My brother still does it though. Just won his first fight in Fredericksburg at the BattleFC event. He trains/teaches in Southern Maryland for SOMD Martial Arts. He'll be fighting again on May 9. Not sure what is near Bethesda though.

I did it for a few years then stopped and never went back. Thinking about starting some BJJ classes soon.

i was gonna get into it but never really took the plung, up in bmore there is a few places like ground control but ive heard its pretty awful(training wise) and the hours are real inconvient like 4pm and noon.

I train traditional karate, that means, anything open handed from judo, jujitsu, to kicks and punches, main goal is nothing more then self defense.
I got out of it for awhile, now that I'm moved into my new to me house and pretty much setup, I'd like to find a few people to train/work with. My price is zero.
Only down side is I have very little room and no mats.

I have done some BJJ and my buddy just told me a place opened up near my house so I might get back into it when I return to the states.
I really enjoy doing submissions and ground work. I dont really like the striking and standing up parts of fighting. (probally because its my weakness)
But I am looking forward to getting back into it.

I train BJJ. Teach Modern Army Combatives. Theres a group that rolls in the area. Mostly about bunch a beginners that like to brag about being able to do ground and pound, blah blah blah. . . . .
Trained in American Kickboxing, Muay Thai, Judo, Tai Chi, and Shutokun Karate.
Ranked in Georgia through Alliance Jujitsu. They hold annual matches.
P.S. Who gives a crap if the topic has been discussed already. MID-A posts as of late have been lacking so at least your posting something interesting man.. Eff em if they don't like it.

Ya gotta stand up to take em down.. Judo is great for take downs. The thing to remember is that nobody starts a fight from a dominate body position.

Yea i know thats why I really want to get back into it and learn allot more then I have. I just havnt had the time/opportunity to do it yet. I enjoy doing it though, so with proper training I think I will like being on my feet allot more once I get comfortable.

I am sure there are a few other places but haven't done much research..
I know there is a Pentagon BJJ group but I know a few of the guys that roll and I consider them lame so definitly not rolling with them. More like just wrestling which is pointless...

i've trained at yamasaki in rockville before, and switched over to mike moses' evolve academy in germantown. yamasaki's got decent instruction and facilities (way better for its bjj than mt), but i'm not a fan of the ownership... MM's on the other hand is great, just a little pricey (at least from what i thought). mike is a great guy and has top notch instructors, many diff programs/timeslots available, etc.
