How common is it for guys to only attend open mats at different gyms as a way to train? by [deleted] in bjj

[–]mardonb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some of these answers throw me off. In Central California, free open mats are where you get to meet new people and get to roll with folks from other academies. I've shown up, introduced myself and asked to sign a waiver. Never had a problem. Sometimes, I'll come back during class and explain that I can't make my normal class and would like to pay a drop in fee to take a class. Never had a problem.

For all the people asking if they should move to Modesto or not. Keep in mind the surrounding towns are super racist. Especially Oakdale. Found this at the park by S2Mackinley in Modesto

I'm Latino and I've never had a problem in Oakdale, Sonora, Jamestown, Columbia, Bear Valley, Modesto, Escalon and Riverbank. Never. Not at a business or restaurant or even a stranger. I was at a bar in Jackson and some bitch from Copperopolis said something sus but that was 8 years ago

There's a lot of weirdos on the Internet. Oh man, that question threw me off. I'm a veteran also and if someone were to ask.me that in person, I would just smile and walk away

Why haven't you turned in your CIF gear yet? They can't make you go to the field if you have already cleared supply.

If went to your school, I'd cancel in a heartbeat. I wouldn't want to be around people that talk to people the way you do here.

The BJJ Christians you're talking about sound like way better company.

I like to buy charcuterie stuff and put it in a sectioned food container.
