MUSHIN BUDO is an independent martial arts association in the UK whose members are mostly Ju Jitsu clubs. The association exists to support and assist its members and is not a commercial venture.

What does it provide? High grade Ju Jitsu instruction, insurance, syllabus, grading books, certificates, seminars and other benefits including no interference in the running of its member clubs, no huge fees for gradings and no politics. Mushin Budo Association aims to promote the art and science of Ju Jitsu as well as the associated benefits of fitness, confidence and self-control.

At a recent black belt grading held at Combat Ju Jitsu's training venue students yet again impressed the grading panel with their dedication and performance. Congratulations to Daryl Moore on his Sho-dan and Matthew Barrett on his Sho-dan Ho.

In the words of Jigoro Kano

"... resisting a more powerful opponent will result in your defeat, whilst adjusting to and evading your opponent's attack will cause him to lose his balance, his power will be reduced, and you will defeat him. This can apply whatever the relative values of power, thus making it possible for weaker opponents to beat significantly stronger ones. "
