About Us

An excellent 2023/24 academic year: Atemi Nationals 2023 winners, Randori Nationals 2024 winners, TJJF Instructor of the Year (Daniel Storer), and TJJF Club of the Year winners!

Cambridge University Jitsu Club is known for having a healthy mix of students and non-students. The club has proven to be especially popular this year, with over 250 signups in Freshers’ Week alone! The club is led by Sensei Daniel Storer supported by a team of eight senior and junior instructors, and a dedicated club committee.

The club provides an opportunity for students to release some stress, get fit, learn to defend themselves, take part in a number of cross-college social events and compete in the annual Varsity Match with Oxford University Jitsu Club.
