I'm not a BJJ practitioner but am currently interested in it. However, I like to train in MAs with a practical SD syllabus. Seeing as BJJ is very much sports oriented, does this mean they have no SD syllabus?

I went in Thursday, got the tour, sat in for a class and such. Then Brandon "The Truth," Vera walked in. That was pretty sick since i'm admirent of him. Big fan. Anyway I'm just stretching, doing basic movements and such at home....

Hi all, I've just started BJJ and I'm loving it, although it's really tiring even though I'm fairly fit (3 nights kickboxing, 2 nights gym). I train at a Gracie Barra club in Derby and so far I have been submitted by everyone including a 15 year old girl (although it turns out she won gold medal in her category at the world championships!).
