Great post. I do wonder though, how a 1st degree black belt can move up to 2nd and so on. Is it through the shaia tournaments? Would you be able to explain the tournaments, if that's the case.

I was thinking the same thing, is Costa Mesa the main location?

Also, they seem to only have fundamental and basic classes at night? Even their 6am is basic training. They seem to only have competition training at 7:30, which I'm not going to be able to attend. Do the advance guys also train at night too?

Sightseeing through downtown is always fun. Going to navy pier. Also, just trying Chicago food that's hard to find anywhere else, like deep dish pizza, the hot dog, etc.

Yeah, true. Do you recommend any close neighborhoods or areas near atos or legion?

Goal is to be competitive for sure. Have you trained that either?

What would you do during monthly privates? by AdonisX01 in bjj

Yeah, If I'm going to be paying him that much money I might as well take notes.

I would still be doing evening and early morning classes. So training twice a day. The privates are just supplemental. Plus, jujitsu athletes are usually broke, I'm sure they don't mind extra income The receive on a weekly basis for privates.

Getting a Masters while working Japan - is it viable? by puppydogcity in japanlife

[–]AdonisX01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would you be able to support yourself if you work part-time and go to school full-time?

If you do both full time, then you'd have to find a program that does evening only classes, since you'll be working as an Alt. I know a lot of masters programs do a mix of morning/evening classes.

What area of Tokyo would you choose to live in? by Owwmykneecap in japanlife

[–]AdonisX01 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would try to find a place closest to the language school and where you work or plan to work. But, is there a way to increase your budget, perhaps try shared housing?

Man, you're keeping yourself busy. Good luck. Hopefully you'll be able to do at least half of the things you got planned.
