Yea a lot of people say you shouldnt go to the ground in a street fight, but knowing BJJ or any form of grappling would be good at least for defense. If you dont got friends around and someone else is tryin to submit you, it would be good to know how to prevent it

i would say that 2 years its an average time to get a blue belt if you are a normal guy, if you have talent for bjj you can make it in 1 year. Personally i think that the belts are very hard to get, it takes years to get purple and brown, and i think that the transition from brown to black its the hardest.
Here im a white belt, two stripes and i just want to get better and better, this art its incredible, and i think im never gonna stop trayning, maybe taking some breaks but always getting back.

16 years old its a good time, i started at 21-22, dont remember well. i have seen videos or little kids training the bassics and its amazing, ill do that with my kids, its like a game for them but they are actually learning the basic knowledge of bjj
i would define my style between a mix of ByuN, Maru and MKP

Been training BJJ/MMA for little over 6years now, the last 2 with Team Quest. At first I started out real competitive doing tons of tournaments and small weekend fights but now days it's more just something to keep in shape and get out extra energy.

For how long and how do you like it? I'm thinking of trying out Wing Chun sometime soon.

Grappling is good in a competitive environment, but on the street you better be DAMN sure they can't throw any unexpected punches at you, especially at unexpect weak spots.

I'm personally more fond of energy deflection and being where your opponent does not expect you to be, but that's due to my aikido background.

Even if they did, they would be unable to discuss their training due to the ninja code of silence. They are killing machines.

I did BJJ for about 6 months before starting muay thai for about a year...then transitioned again to Krav Maga. If you haven't checked Krava Maga out, I would highly recommend it. Oh I have been doing Krav for about 2 years. It is a great workout, focuses on techniques you can actually use on the street, and in level 1 they assume you are fighting at least 3 people at once...yeah...

+1 to this. I just reached level 3 in Krav Maga, and have never been more confident in myself as a "Warrior". Theoretically, I could take on multiple people, all with knives, and in practice, have mastered several techniques and MINDSET (a huge part of Krav Maga) to do so.

Krav Maga seems very efficient from what i've seen and i can see some similarities between Krav Maga and WingChun. It's important to know some "anti-weapon techniques", but always keep in mind that if your opponent has only the slightest clue about what he is doing, with a knife for instance, w/o a weapon you are pretty much screwed up, no matter how long you trained any art/style. Be confident, but also know your limits when it's getting serious

Anyone here practicing Systema?

I'm going to Connection Rio, and I'm going to train at Gordo jiu-jitsu. It seemed to be the most convinient one as I've never been in Brazil before and don't have any contacts there
