Knuckle Up MMA in GA?

TheJutsu · 07-10-2007, 08:50 PM

I'm looking for an affordable place to train BJJ and a Knuckle Up just opened up near me in Gwinnett, does anyone here have any experience with this gym? What about monthly costs? It's been way too long since my last judo session and I need to get back in shape. Any responses would be greatly appreciated.

I train at Knuckle Up in Kennesaw. Diego Saraiva should still be at the Gwinnett location. I recommend Knuckle Up and Diego Saraiva.

I would reccommend Creighton Mixed Martial Arts in Duluth. www.paulcreighton.com

Is that for unlimited (MMA/BJJ/etc?)

Wow it's a bit more expensive than I imagined. Alliance is a bit too far of a drive for me, as is Paul Creighton's gym. Really the only thing close to me is that Gwinnett Knuckle Up and the Francis Fong Academy, I guess I'll just look into that and pray I can afford it. Thanks for the info! And vnnguyen where you live man it's always good to have another viet guy who doesn't train in tae kwon do/kung fu around here lol.

I train at KnuckleUp in Gwinnett. It's a great gym with some good instructors. I checked out Creighton's gym first, but his prices were too high. He was super nice when I went in there and the students were all good people, too, but I just couldn't get over the cost. I ended up paying $49 for unlimited boxing and kickboxing with a $99 initiation at KU.

Diego is still the head BJJ instructor there. He just won fight of the night at the last UFC, so you know you could be training with worse. Plus, if you feel like it, you can travel to Sandy Springs and train with the Assuncao brothers. If you go to Midtown you can train with Jim Abrille. Those are all great BJJ guys and great instructors.

Stop by KnuckleUp and get a free week. They were giving away cards for a free month at Digger's on Saturday. You can easily find out if you like it or not.
