ju dachi martial arts
Chelmsford
Ju Dachi Martial Arts Association was launched in 2007 and its goal is to
promote and teach the true meaning and traditions of Martial Arts in a
non-political manner in the UK, by providing a service based on equal
opportunities for all. Our mission statement truly represents who we are as a
company. All our instructors are passionate about karate and believe in a simple
motto. Our motto is simple ‘Karate for all’. Everyone has the right to learn
Karate in a fun and safe atmosphere for all. Below you can read our mission
statement in greater detal. Promoting The True Traditions of Martial Arts What
is the true meaning of Martial Arts? This is quite a complex topic. It is a sad
fact that over the years many Martial Art systems, whether it is Japanese,
Chinese, Korean, etc… have become seriously diluted in order to make things
easier for their students for the pure purpose of making money, or these systems
have been diluted by individuals removing a lot of content and only teaching
things that mattered to them. What these individuals forget is that their system
had a foundation from which they learnt. By removing that foundation, their
students train missing some of the important content, without the whole
knowledge. When the student becomes an instructor, then they do the same and
thus over the years Martial Arts such as Karate, Judo, Wing Chuan etc, become
diluted and knowledge is then lost. We, at the Ju Dachi Martial Arts Association
believe in preserving the true traditions, techniques and their meanings. This
is why it takes at least 4 to 5 years to achieve 1st Dan Black Belt. We are very
proud that we are preserving this knowledge and developing our systems to be
effective in the real world, while never forgetting the foundations taught, and
the history and origin of the martial art. Teaching In A Non Political Manner We
only care about training and learning the true meanings of martial arts. We
leave all the politics outside the Do Jo and concentrate on the training,
learning, mastering ourselves and our students. Did you know that the only
reason Karate is not in the Olympics is because there are so many organisations,
and they are too divided? Our approach is simple, we teach martial arts in a
traditional manner and with a practical approach for today’s day and age. We are
just happy with you training at our school and being part of our martial arts
family. We leave all the silly, childish bickering and debate outside the Dojo,
and we always encourage our students to try and learn any other martial arts. We
also open our doors to other associations, such as RKAGB, who occasionally run
courses for us. Equal Opportunities For All All our students are given fair
opportunities regardless of background, religion, race, sex or age. In our
school of Martial Arts, all our students are taught and treated as individuals.
Children learn in a fun, caring and safe atmosphere, as well as our adult
students. We do not tolerate or accept racism, sexism, bullying, etc in any way
shape or form, as this has no place in any Martial Art or healthy lifestyle. You
will find that all our students train hard and will offer any new student a warm
welcome. One of our mission statements is “Karate for all”, without any
discrimination. We also run schemes with local tenant halls, to improve healthy
lifestyle and keep children out of the streets in the community. All our
students will be given opportunities to take part in courses, events and exams.
Even though all students will have this opportunity, those who really stand out
will be given a chance to become a full time instructor, and eventually all the
support they need to run their own Ju Dachi Martial Arts club. At our school we
all work together, and rest together and students/parents or carers can talk to
the instructors directly at any time if they have any queries, or suggestions.
We want students to get involved, we listen, we act. We welcome feedback.
