ABOUT TAIJUTSU
The Japanese word “Taijutsu” translates into English as “unarmed combat” or “skill with the body”. Taijutsu is a very effective mixed martial arts system consisting of striking skills, takedowns, submissions, joint locks, pressure points and control techniques. Taijutsu has proven itself time and time again in self defense encounters on the street and in mixed martial arts competitions.
Taijutsu offers students the ability to control an unruly subject with a control hold, or to utilize powerful striking techniques against an attack, even to gun & knife disarms. Taijutsu is an excellent martial art for students ranging from security/law enforcement/military personnel, to citizens who are interested in learning an effective system of self- defense.
