I used to train Ninjutsu with this guy back in the day (10 years ago). I was wondering if anyone else on this website has ever trained with him or even know where he is. He was never successful at running a club, and he does not have a website up or anything like that. Anyway if anyone on this site has any info on him I would really appreciate it

You've been a member for nearly two years and you still want to train the booj? -
No.... Not at all. I just always wondered what happened to him. He was a very nice guy, but a total douche when it came to running a club. To the point that he would piss off his students. Because of this I got upset and left, but that was 10 years ago and I don't harbor any negative feelings anymore. I just always wondered what ever happened to him. If he was ok or not? etc etcOriginally posted by Lindz View Post
Considering how many members we have, I just thought maybe one guy trained with himComment

I trained with jayson Creasy as well
I used to train with him in the place in the alley behind the Macs at the corner of 7th and 8th. This was from 1993 to 1997. I remember it was Craig, Al, Jason DeJong, or Adam LaPorte who would usually teach us. I ran into jayson at Chinook Center in 2005 and again at a chiropractor office in April 2006. He was on his way to Korea (if I remember correctly) a short time after that.Comment

Oh wow, we just missed each other then. I started training with him in 1997-2000. In 2000-2001 I got fed up and quit with him. I wonder if we ever trained together.
Anyway I ran into another friend Andre Gonzales who trained with him. He basically says he still doing well and looks and moves the same. He's s 13th dan now after a recent trip to Japan (all the way from fourth I know). He has a small dojo where he teaches out of I think in the north central part of the city.
Let me know if you want more information

No shock that Jay would jump that high. Great news. I was speaking with a few of Jayson's former students recently and they laughed quite hard when reminded of how they would teach instead of jay.
I remember Andre the knife freak, is he still into that stuff? My name is Dave, what's yours (only if your comfortible with telling me of course)?Comment

Sorry, it has been a while since I have been on this sight. If you have more information on where Jay is instructing that would be cool. Also if there is anything that can be done about the noob thing that seems to have followed my posts, I would not object to that either.Comment

Do you still want to train with Jay? I can try and find his Dojo. All I know is that it is in the North Central part of Calgary. I'll try and get it for you. In the mean time which former students of his did you run into that would always teach in his absence?Comment

I talk with Craig a lot, but he left before you began. I have run into Al a few times, but I do not have any contact info for him so I only talk with him when I see him. Everyone else who would teach when Jay was not there (and sometimes when he was there) I have not seen or heard from since I left training there. I am trying to get a hold of Jay but I have no contact info for him, I may try Orlando Mancina's place, but if you know where his dojo is, please let me know.Comment

Funny I don't know who Craig is. I remember Al. If we are talking about the same guy then he is tall and lanky. He was talented. I think he has moved on from BBT into something else. But that was when I was training there about 10-11 years ago. He could be back into BBT I'm not sure.Originally posted by brodawudx View Post
I remember Orlando Briefly. He came to one of our testing that Jay was holding. I remember that he was involved with bringing some BJJ guys in. 11 years ago he had some GJJ guy who was very much into the whole Gracie Jiu Jitsu for street self defence. We went out for sushi once and this guy came out. I still remember him to this day....
"on the street the safest place to be is on your back with the guy between your legs..."
Before I started bjj I still remember thinking that it would be better to have the top position. LOL
Anyway I texted Andre the Crazy knife tool cause he still drops in at Jay's Dojo. So I'll get the info from him and send it your wayComment

Much appreciated, thank you.Comment

So Typical Andre is being a tool as always. He doesn't have an address for the club "He just knows how to drive there" Whatever the hell that means. I asked for the number but he didn't get back to me and I don't think I want to waste my time asking again.Originally posted by brodawudx View Post
Anyway I did some leg work for you and I found 3 numbers
I typed in Jay Creasey Calgary in the white pages and I got this number
J Creasey
Calgary, AB
(403) 686-1012
If it is not him then it will be one of his nephews who should be able to direct you.
Also I found the number of one of his top former students named Rod Coulter. He runs a gym called spirit fitness his number is(403) 835-0895
Lastly I typed in Yamabushi + Calgary in google and I found an add on some aikido webisite about a seminar he did in 2010
the contact person for that was Colin Mahatoo and Tomomi Inoue at 403.835.1371
Let me know how it goes!Comment
