Thread: Hello..

Hello ppl, Im new to all this,
my names Andre im 21 from surrey and i love mma

i used 2 do abit of tai boxin wen i was younger but nuthin serious, and ive been lifting weights since i was like 12
i wana take up mma now tho while im stil young!
i work fulltime but i always train everysingle day and am in top physical shape.

is there any decent mma places round the guildford area in surrey that do weekend class's? and would it be best to start doin MMA class's or take up a specific martial art like kick boxin or BJJ?

this site looks good and i cant wait 2 check out all the different sections coz ive always had an interest in training, injurys, fighters ect

Hey Andre! How you doing mate.. welcome!

Wow all these young kids doing MMA is making me feel old.. the last 2 posts have been been them saying since they were 12.. I just got into it when I was like 20 somthing...

How do. Yep startin them young indeed. My son started jj age 8. He's 12 now and started training at utc 3 weeks ago.

Some of the kids that do my class are between 14-16 and youngers ones watching want to join in too, they're still going even when some of the pro fighters are gas'in!!!!

Wish I was a kid again.. all we had was chess club and tae kwon do

haha yea makes me feel old looking at the younger gen now who are coming through stimulated by MMA.

But have it all to come - when british fighters are much improved due to improved knowledge of the sport and training facilities... and we can stamp ourselves on the sport (since everyone else kicks our ass at football)

im only 21 and i feel old already! :yes:
i guess mma is betta late then neva
