Small Circle Jujitsu or Judo

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. 

Head Instructor: Professor Lee Eichelberger
                          Judan - Tenth Degree Black Belt               Kodenkan (Danzan Ryu) Jujitsu
                          Judan - Tenth Degree Black Belt              Small Circle Jujitsu
Asst Instructors: Professor Janice Okamoto
                           Hachidan– Eighth Degree Black Belt        Kodenkan (Danzan Ryu) Jujitsu
                           Shichidan– Seventh Degree Black Belt     Small Circle Jujitsu
                           Sensei Dennis Dias
                           Yodan– Fourth Degree Black Belt             Kodenkan (Danzan Ryu) Jujitsu


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.

  1. 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.

    A 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!
