Hi All, i’ve heard about somebody named “Jerry” who is involved in teaching brazilian jiujistu in Chengdu? Just wondering if anyone has any info regarding his contact details or knows of any opportunities for training or teaching BJJ. I’m a brown belt in BJJ with 7 years of training and competition experience and i’m looking for some training partners or opportunities to teach BJJ (i’ll arrive in Chengdu in February) Thanks!
December 20, 2012 at 10:33 am #24824JerrySParticipantCome train. I am head of the bjj scene here, also brown belt, 11 years exp. 3 blue belts and rest whites. Can’t really get better training with whites and blues, but the core group of guys here are getting better.
PS: It’s my future goal to make BJJ a huge thing here, aka, ill be here for many many years :).
December 20, 2012 at 10:34 am #24825JonathanMemberthe man himself! thanks Jerry, i’ll pm you
December 20, 2012 at 11:36 pm #24835Al the DeadParticipantOn a side note Jerry: Have you managed to find/make a decent martial gym? Im struggling to find a place to train at the moment, so if yours is close i want to give it a try.
December 21, 2012 at 12:34 am #24836JerrySParticipantI teach at 2 diff gyms. We are looking for another place. Hopefully i will strike a deal with a dance studio for a long term location. But at the moment, one location is at the karate studio and the other is at 25 hours.
December 24, 2012 at 3:05 am #24873CharlieKeymasterI’m down to join for some no-gi action. That happens on Sunday, right? Can you post the address Jerry?
December 24, 2012 at 4:12 am #24882JerrySParticipant成都长顺中街98号少城府邸3楼, 30 Rmb per class Wends night.
Probably next month or Feb there will be another class added. Right now for no-gi MMA/BJJ, it’s just Wends nights 7-9pm. The first 30 min are grueling crossfit style workouts, then boxing/mma/muah thai for another 30. Next 30 min are me teaching No-Go BJJ. Last 30 min we just roll. Average is abotu 10-14 students, quite packed for a small space.
Not bad, 2 hours for 30 rmb, can’t beat that!!!
December 24, 2012 at 4:24 am #24883CharlieKeymasterGreat, thanks for the info!

December 24, 2012 at 4:27 am #24884JerrySParticipantheh yea, spelling isnt my forte.
December 24, 2012 at 4:42 am #24888CharlieKeymasterQuote:heh yea, spelling isnt my forte.It’s cool. I expect to be choked out for correcting you if/when we spar. I made several comments about how BJJ looks gay at gyms in the US and paid dearly for it.
December 28, 2012 at 1:04 am #25102kittyMemberso we can just pay 30rmb for each wed. night we come?
what is the address of the location?
December 28, 2012 at 1:24 am #25103JerrySParticipant成都长顺中街98号少城府邸3楼
Yes 30 RMB is due after class.
We will not meet this coming Wends, due to holidays (i am saddened by this, i want to train). Last Wends we did circuit training, with a small group (6-8 peoples), the training can be more intense.
The last class for 2012 will be held this Sunday at 25 hours, 11-1 PM.

Most likely will go out to eat after class, as a group.
December 28, 2012 at 1:34 am #25104kittyMemberok thanks:) i plan to study in chengdu, so hopefully arrive end of Feb.
what gear is needed for the class?
December 28, 2012 at 1:56 am #25108JerrySParticipantshorts and tshirt for men, women, sports bra and shirt over it, for pants, running long tights and shorts over it. I do the same, minus the sports bra, i dont think they make it for dudes…
Like the guy in the red or to his left.
But my gear is similar to this:
December 28, 2012 at 2:07 am #25113kittyMemberhaha k thx, no gear for the other muay thai or boxing like gloves or that kinda gear?
December 28, 2012 at 2:14 am #25115JerrySParticipantsure bring those. Not at the level yet, but bring gloves and wrap for Wends, if you have a Gi, then that on Sunday.

I was hoping to do no-Gi but I can’t make it to that location by 7pm on Thursdays. What’s the deal with Gi’s here – do you get them on Taobao or something? Any suggestions Jerry?
January 10, 2013 at 3:04 pm #25496JerrySParticipantYou can train No Gi on sunday’s but its preferable to bring a gi.
You can get a basic gi on Taobao. You mentioned it to me last year (with the Chinese characters), so i searched for it and bought it. A generic one is about 460 RMB. It’s best to get one from the states, since they are higher quality.
Once this club starts picking up, i will find a supplier and try to get my own brand of gi’s. Still 460 for a ‘Koral’ is quite good, not the real thing, but still useable and durable.
As of right now, the average is 10 peoples per class. Not bad after a year with me as head. 2013 looks like it’s going to be a fantastic year for me and BJJ!
My friend has a really good black Gi, price is 800 RMB. Very good Gi, it’s just too big for him and he needs to get rid of it.
