Does anyone train in Jiu Jutsu?

Lol Nah Tam I just want to apply the strength I have. Plus it'll be fun I'm sure.

No doubt. No one will mess with you now, that's for sure.

The Muay Thai training has been useful to me. My Starbucks record is 2-0. Although I'm a calm person, it's sad that a lot of meat heads out there aren't. Both cases were in self defense in which I knocked out the opponent.

And yes sparring is very fun..both mentally and physically. I find myself often shadow box whenever I approach a pole..people probably think I'm nuts.

Harry, here's a YouTube vid of the gym. A student made it a while back. This is what goes on in there, more or less.

That's Legends MMA on La Brea, just a few blocks from me. From what I've heard from others who've been there, it's like $2000/month to train at that gym

in5ane_3 · 07-19-2009, 01:39 PM

I went to the Fight Forum on Montrose and was impressed. I had fun. I got my ass handed to me, I won't lie because I had no idea what to do. The trainers especially were cool and willing to teach at any level. The more advanced students there would each as well. When I was grappling with someone he had me in like 3 different choke holds and I had to ask how to get out of them and he showed me. The class I took was a no Gi class but the rest of the classes they offer need Gis.

It's about a hundred bucks a month and it's closer to my office than anything else so it is really convenient. They have MMA classes too which are offered in the price.

Congrats Harry. Sounds like you enjoyed it a lot last nite....I believe Tito Ortiz has a place out here in the H.B. that teaches his method. I was never really into those kind of stuff.
