Are you the owner of Bishop Challoner ju-jitsu club?
And Judo. Bishop Challoner Ju-jitsu Club focuses on teaching traditional Ju-jitsu techniques, which include strikes, throws, joint locks, and ground fighting. Our instructors are highly experienced and skilled in the art, ensuring that students receive top-quality instruction.
We offer classes for individuals of all levels of experience, from beginners who have never practised martial arts before, to advanced practitioners looking to refine their skills. Our training environment is inclusive and welcoming, fostering a sense of community and camaraderie among our members. We pride ourselves on creating a mixed gender atmosphere, encouraging everyone to learn and grow together.
Located in the heart of Birmingham, our club reflects the vibrant energy of the area. We train at the Bishop Challoner Sports Centre, which provides a spacious and well-equipped facility for our sessions. With a focus on self-defence, physical fitness, and personal growth, our club offers a holistic approach to Ju-jitsu training.
The history of Bishop Challoner Ju-Jitsu Club dates back to the early 1990s when Sensei Phil Hudson established the club. Over the years, the club has evolved and grown, adapting to changes and challenges. In 2006, the club switched its affiliation to the British Ju-jitsu Association GB, the governing body for Ju-jitsu in the UK.
Today, Richard Doughty is the sole instructor and club manager, carrying on the legacy of the club with enthusiasm and dedication. Under his leadership, the club has thrived, benefiting the local community for over 25–30 years. Despite the temporary closure due to COVID-19 lockdown regulations, the club has seen a surge in new members since reopening, including a record number of female students.
At Bishop Challoner Ju-jitsu Club, our mission is to provide a 21st-century education in Ju-jitsu, combining innovative techniques and fresh methodologies. We are committed to creating an engaging, respectful, and rewarding learning environment for our students. Our goal is to not only teach the physical aspects of Ju-jitsu but also instil values such as discipline, confidence, and self-improvement.
