Just wondering if any of the folks reading this blog have experienced training in “Small Circle Jujitsu” as developed by Wally Jay? I have decided I need to supplement my training and practice with something that will provide locks and throws that will allow me to apply same in a SD situation.
Any comments, feelings, etc. toward this martial system? The following are the instructors at the local training hall.

Also, I am considering Judo, what are your thoughts and feelings on both? Either one as a preferred primary? I am looking to expand my base from the striking art of karate.
I've been training in BJJ for about 7 months now. It's been a real eye opener as it is so very different from anything I've done before.
ReplyDeleteA word of caution about judo/jujitsu: if you're not used to taking breakfalls, it causes a lot of wear and tear on the body. Take it slow!
