Youth Jiu Jitsu Program in Sligo
Help your child build confidence, fitness and practical self-defence skills
What is Jiu Jitsu?
Jiu-Jitsu is a martial art based on grappling techniques. The aim of Jiu-Jitsu is to control and subdue a larger and stronger opponent through the use of superior techniques, leverage, and body mechanics. With an emphasis on grappling rather than striking, students are able to practice with varying levels of intensity, without the threat of serious injuries which can occur more often in martial arts focused on punching and kicking.
