It is in suffolk county Long Island. A place for rent opened up near my house and my brother and I said "why not." It is about 15ft wide but goes 60ft back.

I just took whatever I had in the bank and used a credit card to get everything I needed to open the school (Mats, Paint, flooring, sign, etc.). I have about 15 students.

I also have the possibility of expansion. If I get the store next door I will break down the wall and put a ring and a bag area in the space. It's gonna be an awesome training facility if I get the other store.

Anyway, if anyone here would like to come down and train or just check it out, let me know. my website is www.vamosjiujitsu.com

Check out the videos on the website. My brother pulls off a flying triangle and a kneebar in the advanced division at the 2006 Grapplers Quest in NJ.

The pictures on the site are old. I was renting from a guy who owned a school. I am putting pictures of the new school up soon.

How much does a square foot on Long Island go for these days?

where are you located? I'll stop by. Congratulations.

The address is 1233 Grundy Ave, Holbrook NY 11741.

It's all on the website.

Rogue,

It all depends on where you are located. I'm not on a major road so my rent isnt too bad.
