NYC-TD at the beginning of June

**LiamSP** · Posted On: 6/10/2009 11:46pm

I live in Accord, NY 12404.

The school is in New Paltz, NY. It is upstate, so things are a bit spread out.

I know that crosstraining is the **** and plan on doing a shitload. Heres my plan. I just worked for 6 months while living with my parents. I have alot saved up. I have no commitments next year so I am considering two things. A prolonged road trip where I would stop at any dojo that would have me along the way, kinda to get a feel for styles that would suit my goals, kinda not to let my skills atrophy. and a 3-4 month stint in NYC where I could work part time and train daily. I'm particularly looking at kyokushin and sambo schools.

My TKD instructor starting giving me **** about cross training when I told him that my Judo instructor wanted me to start training for my bb test. I explained to him that I was doing judo before I started at the school. That and if he wanted me to start an MMA part of the curriculum, I would have to cross train. That changed his mind.

Thanks are due also to the lovely ladies who came, took video, and generally brought up the level of sophistication in our motley crew.

My lady friend took some moving pictures of us rasslin' and rough-housing with ye olde gloves. I have some gi work with Jack (long), a dupe vid of the stick work, and footage of me and Steve rolling no-gi, plus him sharing a leglock defense and a no-gi pass.

Youtube, hurry UP!

Oh god I don't know how to work the picture upload.

Does this work?

There we go. First we have the lovely ladies, second is Jack doing his impression of an octopus murdering me, and third is my beautiful, power-bearded mug, about to get punched by a man much smaller than me, who resembles a rodent that stores food in its cheeks.

Pic three looks like you're practicing your post-jab grimace whilst gloving up :)

Any vids? (or am I not looking hard enough?).

nice. Didn't realise they were buried in the thread, or else I'd have looked for them.

So, 1.2, you're not really a stirker, but were just jamming and having fun yeah with Squerilli? Or you are a striker as well as Judo/BJJ?

These look like fun. maybe one day there'll be one closer to ButtF**k TN, or I'll be further North!

I did Isshinryu until yesterday, which means I did light to medium contact sparring with head contact frowned upon, no clinches or knees, bad foam-dipped gear, and no leg kicks. So...I have a few things to work on in that department.

Ahh....I take it there's more information in the Flamewar threads with your username on? I saw Vieux Normand had some "irony" thread up and folks were referencing the other YMAS threads. I try and avoid those. No need to waste braincells I can't spare.

Hope you're happy training MAs. Thanks for the vids, again.

You may now return OT.
