Sorry, I thought you were someone else. How are Murty's classes? My brother is thinking about training with him. I know he has excellent credentials and is one of, if not THE best in PA. I live just outside of Scranton.

Downingtown - BAJJI

Pittsburgh.

I'm definitely interested in hearing where other Pittsburghers train. I'm training with a group at CMU, and this semester I won't have time to try anywhere else, but in the future it's a possibility.

classes are great we have a real good group of guys on the matt and murty is awesome.. insane newaza techniques and ridiculous strength and honestly he is the best at coaching and bringing out your skills. ive moved a lot around pa and nj and trained with a lot of good people but he is definately my favorite.

your brother should definately come up to the Y and check it out first lesson is free too you should call ahead or let me know ahead of time if possible. classes are Mon and wednesday 730 to 930

I trained with Murty in college. I cannot say enough good things about him. I advise anyone in the area to check him out.

Steve: I agree 100% i cant believe there are so many jujitsu/sambo/grapplers in the area that do not take advantage of his training.. kinda sad..

when did you graduate if you dont mind me asking?

I graduated in 00 around 98-99 there was a steve who was a green belt i believe?
then in 00-01 there was another steve who i knew really well

I graduated in 1994 (yeah, I'm old.) I was a brown belt when I graduated.

Never knew there were so many Royals on here! forum member tjmitch also went to da U.

Danville PA up in here!
Anyone know anything about the Bloomsburg Grapple Club?

i live in warren county, but train in jamestown, ny

Downingtown here.

Thanks for the info Tom...

My brother talked to Murty on the phone last night. He'll probably stop in and check it out.

Have a good one

I found it on the Blooms University website. Its in the student interest section. I haven't had a chance to workout in forever, I am a resident at Geisinger. What about you? Where is there mat space around here?

Doc, I don't know if you will see this in time, but if you want to, a few of us meet at the nelson feild house on Monday's and Wednesday's (tomorrow) from 8:00 until around 9:00 PM. Also, I teach some japanesse jiu-jitsu at the local karate school, Crosswinds Martial Arts, if you would like to stop by. I love working with different people and am open to almost any types of training.

Please do stop by, either at the field house or anytime at Crosswinds in Bloomsburg. At the field house look for Joel (me) or Ryan, my good friend from NY who goes to school here, or me at Crosswinds, you can also call me there if you wish at (570) 784-7922 on Monday's, Wednesday's, and Thursday's from 5:00 pm until 8:00 pm. You can also e-mail me at jujitsujn@hotmail.com. Hope to hear from you soon.

Just wondering if any of you guys can help me out but are there any no-gi/mma gyms in SE PA area. Thanks Alot
