The Pit Japanese Ju Jitsu is an absolutely fantastic class that cover everything that I can think of, especially such a rare arts to come across.
The class covers upright throws, chokes, self-defence, grappling, Japanese language, fitness, discipline, weapons, culture and respect, just to list a few items.
The class is ran on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 7 and honestly, I cannot get enough given the wide variety that is covered.
I have been a student for 3 years now under the extensive range of Masters and their experiences, and the life skills that has been learnt through The Pit has been unforgettable!
If your looking for life skills, new hobby, fitness, a family outside of your family, come down to the Pit right away. This will not be a decision you regret, only thing you will regret is not signing up sooner!
I started last year and the more I learn the cooler it gets. JJJ is a comprehensive system that combines striking, throws and grappling. Its traditions and history are fascinating. On top of all of that it’s a great fun and an awesome work out. I can’t recommend it enough!
An excellent system to be apart of with great mentors. A safe and respectful environment to learn ju jitsu. As a student, I've gained a wealth of knowledge and skills from dedicated instructors with decades of experience who have helped me grow as a person over the years throughout my martial arts journey. I highly encourage pursuing this traditional art.
An amazing full time martial arts centre where you can learn all aspects of Japanese Ju Jitsu. Dedicated instructors who are passionate and want to bring out the very best in you. A place where you can train with other great, respectful, dedicated and supportive members. No matter your training experience or ability. Highly recommend this traditional and disciplined art.
A great system to be associated with. The camaraderie in the dojo along with the intellectual teachings of experienced instructors that are dedicated in coveying the art of Japanese JuJitsu to students, creates valuable lessons that I carry with me in everyday life.
In my experience of the last year or two The Pit is an excellent well rounded dojo where i practise Japanese Ju Jitsu and Kobu (weapons) arts where striking, take downs and ground work is mixed in with weapons (knife, short stick sword, katana and jo) and physical conditioning.
While modern BJJ specialises in fighting other practitioners of the same art, JJJ is the root art of aikido and judo originating in samurai combat and taught at the dojo for self defence. An increased focus on empty hands striking occurred after the abolishment of the samurai class.
This particular dojo does excellent work preserving the original art as handed down to our Grand Master Nick Donato who he himself has a deep and varied understanding of the arts.
As with most Japanese dojos and arts, the hierarchy, ritual and naming conventions are very prescriptive, something I personally struggle with.
The training is a mix of drills, kata, sparring and conditioning, with emphasis placed in that order. Training is done in a way that is as safe as possible and sustainable long term.
If you’re looking for a traditional, well rounded martial art? Than this is it! You will not find a more welcoming and authentic Japanese Ju Jitsu system. Have been training here in the Ben Kan Ryuha style of Japanese Ju Jitsu for 8 years and thoroughly enjoy each session with experienced instructors and mentors. Great friendships have been made with my fellow students and training partners. I could not recommend this high enough.
Knowledgeable and passionate instructors teaching Japanese JuJitsu in a safe, friendly and supportive environment. No egos here, everybody is respectful of others in the dojo. Great place to train and learn. Everyone is made to feel welcome 🙏 🤗
