What is Cobra Kick-Jitsu?
The concept of a person holding a grade in MMA has been
discussed around the world with no real conclusion because, after all, MMA is
by definition a combination of various arts and does not normally include belt
gradings.
However many practitioners are now beginning to ask to be graded in some way.
The most acceptable way to grade in MMA is to be judged fight per fight
in competition, however some MMA clubs are not as competitive as others so how
can they be graded? The same applies to accomplished fighters with nothing to
show, grade wise, who then turn to teaching rather than fighting themselves and
as such require a syllabus to work from offering recognised grades.
The answer to this problem is Kick-Jitsu, which is a combination of the throws,
locks, groundwork from Ju-Jitsu and the kicks and strikes from Kickboxing.

Who Wrote the Syllabus?
Andrew Morrell, President of
the C.M.A.A. has put together a syllabus for
clubs to use. Andrew himself holds senior level Black Belts in both Kickboxing
(6th Dan) and Ju-Jitsu (4th Dan) and it is this background on which the Cobra
Kick-Jitsu syllabus has been based.
