Birds Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I didn't know there were specific "MMA" training places, thought most people just take up BJJ or something and compete in MMA tournaments. That said, there's plenty of places that I guess you'd call MMA purely because they have instructors for each kind of major martial arts. Eastern suburbs? There's one in ringwood and chadstone that I know of Yeah east. Where in Ringwood is it? Closest I found in terms of legitimate looking places was Caulfield. My concern choosing proximity over reputation is that it is slowly becoming a "buzz" martial art like BJJ...BJJ is the new karate and they are springing up all over the place thanks to UFC. The teachings become watered down because people are more interested in cashing in on the latest craze rather than teaching it. Hahah I wouldn't hurt a fly Just a few easy rights to the fly's mouth Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/379859-vic-wasteland-thread/page/371/#findComment-6151600 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little concerned about the commercialised look of it...as I said before about the whole business vs teaching side of things, but something is going to be better than nothing.
