To carry a weapon for the purpose of Self-Defence is Illegal. However, you may be justified in using "weapons of Opportunity" such as key chains, pens, hairbrush, or even a scrabble tile holder, against a larger, stronger, armed, or multiple opponent(s). Part of our R.E.A.L. (Resistance to Edged, Armed, & Lethal attacks) Fighting series, this is a three hour Self-Defence workshop that looks at how to maximise your chances of surviving deadly force assaults, by using techniques based on the traditional teachings of the "Yawara" and later "Kubaton" that you can adapt to many everyday objects, giving you an instant arsenal against surprise attacks and deadly force encounters. Book today, as seating is limited! 14+/ all welcome! Contact us to Register.

The few crests worn by Bissett Jiu-Jitsu are deeply important and symbolic of the ideals and philosophies of our Art. One of the allowable/ recognised crests open to students in Manitoba, is the Official Flag of Manitoba - The Red Ensign. In order to wear this patch, students must venture down to the Manitoba Legislative building, and partake in a tour (guided or self) and post about the experience. You can go anytime on your own, or with our group, in July.
