K San Posted May 26, 2006 Posted May 26, 2006 Find a way to learn BJJ without a instructor but have a partner willing to learnyeah theres no schools within 10 miles of my house or 50 miles for that mattermodified pl0x look
Nightshadow Posted May 26, 2006 Posted May 26, 2006 I personally recommend not doing that. First 3 months with a good insturctor is breaking bad habits that you will have before you can start your training. Biggest part of learning a new style is reprograming yourself to it.I have books on BJJ, but I have been training with a insturctor. The books are only good to refresh yourself on techniques, not to learn from. Their is alot things that you must learn that can't be taught in book or DVD. You will develop bad habits that only a insturctor can see and correct. If you have any bad habits techniques means you will serious injury yourself or someone else. If your wanting to learn BJJ see if their is another style of grappling near you. Goodluck - NightShadow We Practice for Thousands of Days,Whether We Win or Lose is Decided in an Instant
patusai Posted May 26, 2006 Posted May 26, 2006 no instructor makes effective learning much more difficult. Good luck "Don't tell me the sky's the limit because I have seen footprints on the moon!" -- Paul Brandt

K San Posted May 27, 2006 Author Posted May 27, 2006 Sadly im near tampa and only jiu jitsu or BJJ place is in miami and i really want to learn a form of submission grappling
K San Posted May 27, 2006 Author Posted May 27, 2006 Ju st found a school only 45 mins away from were i live
ps1 Posted May 28, 2006 Posted May 28, 2006 GREAT!!! Let us know how it goes! "It is impossible to make anything foolproof because fools are so ingenius."
UseoForce Posted May 28, 2006 Posted May 28, 2006 That kind of attitude won't help, trust me. Talk it over, have a rational conversation. 45 minutes is a long way to be driving several times a week. Maybe you can work some special arrangements with the intructor, like private lessons on weekends or something. If it works, use it!If not, throw it out!
