Kaishinkai Chicago

do Warm ups, Technical Drills and Good ol' fashion Sparring . It’s simple, We get in, get it in & get out. ALL persons are welcome. Our Technical Base is both Self-defense & Combat Sport oriented and is a synthesis of Jiu-Jitsu, JuJutsu, Judo, Catch Wrestling, Boxing, Sanshou, Muay Thai, American Kick Boxing, & Sports Massage. There is no ultimate style, But if your goal is to defend yourself & others then this is a great class because of its well roundedness. Classes start out with fundamentals of Rolling & Break Falling. As students progress gradually into the system, they learn a balanced curriculum of Submission Wrestling, Boxing, Muay Thai & Self-Defense JuJutsu. This is both a Gi/No Gi class Teaching StyleClasses start with very Strenuous warm ups designed to get students in intimidating fighting shape then we do technical drills which evolve as the Art evolves. Then we Spar (or Roll, Randori, Box & Wrestle) against a resisting determined partner(s) We believe There is no other way to become proficient. Just practicing drills will not make you a good martial artist, but it will make it so you wont have to think when under pressure. But You will not be able to defend yourself effectively unless you Spar or contest the technique in a live situation against someone who doesn't want you to succeed. We try to get as close as we can get to an actual fight without an ambulance showing up. We do not try to kill each other. But We also don't just practice the strokes, we get in the water and swim! Putting on the proper protective equipment and going all out every class using the techniques learned. We don't fool ourselves or our students by telling them that they must wait years to be able to defend themselves. We know that If you spar on a regular (Every Class), a month is enough to get used to Physical Combative Aggression & Four months to get in fighting shape.. You will only get better and tougher with consistency. School Mottos
