Joseki Judo and Ju-Jitsu started out as the Juniata College Judo Club, which became
an independent member dojo of the United States Judo Association in
1991. The name was changed to Joseki Judo and Ju-Jitsu in 2000 after the club was taken private by
Master Jan
Finkbeiner.
The dojo is currently part of
Allegheny Aikikai Aikido and Joseki Judo and Ju-Jitsu, Inc.,
formed by Jan
Finkbeiner and David
Hurtubise. AAA and JJJ, Inc. was created in 2004 as a
not-for-profit enterprise to promote Aikido, Judo, and Ju-Jitsu
in central Pennsylvania. Instructors at AAA and JJJ are
not paid a salary; they contribute their time and their
expertise because of their dedication to the martial arts and
their desire to pass on a tradition of high quality martial arts
practice.
