AT GUILDFORD JIU JITSU WE DESIGN PRACTICES AND "GAMES" THAT ACCURATELY REPRESENT "REAL" GRAPPLING SITUATIONS. THE RESULT? OUR STUDENTS QUICKLY DEVELOP EXCITING, HIGH-LEVEL GRAPPLING SKILLS. WE UNDERSTAND THAT PRACTICING IN REALISTIC ENVIRONMENTS, LEADS TO A MORE EFFICIENT AND EFFECTIVE TRANSFER OF SKILLS TO ACTUAL COMPETITION AND SPARRING PERFORMANCE. UNLIKE TRADITIONAL MODELS THAT RELY ON THE REPETITIVE PRACTICE OF "ISOLATED TECHNIQUES", WE ENCOURAGE LEARNING THROUGH A PERSONALISED APPROACH TO GRAPPLING.  FOR EXAMPLE, ATHLETES WITH DIFFERENT BODY TYPES OR PHYSICAL CAPABILITIES ARE ENCOURAGED TO DEVELOP MOVEMENT SOLUTIONS THAT WORK FOR THEM, RATHER THAN CONFORMING TO A COACH'S "PRESCRIBED TECHNIQUE" OR "MOVE".​ BY ENCOURAGING OUR INDIVIDUAL ATHLETES TO ADAPT TO PROBLEMS DYNAMICALLY: CREATIVITY; IMPROVISATION; RESILIENCE AND ROBUSTNESS IN THEIR SKILLS EMERGE AT A FASTER RATE. MAKING THEM BETTER PREPARED TO COPE WITH UNEXPECTED CHALLENGES AND IMPROVING OVERALL PERFORMANCE. ALL OF WHICH IS ESSENTIAL FOR UNPREDICTABLE ENVIRONMENTS LIKE SELF-DEFENCE & COMBAT SPORTS. IF "REAL TRAINING" AND "PLAYING THE WHOLE GAME - LIVE" SOUNDS GOOD TO YOU, CONTACT US TODAY!
