Welcome to the London Ju jitsu web site.

Ju jitsu is a Japanese martial art that employs a series of throws, strikes and joint locks to control an aggressor. Ju jitsu is an effective form of self defence that can be learned by anyone of any age or sex. After visiting London Ju Jitsu for their article on the merits of various Martial Arts, Men's Fitness Magazine rated Ju-Jitsu as "Absolutely the best Martial Art for Self-Defence."

We hold classes in Tooting, Wandsworth, St. John's Wood and Covent Garden. Please feel free to browse our pages for more information.
