Kempo for short, Aiki
Kempo Jiu Jitsu is a modern mix of a number of ancient arts. It contains elements of Jiu Jitsu, Karate,
Kung Fu, Tai Chi and Shiatsu, including self-defence, internal balance and
healing skills. Our style of
kempo is regarded as a “soft” martial
art – which means that is doesn’t require lots of physical strength or
involve regular abrupt physical movements. Strictly, this is not a self
defence class – and in any case no self defence class is a substitute for keeping
yourself out of trouble. However,
training in Kempo is based
upon self-defence, and will teach you useable self-defence skills. Kempo should help you out if common sense
didn’t! Normal everday fitness is enough to practice Kempo, and Kempo will further help you improve
your personal fitness and health – most people also find that it does a lot
to reduce stress and improve their self-awareness. Again however, it’s not strictly a fitness
regime – we practice our martial art because we enjoy it. Bucks Kempo, (formerly called Marlow Kempo), is a
member of the British Kempo Society;
our instructor, Guy Gratton, received his dan grade (black belt) and
instructors qualification from the BKS, and we also occasionally have guest
instructors both from BKS and elsewhere.
