Why is the consistant close so important?

Posted by NESCJ on December 26, 2011 at 9:58am 2 Comments

I have been talking about consistant closing in class.  I am trying to get you to understand that your first bridge and 2nd bridge are your most important actions you can do in any defense.

If you keep these 2 bridges the same every time you will start to see the same positions on the arms when you shutdown. what could better than that seeing the same things over and over which makes your success in the attack much higher.

Things change in any attack quickly…

SMALL CIRCLE JUJITSU AND CROSS TRAINING

Posted by Brian Plunkett on December 16, 2011 at 12:35pm 0 Comments

One of the reasons that I love Small Circle Jujitsu is that it gives me motivation and great reason to cross-train.  Cross-training involves doing other activities or exercises with the goal of helping you train for your primary pursuit, such as Small Circle Jujitsu.  I have always tried to train as rigorously as possible in jujitsu class in order to get the most out of my limited time in class. I never get enough time in class though.  Over the years, I have had to come up with other ways…

Why I train at NESCJA

I have continued to train over the years at NESCJA and look to Sensei Ed Melaugh as a mentor because Small Circle Jujitsu is the most complete and practical self defense training that I have experienced.  We constantly challenge ourselves to get better and more efficient at defending all varieties of attacks including open hand attacks, grabs, punches, kicks, knife mugs (both moving and static), club, bat and machete attacks, both gun and assault rifle confrontations, and multiple attacker…

Best Self Defense School

Posted by Joseph M. Pires on December 10, 2011 at 5:52pm 0 Comments

Every time I come to class, I am convinced what I am learning from Ed Melaugh at New England Small Circle Jujitsu in Massachusetts (MA) is the best form of practicle self defense.  I met Ed Melaugh through a referral from Professor Dave Castoldi.  It only took one class to make me a believer. "This is the one!" 

Ed and his team have proven to me that no matter how strong, big, tall, male/female, or even rank... that anyone (in a short amount of time) can learn to protect themselves… Continue
