The Martial Arts
were never intended to be a race to the finish, instead they are a steady progression and represent a life time of learning
and improvement. We understand this concept at Jukido Ryu and therefore we accept the student
where they are and present a series of goals for them to reach along their martial career. As the student practices
and strives for perfection, in time they find they reach those goals and beyond.
RANK ADVANCEMENT
At each level (rank) within our system, the student is taught martial elements as well as is tasked with ideas
and projects designed to improve their overall well being, social skills, and community involvement which significantly increases
their ability to be productive members of society.
No matter the students rank or level within
the system, we require nothing but maximum effort and demand perfection of technique along with a high degree of competency
before advancement.
WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
At each
rank within our system the student will be taught a variety of self defense techniques which they will practice very slowly
at first to learn the mechanics of it, and then gradually increase the level of intensity to achieve a working knowledge of
the effects of the technique.
As part of our traditional aspects of Budo, students also learn Kata
at each Rank. Within Jukido Ryu we feature both traditional kata as well as unique kata developed by Shidoshi.
What may be called "kata", beginning students learn short series of movements to familiarize themselves with the patterns
and mechanics of future kata. Traditionally, hidden within each kata are self defense techniques. These are also
explored at each rank.
Grappling is an important part of the curriculum at Jukido Ryu. Statistics
say that about 90% of all confrontations end up on the ground at some point. With this in mind we teach our students
to quickly and effectively neutralize a ground encounter with sound techniques and mechanics.
To
achieve a total mind/body relationship we also engage in physical conditioning. Utilizing traditional exercises as well
as fun and unique exercises we present the student with fitness goals at each level.
INSTRUCTION
TYPE
The instruction team at Jukido Ryu is a close knit group of people who enjoy seeing others prosper.
Before they are licensed as Jukido Ryu Instructors, an aspiring instructor must complete an exhaustive teaching certification
course which covers all aspect of teaching, protecting, and encouraging our students. Even after an Instructor is licensed
they must complete regular refresher courses. The Instruction team meets frequently to address, assess, and improve
upon their teaching skills.
While we often train in groups of mixed ranks, each Instructor provides
personal attention to each student at every class to review and ensure their consistent progress. If a student desires,
they may also receive private instruction.
***Jukido Ryu Instructors are the best in the industry
and they want you to be your best too. At every class expect your Instructor to push you to work at 110%, expect them
to guide and inspire you to achieve your life goals, and expect them to be your partner in your journey to personal excellence.
Our Instructors are always available to students and parents any time before or after classes to answer questions or assist
you with your training.
Martial Arts training is life training!!!
