What about a style called Budo? I've never heard of it, but I found that style being taught near me as well.
Cool! Thanks for the advice!Jiu-jitsu like many what we're martial has become a sport so no longer practical for self defense.
If you want real self defence training find a Russian Systema, ROSS, STRELA or IZVOR school.
Thanks bgreed. I'll check out those sites!If you go to russianmartialart.com they have a section where you can put in your location to find an istructor or training partner near you.
Some of the top instructors are Vladimir Vasiliev, Martin Wheeler, Kwan Lee, Mikhail Ryabko, Kevin Secours all have videos on you tube you can check out.
Just be aware that in Systema there are no uniforms, belts or katas, no stances or scary faces to make. It looks simple but has gr eat depth. Andrey Karimov is another instructor you can check out he is another branch of Systema.
