Jukaado Academy Of Martial Arts

Before we get in to this topic I feel it is important to let the readers be aware of my background or experience in this subject and then discuss the topic at length. I do not have any prior military or defense personnel training. I have been training in authentic and traditional martial arts of various countries for the last 30 years. Authentic martial arts training is the training which used to be provided to soldiers or warriors back then training in them is very close to understanding real life attack situations. Besides my extensive martial arts background I have been closely associated with providing specialized security to a number of famous personalities like film stars, sports personalities and other V.I.P's. Have also been part of setting up secure facilities from overseeing and set up of CCTV's, secure  fencing, barricades and so on. Have selected and trained employees for QRT's ( Quick Response Teams) for companies and Hotels. A QRT is a group of employees of ...

Conditioning is a very important part of our training at Jukaado. The above video is one of the variations of conditioning that we do at class. The golden rule of any conditioning process is to start slowly with softer objects or easier methods and gradually progress to more intense training methods. Always remember - Haste Makes Waste. Do not try to copy this on your own. You could injure yourself and your partner. Such training should only be attempted if you a have a clean bill of health from your doctor and are supervised and trained by an instructor who is well versed with such training methods. 

Very often we are asked these questions by new comers to our class or just by people who wish to understand as to why or how is Jukaado different from traditional martial arts besides being a combination of a few martial arts. We have great respect for all traditional martial arts and in fact most of our training procedures are from these traditional martial arts itself. There is nothing that can be better than traditional or old school training. Before we go any further we would like to make it very clear that Jukaado, its instructors or the students in no way endorse or suggest getting in to any fight or violence. We are very peaceful people who just like to train in martial arts to challenge our bodies and improve our fitness levels. Please do not try any of our suggestions if you do not train the way we do.   At Jukaado our training revolves around Close Quarter Combat or CQC.   What is Close Quarter Combat ?  In a real life attack a fight...

The above video is about a training session using tyres to train with. Tyres are a wonderful unorthodox training equipment. There are so many varying workouts that can be planned with them. Here we have just shown  a few ways that one can train with tyres. Such workouts are very good to build functional strength, speed and endurance.  We train very hard but we train wisely and are well experienced in various training procedures. Please do not watch a video and try any training routine on your own. It could lead to severe injury. Always train under the supervision of an instructor who is qualified and experienced in any form of training. 

The above video is of one of the day training sessions from camp. At the Jukaado Camps we train for a minimum 4 sessions per day. Each session would be about 2 - 3 hours at a stretch. The day session is the 2nd session of a day full of strenuous training.

The above video is of a log cutting session of about 1 hour that we did after completing a 2 hour jog. This is how we train at Jukaado. Pushing the limits of physical and mental ability beyond the normal. We had started jogging at about 5:30am and had returned back by 7:30am. The jog was out in the wilderness with some part of it along the road, some of it along trails and a bit of hiking with sets of sit ups and burpees too. After a good jog of 2 hours to come back and start chopping logs of wood for 1 hour without drinking even a sip of water this is the way one should train. Such training will build your endurance and stamina to new phenomenal heights. It may seem harsh to those who do not train this way but once you start training at Jukaado you get used to such training routines and the body begins to enjoy such challenges. Chopping dried hard wood is not easy. It takes a lot of strength and hard work. To be able to do so after having your complete energy sapped by a good jog...

                                         The Taj Falaknuma Palace. Jukaado conducted a self defense training workshop for the women staff of Taj Falaknuma Palace Hotel. It was nice to see women ready to learn to defend themselves. They were eager to learn and some were over zealous but they were all having fun while they were learning and that is what matters.    Learning how to strike with the elbow.                                      Practicing and striking with their elbow.  They received training in the simplest ways of counter attack with using the least amount of force o...
