Gillibrand Primary School recently welcomed Shinpo Mixed Martial Arts for an engaging and energetic assembly focused on Jiu Jitsu and self-defence. Pupils learned how jiu jitsu can help keep them safe by building confidence, awareness, and respect for others, while understanding that self-defence is about avoiding conflict and protecting themselves responsibly. The session was fun, interactive and inspiring, with many children joining the senseis on the mat and having a turn. We even got to see Mr Edgar and Miss Watson learn some new techniques!
