Get to the point where you can pretty much beat up anyone who doesn't train like you and the confidence to put people in their place when they get froggy becomes completely natural.

Three years of aikido training have left me confident I can put him in his place if he gets froggy.

I have found that anyone who can handle themselves with any kind of certainty doesn't feel the need to overcompensate by being a dick to people, most of a fight is mental and you trying to tell people not to be confident is going to get someone killed.

Does anybody know why small joint manipulation is illegal in MMA and BJJ? I've been thinking about it since a new guy tried to twist my fingers to get out of a rear naked choke. It didn't do much.

My guess is that they break easily and heal poorly.

Recommendations for bjj/mma schools in the Minneapolis area? Preferably not cult-y or having an overly serious attitude. Something more for a hobbyist.

It didn't do much. It was explained to me this way: "A broken toe or finger will never make you lose a fight, but it could end your career." Small joint manipulation is generally a terrible way to try to influence the immediate situation, even in a hostile environment. Meanwhile it is a fairly high risk of leaving permanent damage that will negatively affect someone forever, even when done in a friendly environment.

Curious where the consensus on the ineffectual results of small joint manipulations came from. I've heard the opposite from some folks that an unusable hand is a serious detriment in a streetfight (not implying the aforementioned statement is wrong just wondering if there was some well experience and respected source that claims it).

It's not that its ineffectual, breaking/fracturing a finger and trying to roll with someone sucks, just the efficacy of it as an escape or a strategy. I mean yea you could break or fracture a finger while I have you in an RNC but instead of working an escape that could work you're hoping that 1) you can break my finger before you go to sleep and 2) if you do break one of my fingers that I don't just get more pissed/ignore it and just choke you out. In short I've rolled with a fractured toe and a really messed up finger before and it kinda sucks. I've never rolled while choked unconscious.

There's a Rickson Gracie school in Minneapolis I'd probably start there. The Alliance affiliate could be good. A brief glance of the rest of them are basically meh. Beware of anyone who says they are a black belt but doesn't list who they got it from.

the yellow dart posted:Anyone have input on BJJ gyms in northern Virginia? Coming from a Riberio gym so a little biased towards their affiliate in Springfield, but looking for anywhere else that might be interesting in the Alexandria/eastern NOVA section (that isn't associated with LI). The Caio Terra affiliate seems decent and I've heard good things about Pentagon MMA from muay thai types, but not sure what the scene is like up there right now. I have friends who train at 50/50 and other Vienna/Falls Church gyms, but looking towards Alexandria in particular. https://www.testudobjj.com/ I know this instructor here, Ervin, and he's a great teacher and coach. Totally recommend. Pentagon MMA also has a very good teacher, Sugi. I think he placed top 8 at -73kg in the 2004 Olympics for Judo representing Mongolia, and is also a BJJ black belt. He's a loving beast, and despite not having great english, is still extremely good at teaching.

Lost pretty bad. Huge knockdown that I barely made the count on, and was way too one dimensional after that, knocked down twice more. Well, couldn't have been more two knockdowns cuz 2 in a round would be fight over. Have video; will share. kimbo305 fucked around with this message at 18:39 on Jul 22, 2017 |

All those naked high kicks were cuz my teammate landed a solid head kick and the fight before me ended on a head kick KO -- just kept visualizing scoring that way instead of putting together straight punch combos. My coach was pretty unhappy with my performance; worse than last year's, maybe. kimbo305 fucked around with this message at 00:44 on Jul 23, 2017 |

Sanda rules, off the top of my head: - no knees or elbows - no striking while attempting a throw or takedown, though you can hit while being grappled - 1pt for each landed punch - 1pt for kicks above the knee and below the waist - 2pts for kicks above the waist - 2pts for a clean throw or fall (like when I tried to teep him off but slipped) - 2pts for pushing opponent off but staying on the platform - 1 pt for a throw where you land on the opponent - 1 pt for knockdowns - win the round for two push outs - win the fight by KO or TKO

kimbo305 posted:His boxing was manageable; I was way anxious and kept diving into his uppercut instead of keeping my distance. I should have let him keep coming to me. I mean he wasn't doing particularly skillfully-well but it seems like you got tilted and weren't effectively defending / countering regardless, I guess. On your second down with thr head kick, that was you losong your footing on the mat right? I need to get my rear end to a competition of some sort so I can get beat up but they are all like 2 hrs away from me in san jose / the south bay v.v Thanks again for the vids

Yeah, my default is to stay on the outside and counter, and that part of my game just disappeared when I stepped onto the platform. Once I got knocked down, I couldn't keep calm enough to cobble anything together, which led to that second huge knockdown. I got into his mindset that I had to hurt him back, which absolutely isn't necessary under the rules to win. The guy hit haaard -- in 3 previous amateur fights and hundreds of rounds sparring, I'd been flash knocked down once. It was such a great equalizer. Getting more sanda experience is hard cuz so few people participate in it. I flew out to TX for one fight :/
