Hello all.
I think this might be the right forum to start this thread.
Here is the deal: I lift in a gym where they also offer boxing, muay thay, wrestling, jiu jitsu -AND- MMA classes.
I know the ideal scenario for a fighter is to have a background in some grappling art, boxing and MT knowledge, BUT there is this specifically *MMA* classes in my gym...and im wondering if its a good idea to attend to it.
Do you guys think its better to start some boxing classes, then gradually move to judo/bjj/wrestling and muay thay to gain experience...or could i really learn how to fight in a specifically MMA class?
does it sound like a mcdojo concept to you guys?
My gym is pretty legit, the owner teaches BJJ and trained judo with Koga and defeated a Gracie member (dont remember wich one) in a BJJ fight...i really do trust them as a good martial arts school.
But are MMA classes worthy?
thanks for the attention.
