About Us
Atemi Ryu Ninjutsu is a street survival system that stresses efficiency, aggression and, above all, survival. This philosophy resulted in traditional elements of martial arts practice like forms, katas, and rules for competition, being omitted from the training.
This system also teaches techniques like headbutts, groin strikes, strikes to the back of the head, eye gouges, and throat strikes. All of which would be considered illegal in a sanctioned sport fight or martial arts competition.
We present a unique Close-Quarters Combat system that is a collective form of martial arts. We concentrate on teaching purely what works and has been proven to be effective.
Atemi Ryu Ninjutsu is a progressive multiform of martial science integrated into one effective system. We strongly recommend that everyone, including women and children, be able to defend themselves in this day and age.
We offer self defence training to kids, adults and groups.

At Atemi Ryu – Self Defence Academy, we do not negotiate on quality instruction. All instructors are required to complete a minimum of 2 years training before starting their instructor training. Instructor training is a 12-month process, where the potential instructor will be guided on how to present quality instruction.
The potential instructor will start with assisting during group classes, helping beginners learn the basics and teaching small groups under supervision. After 12 months, the potential instructor will undergo official instructor testing. This consists of a skill test under pressure, an instruction evaluation and finally a physical test.
After successfully completing all of the above, will the individual qualify as a fully certified Atemi Ryu instructor. Each Atemi Ryu instructor undergoes annual performance appraisals under strict penalty of instructor status revocation.
Reviews
“One the best decisions I could have made during lock down, was attending a session and immediately thereafter joining. If you want to know the real deal about protecting yourself in everyday life, this is the place to be. What started off as a random class has turned into a valuable life experience, if you need some serious real-life Street defence classes this is where you need to be. You will learn from the absolute best, at a pace that you can handle with a mountain of patience from the Academy”
