ABOUT SETTING SUN DOJO

Setting Sun Dojo has been serving the Ocean Beach and Point Loma community since 1994. We believe in creating a new generation of balanced martial artists through the challenging, yet rewarding style of Go Jiu Bujitsu, which is composed of 3 traditional Japanese martial arts styles: Shotokan Karate, Judo, and Jiu Jitsu.

Our goal is to help our students build self confidence, self discipline, respect, and love while teaching valuable life lessons in our safe and welcoming environment.

GO JIU BUJITSU

"The way of Hard & Soft Martial Arts"

Go Jiu Bujitsu was founded in 2007 by grandmaster, Doshu Mark J. Colangelo. Shuseki Shihan Jherie Araos is now the head instructor of the style at Setting Sun Dojo.

Go Jiu Bujitsu is composed of 3 traditional Japanese martial arts: Shotokan Karate, Judo, and Jiu Jitsu. We believe that these traditional styles offer a unique martial arts experience for all who train and practice them. Go Jiu Bujitsu provides that experience to all students who wish to learn the history and art of traditional Japanese martial arts.
