A close friend of mine and a true martial artist himself, he joined our school Ichinen Bridport in 2013. Trevor studied Jiu-Jitsu and Anti Terror Combat, which became BlackCombat later.

Trevor is a 1st Dan BlackCombat and 3rd Kyu Jiu-Jitsu. Beside that he was green belt in two Karate styles.

Trevor is a member of honour at Ichinen Bridport and we have a “Trevor Barton memorial award” for the most improved student of the year.Trevor we miss you all. R.I.P. my dear friend.

2023 our member Sam Saines was awarded to remark this special anniversary.

Sam who studies too Kung Fu, joined Ichinen Bridport Jiu-Jitsu in August 2018. Since than he has attended both of the Jiu-Jitsu classes. With the minors Sam is a great assistant and help to teach our precious kids group. At the adult class Sam achieved the rank of 3rd Kyu green Jiu-Jitsu.

Sam has been awarded several times the honour of „Martial Artist of the month“.

Explore the world through martial arts

If I wouldn't have all my various projects to work on and they need to be completed as planned... honestly another good plan is to travel the world. Just hitch hike in my Gi and visit a worldwide list of martial arts places. Dojos, events, important people and so on. 

Everybody could do so. Come and join Ichinen Bridport Jiu-Jitsu. Learn the basics and off you go!

Bridport Jiu-Jitsu master retired

Big change at Ichinen Bridport. Our Master Lewis A. Harris, 2nd Dan Jiu-Jitsu has retired from active training. Lewis trained with us since 2014, after he finished 8 years of Krav Maga training and was a 1st Kyu in Kyukoshin Kai Karate. He achieved the 2nd Dan in BlackCombat. Lewis will be 71 years and has trained active until now. Jiu-Jitsu at Ichinen Bridport keeps young!

He always supported everybody with his experience and great martial arts attitude. And he hardly ever missed a session. Even when he couldn't train he attended the class and watched. Now his membership upgraded to a membership of honour and Lewis will assist the club when required, such as gradings and special occasions. We all miss you on the mat and wish you all well for the future! Thank you Lewis for all your good work!

And now we go altogether to his favourite Indian, the Taj Mahal in Bridport and celebrate a bit. All the very best for the future Master Lewis!

Lewis graduated as 2nd Dan Jiu-Jitsu in 2022. Photo shows Master Horst Lindenau presents his certificate and his grading partners from left Mike Beaumont-Eves, Mark Butt and Paul Blake.

Jiu-Jitsu meets BlackCombat

 Jiu-Jitsu is a traditional Japanese martial art. Jiu-Jitsu is an allround combat system, which includes a wide range of techniques. Throws and locks are known, but kicks and strikes are of same importance. Beside these, we do nerve grips and a fair amount of mental training too.

With BlackCombat, the 1000s of Jiu-Jitsu skills have been put togehter like a magnifying glass and this time the focus is only and exclusive on self defence. This extract is called BlackCombat. 

Now you can learn BlackCombat self defence skills in Bridport too. Every Monday, Hospital Lane, 6 pm, free for beginners for the next 6 weeks!

As we say at Ichinen Bridport Jiu-Jitsu: No children - no future!

Get the training you deserve

In Munich/Germany, a man was beaten to death again by young violent offenders. As always after such a tragic incident, you quickly cry out for more police, more surveillance cameras, tougher punishments for perpetrators or, ideally, emigrate yourself to a safer place.

I mean, who feels threatened, can't always run away, who is traveling alone and in unsafe areas should arm himself personally against such incidents. The best way to do this is with well-founded training in an effective self-defense. Black Combat is superior to other systems because it does not teach a certain style, but is based on the skills and possibilities of the practitioner.

Technology and behavior are tailored to a specific situation. Of course, your own armament is trained within the legal possibilities as well as legal and psychological aspects of street fighting. Horst D. Lindenau, founder of Black Combat, passes on his own experience and that of his teachers in courses and nationwide seminars. Bookings and information please email to Horst D. Lindenau hdlindenau@hotmail.com

Happy new year to all martial artists all over the world.

 

Just another year is gone with the 2020 and if you are not making any changes to your action 2021 won't be much different.

As the legend master Bruce Lee said:"If you love life, don't waste time, for time is what life is made up of".

I wish you all a happy new year, with lots of training and love and peace!
