Bushido is not bound to any traditional mixed martial arts style. Instead we train in the most effective techniques and modern combative training available today. We have a modern method of cross training in traditional mixed martial arts and modern combat, designed to test, identify, and integrate the most effective techniques, principles and training for truly effective self defense such as those used by pro fighters, law enforcement and military personnel. Bushido has an emphasis on Brazilian Jujitsu due to its proven effectiveness in realistic fighting situations and going on the fact that 85% of all fights end up on the ground. Since there are so many situations that ground fighting might not be the best choice of self-defense, we also cross train in Judo and standing striking arts such as Muay Thai and Kickboxing. Cross training has been proven superior to single style-based systems in realistic fighting situations

Bushido Provides a Complete Self-Defense Mixed Martial Arts Training System. An Open Mind, Cross Training Martial Arts Training has been proven to be superior to single-style based systems in realistic fighting situations. REALISM is an important aspect of Bushido Mixed Martial Arts Training, meaning that outdated or ineffective techniques are not taught. Only those techniques and training principles that have been proven effective in realistic situations are included in our Mixed Martial Arts program. There are many "traditional" methods of training that are outdated or have simply been proven wrong! Martial Arts and self-defense as well as everything else must evolve. However, many instructors continue to teach their students these obsolete techniques because of tradition.
