If you're after sparring in the boxing sense where you have 2 guys fighting, Jitsu is not for you. Jitsu as with most Japanese arts are self defence based. This is where u have an Uke (person attacking) and Tori (person defending). Together they learn the essence of each given technique in a safe, controlled manner.
Sparring consisting of the standard jiu-jitsu fighting system? Do you mean one person designated as an attacker, one as a defender, attacker throws punch, defender throws them to ground and then puts on a ground hold?
@quiteawful The sparring usually consists of the standard Jiu-Jitsu fighting system, so strikes followed by throws followed by groundwork. But sometimes we emphasize one of the three. Throws and groundwork are usually practiced randori-style indeed.
I have had some Judo classes, but I prefer Jiu-Jitsu, since you get to practice both Judo and Karate techniques and additional locks and chokes.
I'm a light blue belt and I've done TJF for a couple of years - it's awesome stuff!
I was attacked once by two thugs in the street who attacked me one at a time with straight punches which weren't actually aimed at my head. The first one let me throw him but the other almost hit me! So I asked him to attack me again and he did and I put him down and won :)
@kaffalamb im assuming ur a member of the club lol, im thinking of taking up a more traditional martial art for the new year and i was wondering if u could tell me how practical the techniques actually are, sorry but im a bit sceptical about the older arts :P
very good video guys =) sorry i haven't been able to come down and trained in a while, I have lately been very busy with the army cadet. i have just come back from my 2 weeks training camp and my expedition in wales. Hopefully i should be down some when soon... OB

@tufanyatta - tai chi classes run just before jitsu class on Wednesday nights. There's no connection to the ju jitsu club
phillipus2005 10 months ago
is it still running?
Cause I heard that there is Tai chi at the same place.....could it be that this is replaced for tai chi?
Or are they both running there?

Can anyone that practices Jiu Jitsu tell me how much time you spend training stikes (punches, kicks)?
RsGhost1 1 year ago
@RsGhost1 never
i practiced Jitsu for 4 years they don't practice strikes
do yourself a favour, do BJJ or Judo instead :)
quiteawful 9 months ago
@quiteawful I've been doing it for a while now and we practice plenty of strikes, I guess it depends on the dojo.

@RsGhost1 how do you mean practice strikes - padwork or punching the air
quiteawful 9 months ago
@quiteawful We practice strikes in the air, with pads and in sparring sessions.
RsGhost1 9 months ago
@RsGhost1 ok strikes in the air is pretty pointless
what are the sparring sessions like?
do you guys still do throws dealing from a "conventional snap punch"/"street punch" or do you practice them like randori style?
have you ever tried judo or BJJ?
