Do Jung Ishu, Akron Chapter

I'm looking for people who want to learn Do Jung Ishu, the Art of Fighting. We are a martial arts organiztion that has a history in Columbus, Ohio, going back to the 1970s.

I've been an instructor in DJI since 2012. I've recently relocated to the Akron area. I believe that real, quality, martial arts instruction should be affordable and accessible. I feel that a part of the stewardship of martial arts is making sure that it has a place in the community and is passed on to new people, so I do not charge for these classes.

This is not McDojo-style training. I will teach you how to hit hard, and efficiently. I wll teach you defense against people that are trying to attack you with intent.

Our techniques are inspired by American boxing, karate, escrima, fencing, and more esoteric martial arts, such as the trapping techniques from wing chun kung fu.

I will not be teaching you grappling. While I have a very basic grasp of the fundamentals of grappling, I'm not qualified to teach.

I'm looking for students that want to learn. If you're willing to work hard, I might have something to offer you.
