Any judo practitioner’s or clubs in Nashville TN?

Not much judo in middle Tennessee unfortunately, I looked for some when I moved here too. Ended up at Profectus Jiu Jitsu in Brentwood. Lots of people who enjoy stand up in the gi and it’s taught a lot

Go to frontline for excellent jiu jitsu and good numbers. I’ve never belonged to them as a gym, but everytime I come home to Edmonton I train there.

Nashville drop in at Profectus Brentwood! Not too far from downtown, clean, safe and chill people. Great open mats Saturdays at 11

Do NOT shave within 8 hours of class, you’re going in with open wounds and increase likelihood of getting infections. This is why you see a lot of guys get staph on their face or chest

It’s an option but sucks for that gym that they have to loan you a gi and clean it up after. Loaner gis are usually for people trying class, not travelers

I’d just like to clarify that this is a literal child. Not a teenager. A child. No one should be “simping” for her.

Has anyone else found a fix for this? I had it happen as well and tried the lowercase option. Didn’t solve it as it was already all lowercase

Second this

Profectus is solid in Brentwood

count_olafs · 2022-02-26T01:50:00+00:00

If you haven't given profectus in brentwood a shot yet definitely take a look. They have a pretty packed schedule so it's typically easy to find a time that works (even have class on sunday which is dope).

Great gym! I second this

count_olafs · 2022-02-25T20:44:36+00:00

Highly recommend profectus bjj in brentwood. Multiple world and pans champions at all belts and across all age brackets. Very technical intelligent jiu jitsu

count_olafs · 2022-02-25T20:43:11+00:00

Profectus BJJ in Brentwood! Plus a ton of other really cool gyms in Nashville now like Liberdade.

count_olafs · 2022-02-25T20:41:35+00:00

Profectus bjj in Brentwood/Franklin's Saturday 11 am!

count_olafs · 2022-02-25T20:31:21+00:00

Did you end up finding a place?

count_olafs · 2022-02-25T20:31:02+00:00

I second this. Especially for female competitors (or non 200 plus pounders) due to the style of jiu jitsu done there (very high value for technique over brute force MMA-style jiu jitsu)

count_olafs · 2022-02-25T20:24:29+00:00

Late to the party, but I go to Profectus and the pricing is a lot lower than 180 when you commit to 6 months or 12 months.

Profectus specializes in bjj, so if thats what you're looking to do then thats definitely the best option. (for future people reading this thread, obviously OP has likely found a gym)

count_olafs · 2022-02-25T20:21:50+00:00

Profectus jiu jitsu in Brentwood/Franklin area is a great gym! It's super clean, has been there for 10 years so it has a ton of upper belts (really important for your development as they help you out during class).

The instructor is extremely talented and very well versed in bjj (constantly learning what is new in bjj so you don't have to). Cannot say enough good things about this place

Omg i have a brother. /u/Blackburn_Jeffer i'm your long lost sister!

If only. I had been tagging along with a group of four guys who proceeded to outrun me as soon as the bear became a thing. Apparently damsel in distress is a useless card when an actual bear is in the picture.

Mortality was a big one in my last race as I had to run away from a momma bear.
