Seibukan Jujutsu
Seibukan Jujutsu is an effective and practical martial art developed for self-protection as well as personal development. Based on ancient tradition, Seibukan Jujutsu has been developed to meet the needs of the modern day warrior. It’s Japanese roots, philosophies, and the Seikendo healing art, make it unique among other systems. The name, Seibukan Jujutsu, describes the art. Seibukan means (Sei= correct, Bu= martial, Kan= house) the house of correct martial arts. Jujutsu means (Ju= flexible, Jutsu= art) flexible art.
The physical and self-defense aspect of Seibukan Jujutsu emphasize defense against armed and unarmed, single and multiple assailants. Gun, knife, club, rope, sword, long and short sticks are some of the weapons used in Seibukan Jujutsu to learn disarming techniques. In unarmed techniques called Taijutsu (body art), you learn escaping techniques, throws, chokes, grappling, joint locking, counter techniques, and ground defense. Seibukan Jujutsu makes its techniques effective and practical by using pressure points, kicks and strikes to the body as distractions, or to properly control and subdue an attacker. As a result you are conscious of avoiding unnecessary injuries.

There are also seven themes throughout the black-belt level training: the four elements of Fire (Shodan), Water (Nidan), Earth (Sandan) and Wind (Yondan) culminating in the Void (Godan), and moving on to Consciousness (Rokudan) and finally Balance (Nanadan).Seibukan Jujutsu consists of twelve levels of study. The first five are the Kyu levels. These levels are preparation to become a black belt. During this time you find your own pace of learning, and setting and achieving goals through the practice of Awareness, Assessment, Action®. The last seven are the Dan levels. These are the black belt levels. In a progressive way, each level has a theme, self-defense techniques, and self-development concepts to study and put in practice.
The three fundamental principles in Seibukan Jujutsu are Awareness, Assessment and Action. When taking appropriate action, there is a process to follow: No Challenge, No Resistance, No Injury, and whenever it is necessary to apply physical techniques, the elements to make this action effective are Distraction, Angles and Leverage.
Seibukan Jujutsu offers you opportunities to develop physical skills for effective self-defense, thereby increasing overall physical fitness, self-discipline, awareness and self-confidence. This system’s unique structure allows you to learn and progress at your own pace.

With consistency, perseverance and commitment to daily practice, you can experience the unification of body, mind and spirit. This system evolves to meet the constant changing needs of society.
The philosophy of Seibukan Jujutsu becomes a part of you step by step. As they make the decision to move on to the next level, you feel and recognize the changes taking place in you.
