GO JIU BUJITSU
"The way of Hard & Soft Martial Arts"
Go Jiu Bujitsu was founded in 2007 by grandmaster, Doshu Mark J. Colangelo. Shuseki Shihan Jherie Araos is now the head instructor of the style at Setting Sun Dojo.
Go Jiu Bujitsu is composed of 3 traditional Japanese martial arts: Shotokan Karate, Judo, and Jiu Jitsu. We believe that these traditional styles offer a unique martial arts experience for all who train and practice them. Go Jiu Bujitsu provides that experience to all students who wish to learn the history and art of traditional Japanese martial arts.
