Senshido Martial Arts

In our style we study strategy and technique to be used in real self- defence situations and competition where desired. We are resilient, confident, transparent practitioners who are committed to the study of martial arts and its many variations of application. This is what we teach; our aim is to remain physically and mentally healthy, to encourage the study of many different forms of martial arts, to encourage knowledge and the passage of that knowledge, and above all, to be involved in our community in a helpful and purposeful manner. We are a freestyle (mixed) martial art that continues to adapt and evolve to our environment.

Regardless of the art or style, our teaching can be broken into two distinct areas of study that work in synergy with one-another.

• Physical & Psychological

The Physical aspect of our teaching represents our physiology and the way in which it works within the movements of martial arts. It can be broken into five (5) subgroups;

• Training Fundamentals
• Movement and Technique
• Control and Manipulation
• Strategy in Self-defence
• Quickness and Power

The second area is Psychological. It represents our critical thought processes, applied knowledge & understanding, communication, determination & spirit, theory, ethics and law. This is divided amongst five (5) subgroups;

• Exploration, Understanding & Instruction
• Applied Knowledge and Theory
• Endurance and Determination
• Adaptation & Versatility
• Combat Orientated Systems

The Senshido Martial Arts system, its teachings and what we strive for ultimately encompass the seven (7) essentials/ virtues of Bushido.

What is Virtue (Moral Excellence) – A virtue is a positive trait or quality deemed to be morally good and thus is valued as a foundation of principle and good moral being.

• Integrity
• Respect
• Courage
• Honour
• Compassion
• Honesty & Sincerity
• Duty & Loyalty
