How much do you pay a year for MA?

[Katriona1992]

Hi,
I used the search function prior to starting this thread and whilst there were threads questioning the amount one pays for muay thai and brazilian jiu jitsu there were few mentions of membership fees for other styles (the ones that did date back to 2005 or earlier).

So, without further ado, how much do YOU pay for your training per annum?

Me?
$105 Uni Sports Membership
$20 a month for Wrestling 2x a Week
$7 a month for Boxing 2x a Week
$35.2 a month for Transportation
$250 worth of boxing equipment (1x bag gloves, 1x sparring gloves, 1x helmet, 1x mouthguard, 1x jump rope, 1x 70lb heavy bag)
$70 worth of wrestling gear (1x singlet and 1x headgear)
$30 sports dufffel bag

= $1201. 4

Next year would probably (hopefully) be less costy as I don't need to buy the gear again (maybe I'll buy some shorts and shoes for boxing and shoes for wrestling but it should still cost less)...

HOW ABOUT YOU? :ExcitedTroll:

[CheeksWWAC]

$130 monthly Gracie Barra BJJ for 7 -9 classes a week depending if i go to Nogi.
$60 for Nogi shorts
$120 so far on the grappling dummy Im building
$50 a year for judo(military hookup)
$720 for transportation for the year

$2510 this year. But im planning on competing so tack on fee's for national in september and a light weight gi and were talking closer to 3000 this year.

[Necroyunus]

I don't
I teach classes
:problem:

but when i did it was around 3000-3500 yuan for 6 months...

Should be around 500 dollars

[Rzero]

I pay 35 euros a month so thats 420 a year.

There are 12 krav classes a month i can follow as well as any of the various fitness programs.

I usually take two classes a week.

Pretty cheap, no?

[Prince Vlad]

€65 per month for BJJ and Judo (as many times as I can manage - classes are twice per day six days a week)
€40 per month for Krav Maga (twice per week)

Tag on an average of €30 per seminar at an average 3 each for BJJ and Krav per year. Also, I'm currently going through a gi a year, so that's another €100 (I'm a big bastard so it costs me extra)

[Rene "Zendokan" Gysenbergs]

€350/year for BJJ (4x week)/Wrestling(2x week)/English Boxing(2x week)
€130/year for Judo (2x week)
€60 insurance/year + €6/lesson for Muay Thai (3x week)
€36 insurance/year + €5/lesson for La Boxe Française-Savate (2x week)

Normally I weekly go to:
- 2x BJJ
- 2x Judo
- 1x Freestyle/Submission Wrestling
- 1x English Boxing (for Kickboxing styles)
- 1x Muay Thai
- 1x La Boxe Française-Savate

Maybe 2100 for gear, training costs and fuel? I know many guys who will spend that again in supplements.

When you factor in missed overtime hours, days off for weigh ins it adds up.

It comes down to priorities. How much do you spend on alcohol each year? I don't drink.

[Mannetosen]

Let's see.

Unlimited classes, access to weight lifting room, great coaches.

Gear excluded I pay about $50 a month.

It's within walking distance of where I live.

I'd say my life is pretty swell.

I had to give up drinking to take t3h d34dly.

Anyway, Krav Maga classes are $150 a month for 3-4x a week + 3-4x conditioning sessions per week. The jits is around $100 a month for 2-3x a week. In my spare time, I get additional Parkour/Freerunning lessons from a gym in DC at $20 a pop for walk ons.

+3 gallons of gas per week for transportation specific to taking the deadly.

There's probably more money involved for things like gear.

[Kouch]

4200 for classes.
1200 each time i go out to L.A. for privates.
total= 5400
no gear required.
