About Us
 In
today’s society, where violence and a decline in moral values
seem to be on the increase, SAN DO JUTSU KARATE SCHOOL is a way
to prepare both mentally and physically for everyday stress and
the ultimate challenge we hope will never confront us.
More than
ever we need self-esteem and discipline to achieve personal
balance and realize our full potential. At
SAN DO JUTSU KARATE SCHOOL, teaching begins with respect --
respect for the instructor, respect for the other students, and
respect for the inner self.
At SAN DO JUTSU KARATE SCHOOL, we
train in every aspect of the art, starting with learning how to
fall safely. This is important not only in
the DOJO (training area), but will be invaluable in outside
situations. While we learn to fall
correctly, we also learn how to be in specific stances.
As we practice our stances, we learn various strikes and
how to properly combine them. We also learn
how to block and move from one stance into another.
Basic accomplishments come quite rapidly as training
continues. Some of the techniques can be
challenging, but can be fun and easy to learn.
As the student trains and practices, their ability to
concentrate increases as well. Self-defense
techniques are taught from the beginning.
 The
style of SAN DO JUTSU KARATE SCHOOL is rather unique and
practical. It incorporates three styles of
the JUTSU (gentle) arts. They are:
Tai-Jutsu, Aiki-Jutsu, and Jiu-Jutsu, and as an extra
Kempo karate has been added to the program.
1) Tai-Jutsu
is an all around method that uses the body’s natural movements
to avoid getting hit and at the same time preparing for a
counter attack. Tai-Jutsu has many varieties
of attack, such as grappling, throwing, and joint locking.
2) Aiki-Jutsu
is the art from which Aikido was developed.
Aikido means “way of harmony”. It bases its
concept on avoiding a conflict by neutralizing an attacker.
The art is known for its circular motions and its use of
ki (internal energy).
3) Jiu-Jutsu
is known as the art of flexibility. It was
because of the Jiu-Jutsu vast array of holds, locks and
strangulation techniques that many countries’ armed forces used
this as their base for unarmed combat.
4) Kempo
Karate is one of the Japanese martial arts which uses five
animal styles. These animals are the Tiger,
the Cobra, the Leopard, the Crane, and the Dragon.
Kempo combines hand, foot, elbow, knee, and head strikes.
The combination of these styles
allows students to defend themselves in not only one or two
ways, but in a variety of situations should the need arise.
This is what truly makes SAN DO JUTSU KARATE a very
useful, positive, and practical martial art.
Our students are seldom bullied or pushed around by others.
This doesn’t come from their defending ability, but their
inner strength and the confidence they project.
Our first rule is, “walk away, avoid a conflict” -- our
students are taught not to bully or provoke fighting, it must be
controlled and used ONLY as a last resort!
