1-2 Weeks International Training?

Does anyone know any gyms that cater for this kind of thing? Gyms where people can go and live in a different country and train for like 2 weeks solid twice a day or something? I thought it might be quite an interesting alternative to the usual holiday

Thailand offers that kind of thing. Fairtex Pattaya comes to mind.

yeah there are loads of these gyms in thailand. Tiger Muay Thai is one i've looked at in the past:

Mixed Martial Arts MMA Training Program and schedule @ Tiger Muay Thai and MMA Training Camp, Phuket, Thailand.

I was hoping for somewhere in the States ideally (That's International for me, I'm European), also No Gi. Sorry for not being clear.

I'd imagine if you just call up a gym in a state you want to go to and pay like half months dues they'd let you go for a couple weeks. Explain to them you're on a grappling vacation.
