Shin Sekai Ju-Jitsu
Age-old combat for a New World
About Us
Here at Shin Sekai Ju-Jitsu Dojos we train in the ancient art of traditional Japanese Ju-Jitsu (not to be confused with the competitive sport of Brazilian Jiu-jitsu). Ju-Jitsu is a martial art which has been used for many centuries by the Japanese Samurai warriors. We bring Ju-Jitsu bang up to date as a formidable self defence system that is as effective on the streets today as it was on the battlefields centuries ago. If you are interested in improving your fitness and learning tried and tested self defence techniques, get in touch with us today.

Sensei Yoan Stoyanov - 2nd Dan (Nidan)
I began my martial arts journey in 2004 with ITF Taekwondo reaching the grade of blue belt. I then moved to a more combat orientated Goshin Ryu Ju-Jitsu in 2010, achieving the grade of Shodan/1st Dan black belt in 2018. I have been an instructor since then, training under Sensei Garcia and Sensei Lamb. I have additionally briefly trained in Wing Chun, Kendo, WT Taekwondo and Taijiquan. Currently I am cross-training in Aikido and Brazilian Ju-Jitsu. Despite the variety, Japanese Ju-Jitsu remains my primary style with lessons and wisdom borrowed from each art. I am currently based in Romania with regular visits to the UK to continue my training with Shin Sekai Ju-Jitsu.DBS checked, First Aid certified and safeguarding qualified.
