Recently went to a No Gi Grappling school with a focus on take downs and self defense.
Got to admit it,I really enjoyed it.
Psyical training was good,with a lot of wrestleing based conditioning excersices that got the blood flowing.
But what I really enjoyed was getting tossed around (and doing abit of it myself) by heavier people and truly experimenting with what works and what doesn’t.
I am finding it harder and harder to find IMA schools that train at this sort of intensity.I am leaning more and more to MMA just for the fun training atmosphere and lack of pretensiousness.
Anyway,just thought I would post this.
First time in a long while that I have been interested in any MA with a Comp circuit attached to it.
Hello welcome to the main forum from Kung Fu Magazine, where we talk about chinese martial arts, unlike the Other Arts forum where people talk about wrestling, jiujitsu, etc.
Lay off it Xebs. It’s tiresome. You aren’t helping any. Guy is an Internal practicioner, which you’d have realized if you’d bothered to read his profile, who talked about his grappling experience at a no-gi school. BJJ school threads asking where to train don’t belong here, of course.
Deal with it. Of course, I’m probably one of the first people you’d kick off, so why listen to me?
