Is Miyama Ryu Jujitsu effective?

Question

I read about this style created by Antonio Pereira in the South Bronx. It combines Judo, Aikido, and Jujitsu. With that said, does anybody know the effectiveness of this system?

Answer 1

from what ive seen it looks effective as long as they spar hard and realistically any art is effective

Answer 2

I knew Professor Pereira and most of my Jujutsu friends are from his school.

If the instructor is one of his original black belts, you will get some great training. Those guys trained hard core.

Ask the person what is his certificate number and how long he trained with Pereira Sensei.

Alot of the later generation people are not worth it.

People like Sensei Marquez, who to me was the best, Sensei Negron, who lived in and practically built the Hombu Dojo, Bombace Sensei, Pablo Martinez, these are all the guys I saw and they are all awesome practitioners.

I have the priviledge of knowing Miguel Ibarra, however, he is not associated with the house anymore. He is an awesome practitioner. He has his own organization.

It depends if you can find these people and where you are located. Alot of them have scattered throughout the country.

I heard great things about D'Arcy Rahming, but never seen him. I won't doubt he is good.

It is a good system if you learn from one of the seniors. Extremely effective.

Professor Pereira trained many NYPD and Dept of Corrections Officers.

Lenny Homes is or was an instructor in Rikers Island Correctional Facility... one of the most dangerous places to work in. He was one of the Professors students.
