Miyama Ryu Jujutsu

Miyama Ryu Jujitsu was created by Shinan Antonio Pereira with the knowing that the Western life style and philosophy differs from the Eastern, he adapted the physical techniques and mind set of the Samurai Warrior to the culture of the dangerous streets of the modern, urban South Bronx. In effect, he created one of the few combat methods suited for today's streets. He combined elements of Judo, Aikido, Koryu Jujutsu, Karate, Boxing, and the less organized, but no less effective element of Western street-style fighting.

Miyama Ryu Jujitsu Schaumburg is taught by Donald (Don) Koz who currently is an 8th degree black belt in Miyama Ryu Ju Jutsu with over 30 years of martial arts experience. He is also the Vice-Chairman of the International Miyama Ryu Combat Jujutsu Federation. Don has been teaching since 1987. He also currently teaches classes at the Miyama Ryu Midwest Dojo in Palitine, IL.

College of DuPage instructor teaching ju jutsu for 18 years, he has taught Women's self defense, corporate awareness programs, pepper spray programs and has lectured at numerous locations on the topics of self-defense.

He is an adjunct faculty member at Harper College, Palatine, Illinois and has taught courses in Corrections and Defensive Techniques in the Criminal Justice program.

He is a retired 30 year veteran special agent with the U.S. Treasury Department, Criminal Investigation Division and National Trainer in Defensive Tactics of over 400 federal agent instructors at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center, Brunswick, Georgia.

Don has a B.S. in accounting from Northern Illinois University. He has worked extensively in law enforcement as a financial crimes investigator for the Cook County States Attorneys Office. Also, he worked as a Special Agent for the U.S. Treasury Department. While working for Cook County he met and trained with the late Sensei John Lewis (who was an attorney assigned to that division), from 1976-1987.

Until his recent retirement, Don worked as an IRS Special Agent, and Use of Special Force Training Coordinator. Don was one of the original members of a task force that was established in the early 1990's to develop the Criminal Investigations (CI) Defensive Tactics (DT) Program. He had an integral role in making a final determination of the tactics and techniques which constituted the program. He also assisted in writing the "Use of Force Training - Defensive Tactics Manual", trained corps of Special Agents throughout the country as DT Instructors, coordinated the teaching of CI's DT program to all Special Agents throughout the United States.
