I was worried with traffic there would be a lot of times I didn't make it. The place I'm looking into in Toledo (toledo jujitsu) is ran by the same head instructor as detroit jujitsu; Chris Blanke. Is he good?

Chris Blanke is a very good instructor. I think he was one of Saulo's first American Black belts.

Blanke is my instructor.

He is a fucking bad ass.

Go train there.

also, if you pay tuition at toledo, you can come to detroit and train too, if you want.

But seriously, Blanke is a bad ass.

That's Awsome. The detroit school is much closer to my house so that would allow me to train on my days off too. I'll probably be stopping in there next week to sign up. I'm new to bjj so take it easy on me when I come train there.
:ohyeah:(best smiley I've ever seen so I had to use it even though it has nothing to do with my post)
