BJJ is a great base to start from.

But what about Kimura over Gracie?  ;)

Why the preference for BJJ over judo?  Is there a greater latitude for permitted/practiced holds? 



Breakdancing!

I'm from the 80s.  Already kyu-dan.  :)

Take a look at what I'm wearing, people. You think anybody wants a roundhouse kick to the face while I'm wearing these bad boys?

...or aikido like that fat guy who's looking for his friend Ritchie?


Seriously, of the practitioners out there, how did you settle on your particular martial art?

wrestling is the best base.

If you have access to a good Sambo coach, utilize it, they are hard to find in North America.

Catch wrestling, Sambo> BJJ as far as submissions go

Doubly hard to find in Aus according to google.  :-\  Looks like a very practical MA which allows low injury randori.  I'd really like to find a club and see first hand what it's all about.

Have you actually practiced Ninjutsu?  Seems kinda far out with all the sword/spear/shuriken training, or don't they weight that much anymore?  I don't want to assassinate anyone, I just want my skills to be on par with my amazing physique.  ;D

Pfff.  All that body and facial hair makes him look too manly.  He's going to intimidate everyone!



Edit: Nice tape mark on the mirror waiting for the return of its Ivan Drago poster after the pic taking.  No comment req on the housekeeping.  :-X
