARTED

To be a part of the club, you need to join up as a member. The different club membership options are listed below with a description of what each membership covers. By purchasing a membership you are agreeing to the club's code of conduct.

We would recommend getting a Gi (martial arts uniform) but we can also sell you a set as we have some available.

 

Please note that your membership information will be used in conjunction with Essex Sport (University of Essex) purely for the purpose of providing access to required facilities and data analysis. Your data will not be shared with anyone else or used for marketing purposes. Memberships are uploaded to the Essex Sport system manually and so it may take up to 5 working days before you are able to book onto your session via the Essex Sport app and attend training sessions.

Should you have any problems please email blades@essex.ac.uk
