Where Do You Train? - Ultimate Jujitsu

spider Regular 235 posts	Tuesday 4th December 2007 at 21:15 I guess I'm kind of not training? Does boxing count? I could go to a TJJ across the street where I don't get to fight, or back to my judo half and hour away, where I've not been for a year nearly. Why does it seem so hard to go back? I'm not sure I'm ready for the commitment

Prof. Akers Spectator 15 posts	Saturday 8th December 2007 at 14:25 Anyone else in the wilds of the Lake District? Or even Cumbria? Thought not, I teach Mon, Wed, Fri nights - Bugeisha Jitsu, Thus Aft. Chi Gung and the rest of the time I fish, life's tough. I've got a really jiggly class at the moment, lots of teen age girls - very jiggly but strictly out of bounds, fun watching though. Here's a thing for all you instructors who can be bothered to get this far. The older you get, the more you become a father/grandfather figure and the more students want you to help sort out their problems - not fun! 10 years ago I was the problem, now I'm only good for confiding in but you takes what you're given I suppose. What I really want is a nubile 45 year old - do they exist?

Jeff Spectator 14 posts	Monday 7th April 2008 at 13:14 Dear all; I teach my own system of Ju-Jitsu (Master Sawyer's Ju-Jitsu)in Le Marche, Italy (I own and operate a residential martial arts and retreat centre here). I used to have clubs in England, but no longer. Me, my wife and kids moved here two and a half years ago, after I was medically retired from London's Metropolitan Police Service (attacked by a gang and badly injured). My system is very eclectic, containing elements of Boxing, Muay-Thai and Kali (systems I have substantially dross-trained in over the years - this is my 28th year in Ju-Jitsu). I'm also about to train and qualify as an instructor in Commando Krav Maga. At my centre here in Le Marche, I have a superb local instructor: Mr.Domenico Merrante - he was five times national Muay-Thai and Kick-Boxing champion and an excellent and successful amateur boxer. He teaches BJJ here for us, and runs courses in Muay-Thai and Boxing. So between the two of us we offer: Boxing, Thai, Master Sawyer's Goshin-Ryu Ju-Jitsu, BJJ, and Kick-Boxing. Also soon: Commando Krav Maga. I train with Mr. Merrante in Muay-Thai and will soon (fingers crossed and time permitting start BJJ with him).
