What is Jujutsu?
We teach an advanced syllabus of Jujutsu (Ju Jitsu / Jiu Jitsu) with a combination of practical self-defence and sport jujutsu, often referred to as "Old School".
Jujutsu is the most effective and complete martial art for self-defence & real-life.
Battle tested, honed through sport, with traditional roots.
The TJK syllabus has been developed over 45 years by Sensei Ross Iannoccaro, 8th Dan Jujutsu, 2nd Dan Judo and 1st Dan Karate. Safety, Respect and Loyalty are woven throughout the TJK association and are key components of our club values at TJK Tewkesbury.

What to bring?
To begin, we advise you wear comfortable gym gear such as shorts / leggings and t-shirt. After your first month of training, we will advise you to purchase one of our training uniforms (Gi). Bringing a bottle of water is also recommended. If you have any health concerns, please inform the class sensei on arrival and bring any medication such as an inhaler if it may be needed. Please bring emergency contact info with you. You are welcome to bring a friend too, and this is often recommended but not required.
Never trained before?
That’s OK! All new students are taught separately from the rest of the class and will be taught practical basic skills. Beginners are encouraged to work within their own capabilities and at their own pace in an encouraging and friendly environment. All new beginners are placed on the introductory program.
We often have students join as a fun and engaging form of exercise. We welcome both women and men aged 16+ and all abilities. With our new classes in Tewkesbury, there is no better time to start than today!
