Nice pics.

But are you taking the picture and the only reason you aren't in any of them?

Man. I am really losing my hair in that pic, I should just shave the entire head already. At least there isn't one of me, getting arm barred or heaving like a tired out of shape wanna be grappler that I am.

well did you really think it would be something else besides a primary BJJ school? we have a couple fighters coming out of the academy with debut's in september, so i guess theyre trying to fit an octagon in there. we have tonsss of gyms in hawaii that cater to the more mma driven guy... i love how our academy is 'old school' in that sense.

(we do have muay thai and wrestling class every week)
