Karate and Jiu-Jitsu Integrated Curriculum...

At The Martial Arts Center, we teach Shintoyoshin-Kai Jiu-Jitsu in our Adult program in tandem to our system of Karate-do. This provides versatility in training and a greater understanding of combat.

This system emphasizes balance, leverage, and sensitivity while learning the aspects of falling, throwing, striking, groundwork and basic self-defense. The emphasis in Jiu-Jitsu is on grappling -- both standing and on the ground, although Shintoyoshin-Kai Jiu-Jitsu is known to be a striking art.
