CT School of Survival is the official website for a martial arts dojo and self-defense school located in New Haven, Connecticut, USA. It focuses on martial arts training, particularly jiu-jitsu and real-world self-defense, rather than emergency wilderness survival.
We proudly serve individuals and families in urban neighborhoods by providing accessible self-defense and martial arts training that promotes safety, confidence, and personal growth.
Our programs support suburban communities by offering structured, disciplined training in a welcoming environment for students of all ages and experience levels.
We are committed to supporting underprivileged communities by expanding access to quality self-defense education, mentorship, and life-building skills.
Our school provides inclusive training opportunities for individuals with special needs, emphasizing patience, respect, adaptability, and personal empowerment.
CT School of Survival stands on a rich foundation of martial arts history and practical self‑defense principles. Born from the combined legacy of Vee‑Jitsu, Sanuces Ryu, and Kumite Ryu, our gym has evolved into a teaching institution that honors tradition and adapts to modern realities.













Whether you’re new to martial arts or seeking to deepen your training, CT School of Survival welcomes you.
An IRS-approved, non-profit educational organization dedicated to self-defense training, youth development, and community empowerment.
