Claim this gymBarnet Ju Jitsu has been a fixture in the Barnet martial arts scene for over four decades, dedicated to teaching the traditional Japanese art of self-defence. While rooted in classic ju jitsu techniques, the club’s style has evolved into a comprehensive combat system that integrates striking, throws, and ground fighting. This development reflects a practical approach to self-defence, emphasising effectiveness in real situations rather than purely sportive or aesthetic aspects. The club operates out of the Community Hall on Grove Road in Cockfosters, maintaining a long-standing local presence. Training sessions are held twice weekly in the evenings, with classes running from 8pm to 10pm on Mondays and Wednesdays. Each session begins with warm-ups and stretching, followed by pad work focused on striking methods and break falls to safely learn how to fall. Students then progress through techniques tailored to their grade and experience level, encouraging steady development within the system. The club welcomes adults of all abilities, providing a structured environment for newcomers and seasoned practitioners alike. Drop-in attendance is permitted, with a modest fee per session and an annual licence and insurance charge. Barnet Ju Jitsu’s philosophy centres on the principle of Shinken Shobu Keiko, meaning “train as though your life depended on it,” highlighting a serious commitment to realistic training. Despite this, the atmosphere is described as ego-free and friendly, fostering mutual respect among members. The club’s longevity and consistent programme underscore its role as a reliable option for those in Greater London seeking a practical, traditional ju jitsu experience with an emphasis on self-defence.
