Martial Arts

All of the martial arts programs operated at the JCCC are affiliated with Japan, and are recognized by Martial Arts federations on both national and international levels. Over the six decades of its operation, we have produced winners and international competitors. Our instructors do much more than teach skills and techniques - they educate students in the tradition and discipline associated with these sports. Classes are catered to different skill levels and age groups. Class observation is recommended before registering for those who are not familiar with Martial Arts.
