Adding Kickboxing to a Jujitsu Curriculum!


Recommended Posts

I have recently added our Kickboxing program in with our Jujitsu Program. The results have been wonderful. Our class is 1 1/2 hours long we now train about 30 minutes of class on kickboxing techniques. The students really enjoy it and this is for several reasons. One they love the thai pads, two the cardio that comes with some of the kickboxing drills is awsome, three a better sense of striking, kicking, kneeing, elbows, and a different look at clinch fighting.

 

The class runs beautifully, and the two programs totally compliment each other, we are just having wonderful results.

 

What do you think about doing this?

 

Do you currently train at a school thats cover Mixed Arts such as this?

 

Let me know!!

 

Thanks

I used to train with an instructor who mixed striking and grappling on the same class and was very good.

 

The only thing I advice is that time to time try to specialize the class.. maybe one day do a Full kickboxing class then the next a just grappling so you can cover more in depth the striking in one class and the grappling in the other.

sound more like muay thai than kickboxing. What I mean is the elbows and knees.

"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain." ~Frank Herbert, Dune

We do specialized topics some by the day, some by the week and some in a 3 month spread. Of course its not just turning out good just because, I have my Instructor who I ask advice all of the time and for his opinions on my training methods or should I say our training methods hahaha. You can tell he has rubbed off on me and I'm very glad that he has given me the abilities to run these classes the way he runs his. As far as it sounding more like muay thai, well you see my instructor was a muay thai instrucotr also but he also mixed his class a bit so we just refer to it as kickboxing but its truley based on the AWSOME techniques of muay thai and Sagawa Kara Fu mixed blend, then the over all class is Jujitsu, San Do Shootfighting techniques and then the stand up from the Muay Thai and Sagawa Kara Fu. Together with the curriculum that is being taught it is a very well rounded program and the students are loving it, one because they get straight to the point and two they are havinging a blast well getting an awsome workout.

My JJ class does some striking but not so much Kickboxing - or any style in particular - but I enjoy those mixed lessons. Thing is - although I am a relative beginner in JJ I have been doing Karate since I was 'ickle so I usually teach the finer points on striking techniques - lol
