I teach a gym and would be willing to host a T-down Hillsboro Oregon suburb of Portland. Anyone interested. I'm also looking to challenge my students with some outside talent in a friendly environment of couse. feel free to personal message me.

I'm gonna be in Portland for school. I'd be more than willing to get together anytime after the 29th of August.

Damn I would love to but I have these pins in my shoulder that say I got to wait to January to start training again.

Looks like a Sept. time frame, a Sunday would be best, you guys are always welcome to come anytime M-F 9-10:30, 5-8. My guys are pumped about it too. I have at least 5 that want to roll so far. Can you feel the tension rise!?

I might be able to drag a friend or two along.

Think it'd be possible for you to provide some transportation from the University of Portland? Bus tends to suck muchly.

Also, I should specify that I don't have terribly much experience. I'm ready and willing, but I can't promise I'll be a great challenge.

Are you looking for some standup, grappling, nhb, or whatever ya got?

Transportation may not be a problem. Experience is not an issue here as we are all pretty good natured and humble. Of course your buds are welcome to join just no Billy Bad Asses with something to prove, thats the only rule. Looking to do whatever the mood calls for. We cross train in many different styles from Muay Thai, JJ, Kempo, Kung Fu, down to prison tactics. Looking to learn as much from you as you from us.

WTF... prison tactics?

Anyways, I'll have to look into my schedules and such... but I might be able to make it down.

Prison tactics? Like how to make a shive out of a toothbrush tactics?

You know just whatever works at that time, not to focus on in the ring or in the schoolyard but touches of reality, eye pokes, satchel grab n twists, dirty fighting as well. From the highly stylized to the basic beat down.
