Red Rose Ju Jitsu Club

Red Rose Ju Jitsu Club, located in Morecambe, Lancashire, is a renowned martial arts school and community centre that specialises in traditional and modern Ju Jitsu, as well as the teaching of self-defence. With a rich history and experienced instructors, Red Rose Ju Jitsu Club offers a comprehensive training programme for individuals of all ages and skill levels.

Ju Jitsu, one of the oldest forms of unarmed combat, was introduced to the UK in 1899, making it the first martial art to be practised in the country. With a wide range of techniques, some dating back over a thousand years, Ju Jitsu equips practitioners with a diverse repertoire, including attacking pressure points, vulnerable areas, and joints with strikes or kicks, grappling and joint locking, as well as throws and takedowns. While Ju Jitsu can be deadly, the club emphasises the use of minimum force necessary in training.

Led by the Founder & Chief Instructor, Prof. Andy Manwaring 8th Dan, a personal student of the late Prof. Bill Rankin 10th Dan Ju Jitsu/Budo, Red Rose Ju Jitsu Club ensures high-quality instruction and guidance for its members. The club holds VIP status from the Sports Council and is registered as a non-profit organisation with the Inland Revenue, holding Community Amateur Sports Club Status.

In addition to Ju Jitsu, the club also offers KyuJutsu, the Japanese art of archery. KyuJutsu, known as the “art of archery,” was a vital skill for the samurai class during feudal Japan. With a focus on the traditional Japanese martial art of wielding a yumi bow, members have the opportunity to learn and practise this ancient skill.

Red Rose Ju Jitsu Club is affiliated with several national and international organisations, including the UK Bugei Organisation, Kilohana Europe, KyuJutsu International, and the American JuJitsu Institute. These affiliations ensure that the club stays connected to the broader martial arts community and provides members with opportunities for further growth and development.

Whether you are looking to learn self-defence, enhance your physical fitness, or simply engage in a unique and historic martial art, Red Rose Ju Jitsu Club offers a welcoming and supportive environment. With a range of membership options and training times available, individuals can find a programme that suits their needs and schedule.
