To celebrate our first year in our premises we have held a party for both Junior classes. It was attended by all but two children who had other functions to attend. It took the form of an 'Old Fashioned ' one with games such as 'bobbing for apples, the Taste Game, Pass the Parcel,  etc followed by a buffet meal and jelly and Ice Cream. The children left several shattered instructors who organised and supervised the event. As usual the Head of catering Helen Roberts excelled. 

Sensei Robert Rebanks 4th Dan is Chief  Instructor for the Sunday Juniors, ably assisted by Stuart Warburton 2nd Dan 

Sensei Mark Faulkner 2nd Dan is the Instructor for the Wednesday Juniors assisted by Brenda Hudson 4th Dan  and Shaun Taylforth 1st Dan  .

Ju-Jitsu is self rewarding. 
You gain self confidence, health and fitness and discipline in the art of Ju-jitsu
