About

​

Jikan Jikan is a small association of clubs with members and affiliations in the UK, Europe and Japan. The headquarters is Jikan Dojo located in East London, England.
​
The main theme of Jikan Kai is the practice and promotion of traditional Japanese budo as "a way of life". We have a special focus on realistic self-defence in addition to education on Japanese culture. While some members may participate in sport (especially children), we are not a sporting group. Jikan Kai is a non-political, friendly association of martial arts enthusiasts. The main arts practised are Karate-Do, Jujutsu and weaponry with high level Japanese and Okinawan mentors and affiliations. Other clubs and individuals are welcome to join our association. 
​
Some of the benefits include:
  • Members-only events in karate, jujutsu, iaido, bojutsu, kenjutsu and okinawan kobudo, regardless of your style.
  • Online resources - theory courses and video portals.
  • Promotion of your group in our social media and future publications.
  • Coaching qualifications (ongoing development)
  • Dan recognition/homologation. Subject to criteria.
  • Dan testing. Joint grading panel for karate and jujutsu
​
If you'd like to become a member, please write to admin@jikandojo.com to find out more.
 
Please be patient with us as this page is ongoing development.
