 Traditional Japanese Jiu Jitsu in Exeter

 

Discover the power of technique over strength with traditional Japanese Jiu Jitsu – a martial art designed to defend against one or multiple opponents, regardless of their size, weight, or gender. With roots in ancient battlefield combat, this system has evolved into an effective, modern form of self-defence.

 

At Exeter Martial Arts, we teach Seishin Mizu Ryu Jiu Jitsu, a practical and well-rounded style. Which has clubs around the country. You’ll learn to defend against punches, grabs, weapons, and more – all in a structured, supportive environment.

 

Led by Expert Instruction

Our classes are led by Dr. Richard Catterick, UK Chief Instructor and a 7th degree black belt under the British Ju-Jitsu Association Governing Body (BJJAGB). With nearly 40 years of experience, Dr. Catterick brings deep knowledge and passion to every session.

 

Our dojo is proud to be a BJJAGB Centre of Excellence for the South West.

 

Friendly, Inclusive Training for All Levels

Whether you're a complete beginner or an experienced martial artist, you'll find a welcoming community here. Our students range in age and background, with a healthy balance of men and women training together. We also work closely with Exeter College Jiu Jitsu club.
