How to get started with a traditional Jujutsu style?

[michaelmew]

First time posting....

I have been training in Matsubayashi Ryu and now I would like to find more information on traditional Jujutsu (not BJJ) to compliment what I already have learned.

Where can I go to find more information and see if this will be right for me?

Does anyone know of a dojo offering classes in one of the traditional Jujutsu schools in the Dallas/Ft Worth area?

If I can't find a way to train in that style, can you suggest an alternative (Judo, Aikido, etc)?

BTW, my primary intention is to fill in gaps in my current style to be able to respond to any situation I may encounter. I really enjoy how Matsubayashi seems rooted in tradition (even though its young by comparison).

Thank you for the help,

I don't know any, personally--I know a guy in Texas who does Aikido and BJJ, but he's in Houston.

Here is a list I found of Japanese Jujutsu places in Texas:

While you're looking into that type of style, check into Aikijutsu or Aikijujutsu. They seen to be essentially the same. but can't settle on a name.
