I noticed the other day that there's a Ketto Ryu club on campus and was wondering if anyone had information it that style of Jujutsu. I'm going to check it out tomorrow, but was curious anyway.

Well, I checked it out today and was pretty impressed. The class was very relaxed (enjoying themselves, but not messing around too much) and the instructor was easy to get along with. It was difficult to distinguish rank seeing as the levels were all mixed together, there weren't many students there and noone was wearing a blet. Good sign.

He had them break into groups of two or three and work out a combination that involved a few strikes, a takedown and some ground work. It was interesting to see what the groups came up with based on their rank in the club and other experience (two white belts came up with the best one). There was some breakfall practice, a short break, then the moved into their belt ranks to work on rank-specific techniques. This included strikes, grabs, locks, takedowns and weapons defence. Everything was quick, practical and pretty deadly.

To end things off they did a game called "Circle of Death" in which one student was in the middle and everyone attacked one at a time. In the case of the higher belts once one person began their attack, the next could jump in. Weapons could be used if they wanted or whatever they felt would be the best. Everything from traditonal karate techniques to using a knife or pipe to two knives/a knife and a pipe/two pipes were used. The sensei even got into things to make it more challanging.

Overall I got a very good impression from the club, they're making sure everyone keeps up, are learning something pretty nasty and enjoy themselves. I think I'll join in next class.
