Gi Yu Dojo - Dayton

Martial arts and self-defense training for adults and children

We teach the classical Japanese Martial Art of Kobudo, the fighting style used by the Samurai and Ninja. The Koryu arts studied are combat Martial Arts, not sport oriented. These were precursors to Martial Arts such as Aikido, Jujitsu, Judo, Kendo, Iaido and Karate....etc. The emphasis of Kobudo is placed on timing, distancing, and technique rather than speed or strength in order to overcome an aggressor. The art of Ninjutsu develops your physical, emotional, and spiritual being, which allows you to overcome obstacles in life. We teach hand to hand combat (striking, grappling, standing, and ground techniques), as well as traditional and modern weapons including swords, staffs, knifes and firearms training.
