Bujinkan Taka-Seigi Dojo San Diego teaches powerful and practical martial arts called Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu and Shinken Taijutsu.
Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu is rooted in nine ancient Japanese warior traditions that were utilized by the clans in feudal Japan to establish and maintain a power base. These classical/traditional Japanese martial arts combine close-in and long range fighting, joint-locking, pressure points, ground fighting, ancient and modern weapons, and armor (yes, armor) and are what make Bujinkan a complete fighting system. The modern sports of mixed martial arts try to recreate what was discovered across battlefields over hundreds of years. In addition to a superior system of fighting, Bujinkan integrates the mental and spiritual aspects of fighting, self defense, survival, and living.
At Bujinkan Taka-Seigi Dojo San Diego, we're a clan that takes care of one another. Some of us are on the journey of the warrior-philosopher and warrior-scholar. Some are focused on self defense. Some of us are just enjoying training together. We're all having a great time!
We have students that drive over an hour to attend class. They have found what they are looking for, now you need to find out if it is what you are looking for.
Contact us at 619-247-7656 to find out. It's up to you to take the first step!
Our Dojo
Taka-Seigi Dojo | San Diego, CA was started in 2005 with a specific goal in mind - a place where people of good character can come together, train each other, and become stronger than we are - to be able to move through life more powerfully.
Our students come from all walks of life - business owners, students, combat veterans, Ph.D's, computer professionals, special forces, intelligence professionals, etc. They all have one thing in common - they've found what they're looking for in a martial art and in a training hall. From self defense, to traditional Japanese martial art disciplines such as kenjutsu (sword) or bojutsu (staff), or looking for more than what they found in the mixed martial arts world, they have found it here.
We have a beautiful training facility of over 7000 sq ft with dedicated areas for our training and classrooms for courses such as music, calligraphy, and language. We are also located next to a wooded area and can easily train outdoors when appropriate or if we feel like it.
Our training goes from the highly traditional to the completely modern. It is also stuctured to accomodate people of all skill levels. If you're a little nervous about training, it's ok, we're here to help you through it! If you're looking for hard, rough and tumble training, good, we enjoy and excel at that!
Our dojo is built for working professionals, real people with real lives. Involvement of the whole family is welcome and encouraged.
All people of good character are welcome to join us.
