I actually just posted this on another thread, but it got me thinking and I figured I'd ask the advice of people who could give some suggestions from experience, possibly.
I took some Aiki-Jitsu for a while, about a year ago. We worked a lot of throws. I miss it a lot. We don't work grappling at the school I study at, now. I think we may at some point. We're supposed to get a guy to start teaching a Judo class, but from what my wife says (she knows the guy, used to take judo at the college from him) he can be a lot of talk. Not that he isn't good, it's just that he doesn't always do what he says he's going to do.
I would love to get back into grappling. I'm thinking about this BJJ dojo in Liverpool, NY, about 40 minutes from my place, to supplement the stand-up I get from my current school, but the money thing is an issue. I could only probably make it once a week, if that, and I don't know if I'd have to pay for a full membership.
I don't know if it would be worth paying like $90 a month to take 1 class a week. Well, actually if that were the case, it wouldn't be an issue. I jsut couldn't afford it at this point. But, maybe like $10 a class, or something. Of course, a lot of places make you sign a contract.
Anyway, I just thought maybe I could get some helpful advice.
