Karate Tae Kwon Do
Report
Our specifically designed curriculum creates a cohesive unity between the Japanese and Korean art forms. Students study traditional forms (kata/hyung) from both karate-do and tae kwon do. Therefore, they receive a well rounded martial arts education focusing on the powerful upper body techniques of karate as well as the dynamic lower body techniques of tae kwon do.
Judo/Jujitsu
Report
At Fernandina Dojo LLC, we believe that a well-rounded approach to martial arts is the best approach which is exactly why we focus on both the incredible throwing techniques (nage waza) of Judo and the formative groundwork (ne waza) of Jujitsu. The founder of Judo, Jigoro Kano, strongly believed in the concept of "seiryoku zen'yo" or maximum efficiency with minimal effort.
Aikido
Report
As practitioners, we examine the art of countering an attack by using our assailant's force against them. This can be manifested through direct (irimi) or indirect (tenkan) action culminating in a throw, joint lock, or submission. Traditional weapons such as the wooden sword (bokken), knife (tanto), and short staff (jo) are integral to the study and understanding of Aikido.
Iaido
Report
Iaido is the art of drawing, attacking/defending, and putting away the Japanese sword (katana). This is a highly technical and exacting martial art where the waste of energy, movement, or blocking could cost your life. In modern times, students begin training with a wooden sword (Bokken) and eventually move on to a non-sharp blade (Iaito) for safety.
Kobudo
Report
At Fernandina Dojo LLC, students will study the art of Kobudo (Ancient Martial Way). The traditional Okinawan weapons are blended into the standard Karate/Tae Kwon Do curriculum and cover such items as the bo (long staff), tonfa/tuifa (short handle), sai (truncheon), kama (hand sickle), and nunchaku (wooden flail).
