Rory Miller
Rory Miller has been studying martial arts since 1981. Though he started in competitive martial sports, earning college varsities in judo and fencing, he found his martial “home” in the early Tokugawa-era battlefield system of Sosuishi-ryu kumi uchi (jujutsu). He is a veteran corrections officer and with hundreds of unarmed encounters has thoroughly examined the gulf that exists between training and application.
In addition to jujutsu and self-defense, Sgt. Miller teaches and designs courses in Use of Force policy and decision making; Police Defensive Tactics; Confrontational Simulations; and leads and trains his agency’s Corrections Tactical Team. His articles have appeared in national magazines and he is featured in Loren Christensen’s Fighter’s Fact Book 2: The Street.
Rory Miller resides near Portland Oregon.
In the course of a week almost everything in my biography is wrong. I’m no longer a tactical team leader, no longer a sergeant working for a corrections agency in the northwest.
Just Rory Miller, citizen.
Citizen on his way to Iraq.
To teach what I have been doing for the last seventeen years in a new place, a new culture, with a new language barrier. I’ve been stuck for a couple of years wondering what the next steps were on my path. This looks like it.
This will be very cool.
