Looking for an established traditional martial arts school which offers practical self defense training, and is not interested in competition? You've come to the right place!

Since 1990, Ju-Jitsu Dojo of Columbia has provided Japanese ju-jitsu-based, practical self-defense training to men and women from all walks of life. Current and former students consistently remark that the type and quality of training we provide is very difficult to find.

If you want to learn how to:

avoid threatening situations

respond to lower-level threats

defend yourself against a wide variety of armed and unarmed attacks

come train with us. No prior experience is required. Individuals of all sizes and ages, including those with disabilities, train here - so can you!

In addition to learning to protect yourself, the way we train will increase your:

endurance

strength

coordination

cardiovascular fitness

We also offer youth classes, where our younger students develop situational awareness and learn the fundamentals of self-protection. Good values and character development are also an integral part of our training program.
