Comments

Traditional Jujutsu at UNM is more than just skill development for offense and self defense. It also introduces students to the higher goals of Traditional Japanese Jujutsu that speak to empowerment, character development, focus, and the development of determination and a no-quit attitude. Further, with diligent training many are able to BOOST THEIR BRAIN EFFICIENCY (and possibly brain capacity) by employing their instructor's system (JBS) of jujutsu, brain stimulation and reprogramming. The JBS System, which focuses on bilateral forms of brain and body training, contributes to brain regeneration of neural pathways (called neurogenesis), and this makes the brain more efficient in a number of significant ways (paper available in my new book, "JUJUTSU: Traditions, Ways & Modern Practices", available on Amazon and from your instructor.

Further, the course will teach you some awesome defensive/offensive skills and will help develop your timing, coordination, speed and endurance, among other attributes,

Folks, without appearing to oversell this art I can assure you that "the awesome power of jujutsu" will transform you in ways you never imagined possible! You got to try it and stay with it to reap the benefits!

Evening, My name is Juan Ortiz. I came across your Web page. Interested in observing the next class. I am looking forward to the 6th Annual Martial Arts Expo at UNM on November 15th, 2017. When is the best time to observe the next class?

Prof. Andrew Yiannakis
UNM Jujutsu However, the purpose of such intensive training is not to make students violent.

Professor Yiannakis founded Wa Shin Ryu Jujutsu, a Japanese-based martial art, at the University of Connecticut in 1982. Wa Shin Ryu Jujutsu is a holistic, comprehensive system of unarmed combat and self defense, and due to its battlefield origins may be described as the original integrated "mixed" martial art. The system has a basis, in form and philosophy, in Koryu Bujutsu (classical martial art

s) but as an evolved system it may be best described as a modern martial art that adheres strictly to its classical moorings. Unlike most classical, or classically-based systems in which free sparring plays a minimal role, Wa Shin Ryu stresses the development of effective combative skills by training students in live sparring situations (randori) in distance, close quarter and ground fighting contexts. Such forms of training develop sustained focused concentration, superior coordination and timing, and create for students a high degree of realism that set routines and repetition training alone (a central feature of most classical systems) cannot provide. The goal is to empower them so that they may walk away with confidence, if that is deemed the appropriate response at the time. An effective martial artist is an empowered individual. And an empowered individual has the confidence to make choices and decide whether to engage in violence, or to contain/defuse a situation by other means. Thus, in the modern world an empowered martial artist is a type of person who, by having many options, can make the choice to avoid/prevent violence, or when the situation demands can save himself/herself and others. The unempowered individual has no such options or choices! In developing the system the Founder integrated the traditions of the old, with the best of the new, to form a budo system that serves: (1) As a personal discipline, (2) as a way of life, (3) as an effective combative/self defense system, (4) as a pathway to empowerment, and (5) as a path to self actualization (the ultimate goal of the system) in the physical, psychological and spiritual domains. The class/club includes both male and female students and occasional guest participation is encouraged. At UNM our classes for Beginning/Intermediate (Fall & Spring) and Intermediate/Advanced students (for 2 credits) are held on Tues/Thurs 2.00 - 3.20pm and 2.30-5pm (in Auxiliary Gym, Johnson Center). At Sandia Budokan (our off-campus private club) we also hold Intermediate/Advanced workouts (non-credit) on Mon/Wed, 7.00-9.15pm and on Sats 2.00-5.00pm. The club is located on Silver and Yale SE, one block south of UNM.. Monthly dues range from $25-$45. Wa Shin Ryu Jujutsu is also taught at the University of Connecticut, at Eastern Connecticut State University, and at Illinois State University in Chicago.
