ZEN BUDOKAI
JUJITSU
Zen Budokai Jujitsu is a modern self-defense system based on Japanese jujutsu. Our techniques include throws, joint locks, chokes, submission holds, strikes, ground defenses, and non-lethal control techniques. We differ from many Brazilian Jiu-jitsu & MMA schools in that we focus more on self-defense from a standing position as opposed to competition ground fighting. Students learn not only how to defend themselves, but how to control threats (including weapons) and protect others. We are a diverse group with a long history in San Francisco. There is no macho “gym” culture and no previous experience is required.
