What is Ju Jitsu?.
What is New Spirit Ju Jitsu?.

dot_clear.gif (43 bytes)New Spirit School Of Ju Jitsu is the name adopted by Sensei Ramsdale for his clubs,  we are now a fully independent martial arts school . Since becoming independent, we have gone from strength to strength, class sizes are growing, and we have thriving adult classes, with a number of excellent lady students amongst them. The continued growth of the classes is providing some excellent new Black Belts, and many of these are now becoming proficient instructors in their own right!.

dot_clear.gif (43 bytes)New Spirit is based in North Derbyshire and currently Sensei Ramsdale runs classes at two different locations on three different days. The days and times of the classes are listed below, some classes are for Juniors or Seniors only, and others are mixed classes, for further details please ring the instructors at the phone numbers listed, or send them an Email.

dot_clear.gif (43 bytes)On Sunday 25th February 2001 a weapons course was held by New Spirit Ju Jitsu at Pilsley Miners Welfare for juniors of Brown Belt and above, and adults of any grade. The event was well attended, and everyone seemed to have a good time. The course lasted three hours with a break half way through for refreshments provided by the Welfare staff. I recorded a few clips with my camcorder, and have taken a number of pictures off the video tape - these can be seen on the course photos page.
