Information about Jitsu Canada clubs:Jitsu Alberta
Welcome to Jitsu Alberta. We offer instruction in the art of Shorinji Kan Jiu Jitsu. The University of Calgary Jiu Jitsu Club opened in January 2005 and is open to all members of the Calgary community aged 16 years and over.
The club is a registered member of Jitsu Canada, the governing body for Shorinji Kan Jiu Jitsu in Canada, and is affiliated with The Jitsu Foundation and the Alberta Jiu-Jitsu Association.
Our style of Jiu Jitsu is fun to learn and can be used by anyone irrespective of strength, weight or gender. Training is gradual and tailored to individual ability. New members are always welcome to any class, at any time of the year! Please feel to drop by to watch, or try a free introductory class.

Welcome to Jitsu BC. We offer instruction in the art of Shorinji Kan Jiu Jitsu. The BC Institute of Technology Jiu Jitsu Club opened in February 2008 and is open to all members of the community aged 16 years and over.

Jitsu Kingston
Welcome to Jitsu Kingston. We offer instruction in the art of Shorinji Kan Jiu Jitsu. There are currently three clubs in the Kingston area: one at Queen's University, one at the YMCA and one at St. Lawrence College.
Based on locking and throwing techniques which have evolved over thousands of years, Shorinji Kan Jiu Jitsu provides an extremely effective self-defence system against virtually any attacker, unarmed or otherwise. This system, taught in a friendly club atmosphere, can be used by anyone irrespective of strength, weight or gender. Training is gradual and tailored to your individual ability, so you do not need a high standard of physical fitness to begin. In fact, you will find that endurance, strength, flexibility and speed are all improved during training. And your confidence, coordination and reaction times will also improve.
Why not give it a try? All you need to start is loose clothing. New members are always welcome to any class, at any time of the year! Please feel to drop by at any time to watch, or try a free introductory class.

He then moved to London under the tutilage of Sensei Steve Donaghy at University College London. In 1995, Alex founded University of London Union Jitsu Club. Supported by some great instructors (also Sensei Tony Finding Dude, Sensei Ian Lambert TAUMC, Sensei Nigel Price), Alex received his shodan in 1997. The club grew, winning the 1997 National Atemi Championships and 1997 University of London Outstanding Contribution to University of London Sports. In 1998 Alex handed it on to a new brown belt, Sensei Andre Petra, then went AWOL.
Having un-AWOL'ed in Canada, Alex started Jitsu Toronto in April 2004 under the invitation of Sensei Andy Dobie. In December 2006, Sensei Andy Dobie locked Alex in a dark room and made him do his nidan. In that same session Sensei Mark Yourkevich received shodan, and in the same year Sensei Chris Thumper Brooks got his jacket, and Sensei Andy Dobie received Yondan. Brilliant!
To this day, Alex still reckons ULU Jitsuka can kick UCL's Jitsuka's asses. Especially that OSotoGarvey fella.
