LITTLE LEGENDS – 6 to 10 years
Little Legends combine Judo elements with fitness and games to provide a fun learning environment. The program promotes self confidence, fitness and improved co-ordination. Through the program students will learn basic throwing and wrestling techniques, including how to fall and roll safely.

Session times:  Saturdays 1pm to 2pm (During Term Time)

BUSHI  – 11 to 15 years
Bushi are taught fundamental self defence skills in a non-competitive but physically active and non-aggressive way. Through the program students will learn techniques and concepts that will enable them to manage threatening environments and protect their personal safety.

Session times:  Saturdays 2pm to 3:30pm*

                         Wednesdays 6:30pm to 8pm*

SAMURAI – 16+ years (adults)
Open to students 16 years and over, Box Hill Jiu Jitsu's Samurai classes offer a complete self defence program. This program promotes the use of mind and body together to maximise control and technique efficiency.

Through the program students will learn self defence techniques against different types of physical and weapons attacks. Although the program teaches a fighting system that is based on traditional and realistically tested techniques, emphasis is placed on self discipline and students are educated in the responsible use of the skills and knowledge they acquire.

Session times:  Saturdays 3pm to 5pm*
                         Wednesdays 7pm to 9pm*

*Outside of school terms, classes will include Bushi students, the dojo has open training from 2pm to 5pm on Saturdays and 6:30pm to 9 pm on Wednesdays.
