International Jui-Jitsu Foundation Alice Springs

Personnel stationed in Malaya. Over the years, Professor Kam Hock Hoe's Jui-Jitsu Studio gained recognition for its effectiveness and practicality, attracting students from various backgrounds.

In 1977, Professor Kam Hock Hoe's son, Grandmaster Kam “Piccolo Hoe” Hock Chye, took over the studio and continued his father's legacy. Grandmaster Kam Hock Chye further expanded the reach of Jui-Jitsu by establishing the International Jui-Jitsu Foundation (IJJF) in Alice Springs, Australia. The IJJF Alice Springs branch became a hub for martial arts enthusiasts in the region, offering comprehensive training programmes for individuals of all ages and skill levels.

At the International Jui-Jitsu Foundation Alice Springs, students can expect to learn a variety of techniques over the course of their training. The emphasis is on throws, trips, striking, and locks, ensuring that students are well-rounded in their martial arts skills. It typically takes 5 to 10 years of dedicated training to achieve a black belt rank.

In addition to physical training, the IJJF also provides psychological training to prepare students to handle self-defence situations legally and respectfully. The focus is not only on the technical aspects of martial arts but also on developing mental resilience, discipline, and self-confidence.

One of the unique aspects of the IJJF is its sense of community. As a member of the IJJF community, individuals have the opportunity to connect with like-minded martial artists from different occupations, creating an extended family across Australia and its surrounding nations. This sense of camaraderie and support adds to the overall experience of training at the IJJF Alice Springs.

The roots of Jui-Jitsu can be traced back to the Samurai schools of ancient Japan. It was originally practised by the Samurai as a comprehensive system of martial arts and philosophy. Over time, Jui-Jitsu techniques evolved and were adapted for civilian self-defence purposes. Today, Jui-Jitsu is renowned for its swift effectiveness and is utilised by military and police special forces worldwide.

The International Jui-Jitsu Foundation Alice Springs carries on this rich tradition by offering authentic Japanese Jui-Jitsu training. The instructors at the IJJF Alice Springs have a deep understanding of the art and are dedicated to passing on their knowledge to their students.

Whether you are a beginner looking to learn self-defence techniques, someone seeking to improve their physical fitness, or an experienced martial artist looking to further develop your skills, the International Jui-Jitsu Foundation Alice Springs welcomes individuals of all backgrounds and abilities. Join us today and discover the world of Japanese Jui-Jitsu.
