Curriculum GJJS DOJO

 Our Product and Service (curriculum) is based on the following basic principles:
The established curriculum provides a 50% mental and 50% physical training experience, which in principle will be special tailored to ones individual needs.

In Western terms, mental training takes the form of anxiety control and the cultivation of a level of optimal mental arousal. The main purpose of practicing German Ju Jutsu is to incubate a sense of self-worth by presenting a structured activity in which students can measure their performance against agreed goals. Since the practice of Ju Jutsu involves working with other people, a secondary spin off is the sense of responsibility and respect generated by the need to depend on others.

The techniques are taught in a semi-informal, but completely controlled atmosphere, which instills a sense of discipline in all those who practice it. The highest priority during all training or class situations is the health and safety of all involved parties and training participants, which provides the foundation for the opportunity to change on both ends of the scale: being at present a victim or an offender. Any form of misuse during training or real life situations will not be tolerated and has strict consequences.
Attached to any physical training component is an equal mental component, which has to be trained and accomplished by the student. Ju Jutsu is a traditional Martial Art and in consequence, its techniques involve a potential risk to participants and third parties. This risk is minimized through the risk assessment of every student; the operation of a suitable syllabus for young people which omits those elements which could be used in situations outside of the GJJS Dojo; the presence of mental training which seeks to cultivate those attitudes conducive to a socially responsible attitude.
