What Is Shuai-jiao?

Shuai-Jiao is not like any other Chinese Martial Art you have ever experienced. It has thousands of years of history but yet has a very modern and practical outlook with a strong enthusiasm on practical grappling skills.

Literally translating to "grab and throw" Shuai Jiao is a form of wrestling from China recognised as the oldest martial art in China, with more than 5000 years of history.

While being a practical stand up grappling art comparable to some modern throwing arts like Judo and Sambo. Shuai Jiao is a traditional Chinese martial art that uses ancient Chinese techniques of gripping and throwing, with sweeps and throws being the primary methods taught.

While Shuai-Jiao has its own distinct training wear, a short sleeved Jacket called a Jiao Yi (wrestling Cloth) made from heavy cloth similar to a Judo Gi. It has a mix of both Jacket & No Jacket Throws(Gi/No Gi)

Shuai Jiao London is an independent martial arts school that was formed by Michael Nelson-Cole in 2010. Our goal is to raise the awareness of Shuai Jiao in the UK and the rest of the world.

We try to bring all martial arts schools together and we have been able to spread Shuai Jiao to schools in London, Preston, Bristol and Slough.
