WORLD JUJITSU FEDERATION

INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS


 

  2006 was the 30th anniversary of the partnership formed within the federation between UK and Italy, it was also the 30 anniversary of the birth of SAMURAI magazine in Italy. To mark this occasion a international friendship congress was organised where WJJF clubs from around the world could come and learn jujitsu techniques from some of Europe's for most jujitsu instructors.

It was my great pleasure to attend this congress and also to have the chance to teach some of the many students who came. I would like to thank Soke Clark for this once in a lifetime opportunity an occasion which i will never forget.

The following are some of the images from the congress and the time we spent in and around Tuscany in Italy.
