What's happenin', people? As the heading suggests, I'm new to the game. I wrestled in high school and learned a little about jiu-jitsu with a friend who studied it, but really, I understand that I know nothing.

So now I'm looking for a good school and I'm wondering what section of this forum I should go to for information on particular teachers, schools, etc. The one I'm looking at where I'm from, here in St. Louis, is led by a reputable guy, Rodrigo Vaghi, of the Rickson Gracie school. Where might I be able to find feedback on this kind of thing?

Thanks.

Welcome to Martial Talk, Jagermeister. I think that you'll very likely enjoy your training at the BJJ place if you've found JJ interesting thus far. You'll likely spend a lot of time sparring, and may even find opportunities for competition, if that's what you're into. It will very likely be beneficial for your conditioning and physical health. Like everything else, you'll get out of it what you put into it.

Enjoy your training, and your stay on Martial Talk!

Thank you for the welcome, the martial arts have intrigued me for years.Recently my 11 yr old son has become involved in Philipino martial arts and in searching for info I have become very interested in Pekiti Tirsia.I have not been a part of an online discusion group before so this is all new to me but I like the idea of hearing from people that have the same interests,I have not found many people into the martial arts that have an interest deeper than the media.
