World Ju-Jitsu Federation Wigan - WJJF

On Sunday the 12th of July, both "WJJF - WIGAN" & "Ormskirk Traditional Ju Jitsu" joined the annual Family Fun Day at Waitrose, Leyland. This was our 2nd year at this event, it was a great day, some of the Sensei's even won the tug of war & dance competition!

*** SAVE THE DATE!!! ***

Ormskirk and Kirkby Traditional Ju Jitsu are holding a seminar in recognition of the WJJF 50th anniversary.

This seminar is open to other students from clubs within the WJJF group.

Time, cost and line up will be confirmed in the forthcoming weeks.

I look forward to seeing as many of you on the tatami as possible.

Here are some photos & videos from the Seminar we had last night at "WJJF - WIGAN". I just wanted to thank the guest Instructors that came to teach from Bushi Ki Ryu Ju-Jitsu Club - Honbu, "Shihan Gary Shaw", "Sensei Brad Mconville" & "Sensei Rick Hedges". Everyone thoroughly enjoyed it & learned something new!
Thank you to all the students that turned up as well.

Please remember to bring plenty of water tonight, it's going to be a hot one! Also, if anyone wishes to train in their Gi pants & a t-shirt instead of the full uniform, you may do so.

This week we are looking at the "Praying Mantis" Kata, Originally derived from a Chinese Form (I sadly don't have the name).
This Kata is performed by Lee Hughes Sensei.

On Saturday the 23rd of May we held a Stall at "Wigan St Patrick's Amateur Rugby Club", big thanks to everyone who helped out.

we'll have another one on in August, hopefully we all don't get sunburnt next time!

If anyone would like to get involved with these stall events, please let me know, these are only used to promote the club, but if you'd like to help out you are more than welcome.

On Saturday the 6th of June, "World Ju-Jitsu Federation - Manchester" is holding a special Ju-Jitsu session, celebrating both Sensei Dave's & Sensei Phil's 50th Birthdays this year!
Please let me if you'd like to attend.

This week we are taking a break from old Kata & videos, instead here is a fun video demonstrating 100 different types of kicks.
How many have we done in lesson?

Most of them are in Korean in the video, to find the Japanese here's a little breakdown: Geri = Kick, Front = Mae, Side = Yoko, Back = Ushiro, Jumping/Flying = Tobi, Roundhouse = Mawashi.
I.E. Jumping Front Kick = Mae Tobi Geri.
