Martial Arts University 2007 • Group Shot

The International Federation Of Ju –Jutsuans
Martial Arts University 2008
In Memory of O’Sensei Michael De Pasquale Sr.

 

As was in tradition in times gone by….great warriors would come together at one place and pit themselves against one another.

Fighting, learning and performing feat feats of skill through their individual martial arts expertise.

This tradition lives on through the International Federation of Ju-Jitsuans annual weekend of warriors.

This year to be held on the weekend of November 7th – 9th.

Here is your opportunity to be recognized. Along with the training, there will be our world-renowned Bushido, Shogun and Samurai award banquet.

These awards are given to those warriors who are deserving of them.

The Bushido awards are given to black belts that are recommended and hold their rank in good standing.

The Samurai award is given to a veteran warrior (25 years or more) and should be recommended by his Master and/or students.

Those who receive the prestigious Shogun Award must be actively involved in the arts for 40 years or more.

Those returning award recipients will receive in each category: Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum awards.

This year we are also adding an outstanding martial art achievement award for children to be given under the recommendation of their instructor.

Along with our intense defense seminars by many well renowned martial artists there will also be special seminars designed strictly for children.
