Has anyone heard of Seibukan Jujutsu, or its founder, Julio Toribio? I am considering joining a Seibukan Dojo in my area, however I can't seem to find much literature on this art, or its creator.

I am interested in martial arts for two reasons: The first, is to become proficient in hand to hand self defense techniques. The second reason is so that I could put "x" martial art down as a sport for a college application, particularly the Service Academies. Would Seibukan hold weight on a college portfolio? For these two purposes, would Krav Maga be a better match? I also have access to a Krav Center in my area.

i have never heard of seibukan, & being a fairly new art i would guess most people wouldn't have either. that doesn't mean it isn't good; i study a style of jujitsu founded in the '80s & i'm very happy with it. but nobody's heard of it.

i would guess that any art directly related to modern military applications would be your best bet. this would include krav maga, military sambo, combatives, etc.

Mr. Toribio is a real deal if you want to learn traditional Jujutsu. He earned his teaching licenses in Japan directly from the 2nd Grandmaster of the Hakko-ryu style. I can tell you this because one of my teachers was also a Hakko-ryu instructor & knows Mr. Toribio.

Mr. Toribio earned his teaching license in Hakko-ryu jujutsu at the Hombu dojo in Japan. I believe that his bujutsu is a mixture of Hakko-ryu Jujutsu and Ninpo-Taijutsu.

He was also uchi-deshi to Saito Sensei in Iwama at the Aiki shrine for a while. Take a look at some of his early demonstrations of Aikido on utube. His Aikido is a pleasure to behold.
