ABOUT INTERNATIONAL KAWAISHI JU-JITSU

IKJJ is set up to preserve and promote the Kawaishi system worldwide.

The Kawaishi system is open to all martial artists, who would like to study and get graded into the system.

However Judoka’s have a big advantage here, in the way of gaing significant RPL’S, towards a grading.

​

 

Benefits of being a member of the IKJJ gives you the ability to get graded and teach a Ju Jitsu system alongside your normal martial art. And being part of a larger group who will support, help, guide and advise you.

 

​

IKJJ Structure

International Kawaishi Jujitsu is managed by a board of directors who by joint decision appoint a Head of School. Functions of the school are executed by Commission of the Head of School. The head of school may commission various board members only to oversee tasks either permanently or temporally as he or she so determines. 

The current positions commissioned by the Head of School are as follows . . .

  • Dean/ President- 1st adjutant to Head of School.

  • Scrutineer - Senior examiner of students, instructors and other grading standards matters.

  • Registrar - keeper of journals, registers, minutes and public policy documents.
