My instructor of 3 years, "Dudu" Barros has finally moved his school out of his parents basement and into a full service MMA gym in Akron, OH. The new place rules, so I thought I'd post some pictures. <img src="http://www.geocities.com/eduardobarrosjj/Picture087.jpg"> <img src="http://www.geocities.com/eduardobarrosjj/Picture090.jpg"> To celebrate the Grand Opening, we will be hosting a seminar with Shaolin on February 12th. He will also teach class the following Monday. I can't wait for more info: www.dudubarrosjj.com
Wow old thread. So it seems we, at the Panther Grappling Club, have a dojo to storm in revenge for the dual meet debacle last spring... LOL Just kidding dude. That looks like a good gym. Thanks for your advice a few weeks ago it made a lot of sense. See you guys at the Pittsburgh tournament in September?
I will update the links shortly. We are in the process of revamping the website. Dudu may be moving to a bigger gym. There are a lot of exciting things going on with Dudu's team. I actually was looking for something and found this link and realized that the website wasn't in this thread. We get a lot of hits from Sherdog so I wanted to make sure that I had the newer address on the site.
Sorry to be bumping old threads..but I just wanted to say I've been training there for 1.5 years and was VERY surprised to find this thread! kimurense, thank you. we've upgraded and already got a new gym since then. <img src="http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w113/Lordarshyn/jj2.jpg" />
That's luke. He's like..13 or 14, very well disciplined, his Dad,and other martial arts taught him to bow before entering or leaving the gym. Very respectful kid.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with Eduardo "Dudu" Barros. Here he is winning his second Brazilian national championship at the tender age of 15 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oexku8xt0h0
