MARTIAL ARTS AVAILABLE

Ichiban Dojo has worked hard to find and bring together the best martial arts clubs and instructors to form a unified and collaborative traditional martial arts dojo in Leeds. 
Whilst each martial arts club at Ichiban is run independently, students are encouraged to train across the various different martial arts offered, to learn, improve and grow. Each club recognises the limits of its art, and the benefits of cross training.

Aikido is a Japanese form of self-defence and martial art that uses locks, holds, throws, and the opponent's own movements.

 

Sport Aikido is practiced at Ichiban.

 Karate may be defined as a weaponless means of self defense. It consists of dynamic offensive and defensive techniques using all parts of the body to their maximum advantage.

Judo is a system of self defense, a physical and mental discipline, and an Olympic Sport. Judo was founded in 1882, in Japan, by Professor Jigoro Kano, who envisioned it as a way of becoming physically and mentally fit through disciplined training.

Jiu Jitsu is a martial art based on the traditional styles of Jiu Jitsu that originated and developed in medieval Japan.
It is a progressive martial art that offers a means of personal and physical development, as well as an effective system of self-defence. We teaches the modern and unique Shorinji Kan system of Jiu Jitsu.
