t London Budo we teach authentic Japanese Jiu Jitsu that has been passed down from teacher to pupil for hundreds of years combined with the best techniques from modern combat sports and self defence programs. We aim to provide a complete martial art system for 21st Century Londoners that combines self defence, fitness and tradition in a friendly supportive community. It is incredibly difficult to find authentic, practical Japanese jiu jitsu in the UK so our head instructor, has travelled to Japan over 35 times to learn this art directly from the masters there. He first visited Japan in 1993 and his teacher awarded him a shidoshi (teacher's) licence in 1999. He is also a daishihan (master instructor) of the Bujinkan Dojo in Japan. Our focus is to provide a program of effective self defence training whilst understanding the techniques and lessons from past generations.
