Traditional Values. Practical Skills. Lifelong Growth.
About
Building confidence, capability, and character through authentic Japanese martial arts.
Hozan Jujutsu is a community-focused dojo dedicated to helping everyday people develop practical self-defence skills, confidence, resilience, and lifelong personal growth. Our training is rooted in Tsutsumi Hozan Ryu Jujutsu, a traditional Japanese martial art preserved through the respected de Jong lineage, one of Western Australia's longest-standing martial arts traditions.
Unlike many activities that rely on athleticism, speed, or physical strength, Jujutsu teaches students to use leverage, timing, balance, positioning, and technique to overcome challenges effectively. This makes training accessible and beneficial for people of all ages, sizes, and experience levels.
Our classes combine authentic martial arts principles with modern teaching methods, providing a structured pathway that develops practical self-defence, fitness, body awareness, discipline, and mental resilience. Students learn progressively through hands-on training, building confidence and capability one step at a time.
More than just learning techniques, our dojo is built on a culture of respect, encouragement, and continuous improvement. We believe every student has the potential to grow, and our supportive community helps people challenge themselves, overcome obstacles, and achieve goals both on and off the mat. This cooperative approach to learning has been a cornerstone of the de Jong tradition for decades.
Whether you're looking to learn self-defence, improve fitness, gain confidence, return to martial arts, or begin a new personal challenge, you'll find a welcoming environment where beginners are supported and lifelong learning is encouraged.
