Starting First BJJ Class....

I think it is kind of like bridging.

If bridging is what I think it is than...shrimping is kinda like that, except you do it on your side.

Well....my Bjj days are over (for now). College has started up again and I am living back on campus with no car and a pile of homework. Bjj...I'll miss you old friend. 'till summer vacation!

Maybe you can treat yourself to some good BJJ books to keep your mind in it, and practice some moves on your own. Some people even use grappling dummies. Or roommates.

[bushido_man96]

You might ask to see if you can practice with a wrestling club on campus as well.

[baronbvp]

Or join the team, or practice with them.

Either way, the conditioning that you will gain from wrestling will be amazing. The conditioning, at least, will transfer to your BJJ training.

Yes it would.

Unfortunately, there is no wrestling club or team on campus, nor anyplace with mats that could be used. On the other hand, my arch rival was into wrestling in high school, so I'd rather that he not have an outlet to train either and let me spruce up again this summer

[baronbvp]

You have an arch rival? What are you competing for?

I'd say life in general. He's kinda like Lex Luther except without the looks or smarts.

Wow! You have your own personal Lex Luther! That's something. I'd have to say the best rival I have is more like "Thug #1." You know, the bad guy that isn't good enough to get a name or even any speaking lines.
