My name is Szilvia Vikartoczky and my journey in martial arts began at an early age.
Growing up in a martial arts family, I learned that self-defense is more than just physical techniques—it’s about confidence, awareness, and mental resilience.
Our History
Our Instructor
Our History
I am a 2nd Dan Nihon Tai-Jitsu and Nihon Ju-Jitsu master, learnt from my father,
Gusztav Vikartoczky, a 7th dan Nihon Tai-Jitsu and Nihon Ju-Jitsu master.
Through Stronger Me, I am committed to sharing these skills, helping women build the strength and self-assurance to navigate the world more safely.
Our Philosophy
At Stronger Me, we provide self-defense training rooted in traditional Japanese martial arts, adapted for practical application in everyday life. Our approach goes beyond physical techniques—we emphasize awareness, confidence, and empowerment to equip women with the skills and mindset needed to navigate the world safely.
We believe that true strength is not only physical but also mental and emotional. Self-defense is not just about reacting to threats; it is about prevention, preparedness, and self-assurance. Our philosophy is built on four key principles:
Empowerment – Every woman deserves to feel strong, capable, and in control of her safety.
Awareness – The most effective self-defense begins with recognizing potential risks and avoiding danger.
Effectiveness – Our techniques are practical, efficient, and applicable to real-world situations.
Community – Training in a supportive and encouraging environment fosters confidence, resilience, and growth.
By mastering self-defense, women gain more than just physical skills—they develop a sense of freedom, security, and peace of mind, empowering them to move through life with confidence and strength.
What is Ju-Jitsu?
Ju Jitsu (also spelled Jujutsu, Jiu Jitsu, or Ju-Jitsu) is a traditional Japanese martial art that focuses on using an opponent's force against them. It includes a mix of striking, joint locks, throws, chokes, and grappling techniques.
Originally developed by the samurai for hand-to-hand combat when weapons were not an option, it has evolved into multiple styles, including Traditional Ju Jitsu, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ), and Judo.
Is Ju Jitsu Good for Self-Defense?
Yes, Ju Jitsu is highly effective for self-defense, but its effectiveness depends on the style and training approach:
Why Traditional Ju Jitsu is Good for Self-Defense:
Versatile Techniques – It includes strikes, throws, locks, and submissions, preparing you for different types of attacks.
Standing & Ground Fighting – Unlike Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, it teaches both standing combat and ground control.
Weapon Defense – Many traditional Ju Jitsu styles train against knife, stick, or firearm threats.
Adaptability – Techniques are designed to work against stronger or larger attackers by using leverage and efficiency.
Real-World Application – Focuses on quickly neutralizing threats and escaping, rather than prolonged fighting.
