Salem Muay Thai - Krav Maga Salem - Salem, Oregon Im thinking of signing up at this gym but I'm not sure if it's legit, can someone look at the gym through the link I provided and tell me if it's legit? Im a beginner and I've taken some bjj classes but I don't know nothing about striking and...

That’s actually very sound advice. I never even thought of that aspect.

Thanks, my dude! :)

Ok, that’s honestly good to hear :) he doesn’t charge a whole lot and he does no contracts so I think I’m gonna sign up

Basically, this bjj place opened pretty much right down the street from my house and I’m really thinking of joining because I want to do bjj for exercise and self defense. Can a expert in bjj tell me if this gym is legit? I’ll leave a link Combat Sports Center | MMA Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Muay Thai

That's what I was thinking cause I wanted to train 4-5 times a week and sambo is only two days a week so I figured any of those would help for street and competition situations. I think I'll do the kickboxing twice a week sub wrestling once a week and sambo twice a week

Alright, I thought it would help me progress even better. I guess the way I thought of it as like when you Powerlift you focus on the big 3 but you do assecory work to help those lifts, thought it be much the same.

Okay, thank you very much Kirk!

After a long time I finally decided to start learning sambo at team quest in Portland, Oregon. I was wondering what would compliment sambo more for street situations sub wrestling or Muay Thai or boxing? Anything helps

Do you think his teaching could take some one far? I know it depends on the person of course but I'm athletic and physically strong so I think I have potential given the right instructor.

The lady told me a guy named Dave Hagen is the one who mainly teaches the submission wrestling

Yeah...that would be nice to go to Thailand and train but my pockets ain't that deep.

Okay, I'll call them today and get back to you on to see who teaches the submission wrestling. What's the difference between fighting and self defense? Basically, my goal is to be a well rounded fighter I want to learn stand up for self defense I would also like to learn grappling in case a...

You'd have to check their other gym it's silverton self defense they have two gyms and ones in silverton, like 15 minutes away, that's where the submission wrestling is I thought it was listed on their one site but I guess they have two. So as far as learning good technique to where if I had to...

Ok, thank you to everyone that replied I appreciate it!

Hello, I live in Portland, Oregon but I work in Salem. Anyways, I was wondering if someone can help me because Iam new to the martial arts game lol and I don't want a mcdojo gym. The gyms name is Keizer martial arts and they teach a variety of stuff but I was wondering if there Muay Thai and...

Ok, thanks bro!

Maybe I was just jumping the gun. But isn't bjj routed in buddhism? I thought monks helped develop a lot of bjj? Could be wrong.

My bad maybe it was just me. I'll give all the advice consideration and just see what's best for me.

I left some links to one place.

Those are some good points. But the thing about regular bjj classes is it seems like a lot of them have a religious like aspect and I don't like that I like the non traditional stuff I guess that's why I'm drawn to these two arts.
