I live in the lakewood area and would like anyone's non-biased opinions of the academies in my area namely, john ouano's, ralph gracie in placentia w/brad jackson, tinguinha, caique, and fernando vasconcelos. thank you.
If you are considering driving to Placentia(OC) or to Caique(South Bay) that is covering alot of territory. There are alot of academies in this area.
A couple of places more local to Lakewood are:
The former NG academy located across the street from the Long Beach Towne Center.
BTT in Long Beach with Marcelo Pedomo.
Antonio McKee's BodyShop has a BJJ BB, it's located within a stones throw of Fritz :)
where is btt located in long beach? who is the black belt at body shop? thank you
Not sure where the BTT is in LB but I could find out for you. There's a student of Marcelo's that posts here and goes by "RicksonIsGod" You could make a thread attn to him.
The BB @ the BodyShop is Cobb Whitehorse who is a BB under Francisco Bueno
i would go to the subfighter academy on carson st.
