Just introducing my self I have done a few martial arts here and there but have been immersing myself in mma for the last 4 years or so. I am lucky to have found a really professional fight gym and am taking advantage of that as much as I can.

Yeah I am like that too. I did a lot of freestyle karate as a kid. But it was nowhere near as developed. Even things like the gloves just open up all of these opportunities I never had.

Yeah we sort of invented it a bit as we went along. Had to fly Guys down to teach. But it worked out pretty good. Coach is maybe looking at a title shot.

We have a lot of interest in mma in the area so there is a bit of collaboration.

We are even doing those 12 week courses that put you in the ring at the end.

No I am still basically a hobbyest I started this at thirty five an work crappy hours so I am never going to be the next mma super star. I have done 1 c class which I lost. But I will need to get another one in somehow.
