I heard on NASL from gretorp that he studies BJJ? (maybe he'll stumble upon this thread and tell me) but, I heard he sparred EGmachine? if so Im guess Machine does it too. I think I also Heard that Mr.Bitters also does BJJ.
Anyway this gave me the idea to ask TL: who else does martial arts here? Who competes in it?
I personally have been competing in BJJ for the last 4 years. I also had the "interesting" experience to bounce at a local bar when I was going to Maryland UMD, where I got to use most of it in real life situations.

I've been doing muay thai for about 3 years and bjj for about the same length.
|
I used to train BJJ a few years back, hurt my ankle and the gym quickly was overrun with a bunch of high school kids who only cared about being hardasses, wasn't fun anymore ![](/mirror/smilies/frown.gif)
I do know that QXC also does BJJ, and I think Moonglade once said he boxes regularly, but I don't know about other pros.
|
I heard QXC had his own BJJ club in Harvey Mudd before he went to Spain.
|
Wow, Im happy to see that many people are doing BJJ as well as other arts.
That is really cool if QXC has a club!
panN, does that mean you are a blue belt yet?

Umm Ive always been interested in martial arts but cant really do it because of time and money. I wrestled in high school and did bjj in my first year of college (recreational). Really wish i could do more but most decent gyms are pretty expensive

I've had four different teachers total, unfortunately I don't. I'm absolutely positive I'm at that level as I get to roll with them often, but oh well, hopefully soon.

I live in Brazil and never heard anyone referring it as Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. lol Always thought it was just called Jiu Jitsu. I even googled BJJ to make sure. :p

I trained Kung Fu for 3 years and last month I started training BJJ with coach Fabio Gurgel, here in Sao Paulo. It is going pretty well, but I wish my job gave me more time to practice.
|
no gi bjj.
I haven't been actively training recently however, I'm looking forward to getting back into it shortly.

I don't do martial arts anymore but I did 4 years of tae kwon do, 2 years of kung fu, and a measly 6 months of krav maga.

ONERumcake is an actual MMA fighter. He does it all!
|
I did some martial arts when I was very young I'd like to get back into it but I'm always skeptical when I see random places set up in random sheet metal buildings. Anyone have any advice on finding good places to learn? I am interested in Muay Thai.

Yes, first find out the type of martial arts you want to do and for what reason(s)
Then find a MMA, or that martial art forum online. Then ask them. Usually they will direct you to a good one, and because you know some of the members already online from the forum, you will be welcomed warmly.
