## Goshin Ju Jitsu

Ages 8–17 · $90–$110/term

As there is no single creator of Goshin Jujutsu, per se, the name of the style refers to systems which are rooted in traditional Jujutsu, but also draw from Akido, Judo and Karate Do. The student is taught a continuous and on-going system that builds on itself. It presents situations that address different distances, different levels of aggression, and different levels of response.
