Diploma Courses

Street Jitsu Home Office Approved Diploma Courses

PLEASE NOTE: As these Diploma Courses are designed to produce INSTRUCTORS in the various self-defence sections, they are a combination of BOTH ‘Classroom’ instruction and the physical Instruction methods.
 In fact, a greater percentage of time is spent on theory, so please don’t come along expecting just a hard training session, it doesn’t work that way.

There are 6 main Diploma Courses
LEVEL ONE: (approx 4-6 hours duration)
This is the Basic Level General Self-Defence Instructors Diploma, and covers most aspects of general self-defence instruction, such as : The Law, The Pre-Emptive Strike, the Fence & Guard, How to spot and avoid potential violence, the basic physical methods used in self-defence.
A GREAT start in becoming a self-defence instructor.

LEVEL TWO: (approx 4-6 hours duration)
This is the Basic FEMALE (Ladies’) Self-Defence Instructors Diploma. This is for those wishing to TEACH self-defence to females, it is NOT just for female instructors, it’s for male and female alike.
There are some similarities to parts of the LEVEL ONE, this is natural, however a great deal of the actual contents are on the aspects specific to females.

LEVEL THREE: (approx 3-4 hours duration)
This takes the self-defence aspects from the usual ‘one-to-one’ confrontations and into two other realms. Firstly, Adverse Situations ..This means any situation other than standing facing your attacker … Seated, in a Car, on stairs and many more.
Secondly … Multiple Attackers … This deals with the best avoidance and combat methods used when facing more than one attacker.
LEVEL FOUR: (approx 3-4 hours duration)
This one is the Advanced Ladies Self-Defence Instructors Diploma, and covers the more serious attacks. LEVEL TWO although containing some actual self-defence techniques was more concerned with the Awareness & Avaoidance Principles, trying to PREVENT the use of Physical Methods.
This LEVEL FOUR firstly assumes that the methods of avoidance have been unsuccessful, and thus physical means are necessary. Secondly this Diploma covers the more serious attacks such as: 
Domestic Violence, Muggings, Sexual Assault and Rape.
LEVEL FIVE: (approx 3-4 hours duration)
This Diploma covers attacks with the more common street weapons, categorised in sections such as:
Edged Weapons … Single & Double handed impact weapons (Baseball bats, hammers etc), and others, such as chains, large items like chairs etc.
LEVEL SIX: (approx 3-4 hours duration)
This Diploma covers the uniques aspect of self-defence and self-protection for Children & Young Adults.
It is in TWO Modules covered on the same course, but segregated into roughly: 
Infant & Junior School ages 6-11 & Secondary School ages 11-16
On completion of these SIX, the Instructors can then apply to take the:
MASTER’S LEVEL SELF-DEFENCE INSTRUCTOR. (approx 1-2 hours duration)
Once successfully completing their Masters, this also allows them to be awarded their ASSESSOR’s Level. This Assessor’s level authorises them to run any or all of the SIX Instructors Diploma Courses and award new instructorships in their own right. On attendance to our unique classes you will automatically be enrolled onto the SDF register were Dave Turton 8th Dan, highest ranking Self Defence practitioner in the country, gives his seal of approval, this being highly accredited within the martial arts world.
