Active martial arts community holds sessions at Tofield Legion

An active Tofield Ju-Jitsu and Karate Club with students of all ages gather at the Tofield Legion every Wednesday evening and Saturday morning to practice their martial art technique.

In Taiyoku Ju-Jitsu, the term “Taiyoku” means “all encompassing, completeness and integrative balance.” It’s a simple term with an underlying message that deals with what and how, but also why this style of martial art is practiced.

The outside fighting techniques of Karate are combined with the inside fighting ju-jitsu kata techniques to form a well-rounded or balanced martial art system.

The martial arts are the ideal form of exercise for many people today who are aware that they would like to exercise at the same time learning how to protect themselves.
