The Hawaii Zenyo Jujutsu Kai (HZJK) Women's Assault Prevention Course is a single 4 hour afternoon class of intensive self-protection, and assault prevention training.

This course is instructed by Prof. Steve McLaughlin, with 35 years Women's Assault Prevention and Self-Defense teaching experience. He is a Shihan of the Bushidokan Federation, Sensei of the HZJK, 7th Degree Black Belt in DanZan Ryu JuJitsu and holds Black Belts in several other martial art disciplines.

The HZJK Women's Assault Prevention Course has been in continuous presentation at various martial art schools in the U.S. for the past 32 years. It has won awards and certificates from women's groups in Las Vegas and Reno, Nevada. The techniques and information presented are based on the latest police reports on violent criminal behavior and Social Work research on therapeutic intervention with survivors of assault and domestic violence. The techniques presented are simple, practical, effective and proven methods from principles of DanZan Ryu JuJitsu (DZR) and can be accomplished by anyone with little or no previous training or physical conditioning.

Each class is 40% Assault Prevention lecture and 60% Self-Defense and Self-Protection techniques. Self-protection consists of methods to keep you from hurting yourself, and self-defense emphasizes techniques to use in the event of an attack. Training is done in a controlled, safe, slow, environment until the techniques can be performed realistically.

Realism is a key component of learning Self-Defense correctly. You will learn how to assess, avoid and escape many situations. You will learn how to settle fear and panic with proper breathing. You will learn to use assertive voice control. Also included in the course are question and answer sessions, lectures followed by hands-on examples, a "field trip" into a parking lot for hands on training in vehicles. There is no substitute for realistic practice of actual self-defense techniques. You must practice until the moves can be done without thinking.

The DanZan Ryu JuJitsu system was founded in Hawaii in the early 1900's by Professor H.S. Okazaki. A martial arts master famous world wide for this unique and encompassing system of self-defense. His early Women's Self-Defense Course (Fujin Goshin no Maki) developed in the 1920's was one of the very first in the world. His training course for the Honolulu Police Department in 1929 is still a model used to train Police Departments around the world today. Professor Okazaki was equally famous as a gifted massage therapist treating such people as President Franklin Roosevelt. His massage and healing legacy continues to this day.

Under our new format you will receive your "HZJK Certificate of Completion" upon passing the physical assault prevention examination at the conclusion of the class. Many employers will reimburse you for the course after receiving this certificate.
