I believe this is the school. I have attended a seminar there by Bustamante.

They have shows about twice a month now and its getting better all the time.

There was also the death in Wichita in 95 that he was talking about. I was actually at the event. That was a weird feeling.

Really? I guess I never heard of that one. I know there was a death in boxing at Harrah's a few years back

The guy didn't die, but he did have a TBI and has not been able to work or have the same quality of life. . . Does that feel weird? You know the part where you are full of shit? Quit making up stories. . .

you are correct. between 78th and 79th on Quivera, just a mile or so north of the 435 exit.

never been there, but i've seen it numerous times. i live in lawrence, ks, and train in KC, but i train in my instructors basement.

too bad BTT doesn't have their own gym there. i imagine a lot of people would stop in if they knew it wasn't just Krav Maga.

does this btt gym in kc still exist? I checked the website and kc isn't on the list of locations anymore.

my brother in kc is looking for a bjj gym to train at.

Any word on if BTT still exists in kc?

[MIDMOBOX]

Of the about 50 differnt MMA trainers I know of in Missouri, BTT is not amoung them. The Krav maga School is still around. There is an ATT in Columbia Missouri and another based out of the Police Academy in KC. KC is becoming a meca for amateurs. You have 5 or 6 good schools that are fighting all the time. There are also about 10 diffenrt Amateur MMA production companies in MO. Like Cage of Honor, Clash in the Cage, Caveman Battles, WUF productions Midwest Fightfest and Cage Championships. Or even Mid-mo-MMA productions whoses first show is Feb 17 in Moberly(had to get the plug in)(intrested in fighting PM)

If anyone has a Missouri area MMA school nor indivual fighter they want me put on my contact list just PM the info (yes I share the list with the other promoters) Or if anyone has info on the mythical BTT KC send it to me.

2nd nod for Crawfords. I've been going for about 3 months now and love it there. Great guys, and lots of talent.

Crawford's puts out a lot of fighters, go to his webpage www.crawfordsmma.com Then page to his fighters page, it seems a mile long. Any of the offshoots of crawfords as well such as
House of Pain or Caveman crew

another excellent KC school with a much more traditional approach www.welcomematjudoclub.com
