Mt Hutton - Newcastle NSW
Chief instructor: Lynn Farmer
Contact: 0415 452 846, lynnfarmer@dodo.com.au
Lynn has been training in Judo since 1975 (Shodan), Ju Jitsu since 1990 (Sandan) and Kobudo since 1998 (Shodan). Lynn is a member of the International Close Combat Instructors Association and is a National committee Member for the Australian Ju Jitsu Association.
The school started in 1996 by Lynn & Steve. Members were from the Williamtown Ju Jitsu Club which operated on the RAAF base until restricted access to civilians made that club close down.
Ha Ya TSume Ryu is an adults-only club (members must be over 18), where members train in Ju Jitsu and some Kobudo. Training is centred around self-defence rather than sport. The syllabus covers throws, ground work, joint locks, pressure points, strikes, kicks, blocks, weapons and self defense reaction work both armed and unarmed. |
