San Francisco visiting

**submessenger** · Posted On: 2/28/2013 1:54pm

I'll be in SF April 7-10, looking for a bully-friendly place to drop in and train a bit. My schedule is a little screwy, so I understand this may not happen. My ideal would be to get a morning session on 9th or 10th.

Google-fu tells me that Ralph Gracie SF might be a good option, because proximity to my hotel (Mariott Marquis) + generous schedule. I haven't called them, yet. 10th Planet also more-or-less walking distance. Short of those, anyone got any great ideas?

Rice a roni!

Go visit Serge Gerlach.

There's quite a few kung fu characters in San Francisco, but BJJ is your thing you may want to stick to that.

It's a bit of a hike, but I'm going to make this a plan. I assume I can drop your name?

Maybe I'll come up and visit but just mention bullshido. He used to be an active member.

I have just come back from San Francisco and if you are looking for something a bit different, can recommend the San Francisco Judo Institute in Sunset (http://www.sfji.org).

The Marriott Marquis is also just one mile from Romulo Melo BJJ, on 1313 Mason Street (although it's on the other side of a huge hill). You can take the Powell-Mason cable car to get there, or the 30-Stockton bus line.

(Or you can just run over a huge hill to warm up.)
