    Dont be shy, come and have some fun, test your skills and meet some new people.

    2 groups pulled out at last minute[7 people total] so that just left my 3 plus 2 from columbus. The guys from columbus were down. just not worth the 2 hour drive for them to come up and get it on with us. Bummed out, i was pumped for it. so we will try again in a month or so and hopefully we will have some better commitment.I was actually surprised that there werent more MA's ready to go. Maybe i should pool some karate guys this next time also. Or i should offer some shinny trophies

    But thanks for asking. Maybe we need to come up to NY. there seems to be willing fighters up there.

    hey man I saw your thread and was interested but right now the team is preparing for a fight this saturday so we didn't want to do anything out of the ordinary and risk injury.

    but next month would be great! I could definately get at least 2 guys and possibly up to 5.

    Any problem with MMA guys coming?

    What's up bro.

    I would actually be very interested in hooking up with you. Havent had the chance to touch hands with any MMA guys. My only problem would be that we dont have any mats of any kind. Maybe we could come down and meet up with you. I am sure you would hand my ass to me on the ground game. but i actually like getting my ass kicked, it lets me know right where my weakness is. Any way let me know what you think and look forward to meeting you.

    While I'd like to spar with all aspects of the martial arts, I don't think the guys would have any problems with keeping the fight on our feet. Several of the team prefers standup anyways. (I'm a certified USABoxing coach)

    I know for sure that 2 of us would be down for it without a doubt.

    But I'd also love for you to make a trip down and practice on the mats so that you can see the full integration of striking, clinch and groundwork and how they compliment and oppose each other. I've put together several seminars now for my friends who are teachers in the traditional martial arts on fundamental groundwork and they have loved it! They are now integrating the program into their training a few times a month.

    Sundays are perfect for us. It's open gym day and people can come in and work on whatever aspect they want, suprvised, but not structured.

    Sounds good to me, I will talk to my guys and i will get in touch with you. 2 of us are always game and there are 2 more but they are mood dependent, if you know what i mean. Our school spars but no contact. I used to fight contact but karate made switch to Kung Fu for in close fighting so now trying to put the two together in a contact fighting. Look forward to meeting you guys...Kelley.
