Lion Fight Baza<br />www.fightbaza.ru<br /><br />2. Strela Team vk.com/club27808241<br /><br />3. Ronin Family www.roninfamily.ru<br /><br />4. Gracie Barra Central District: http://gracie-barra.ru/ <br /><br />5. BJJ Globetrotters: www.capoeiranaveia.ru<br /><br />6. Ludus Team (Adaev Team) www.ludusteam.ru<br /><br />I think these are the main ones although there are a few others. <br />Kristian Cestaro (Ribeiro Team) http://vk.com/id167837264<br />Gymnasium etc<br /><br />Sorry for not updating the main article!!<br /><br />PLEASE BE AWARE:<br /><br />Facilities vary enormously between clubs. Lion Fight Baza the best quality facilities while a few others are just basements with a question regarding cleaning and what health problems you could pick up there god only knows. Fight Baza is affilaited with Gracie Barra<br /><br />Strela team is probably the biggest team out there in Moscow and are affiliated with Alliance. The also do not allow members to train at other bjj schools and kick people out from time to time for this. You may be asked to leave at any time for going to a seminar/training session at another club. (although I think there is some double standards on this, like some guys still do come to other clubs but don't get kicked out as they are good grapplers and are too valuable for the competition team.<br /><br />3. BJJ Globetrotters and Gracie Barra Central I think are more laid back which is nice but also means colleagues are not so serious about what they are doing.<br /><br />Many of the clubs also have a big problem with instructor attendance. I see that instructors very often don't treat bjj seriously enough and think it is ok to miss class for no good reason and leave the students to train themselves. (There are a few exceptions but I think broadly this is the case and a big problem)<br /><br />Prices vary. Gymanasium is extremely expensive and is for rich young kids. Other clubs vary in pricing but generally if you can pre-pay for a year you should not be paying more than RUR 40-50k for the year with unlimited bjj. If you do go for the prepayment, make sure the club is one of the more established like Lion or Strella since some of the others (basement clubs) may be around one day, but close the next and you will of course not be able to recover you money if the teacher decides to move on. <br /><br />When you call the club, check who is teaching. It really should be a purple belt or above. While some very good guys with an excellent background in other grappling forms may be teaching, right now you are not getting your moneys worth otherwise. There are now quite a few purples around. <br /><br />Questions welcomeJohnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14971532574765459811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7719375357779749311.post-67444960075912348192013-07-29T09:57:09.360-07:002013-07-29T09:57:09.360-07:00Thanks.

I would not worry about the skill level as this is certainly a hobbyist academy.<br /><br />I don't think they have a training session during the weekend even though they claim to.

I am moving to Moscow in a few weeks, and am interested in continuing my judo, perhaps at the Bronnaya Sloboda club. Could you tell me more about it? Their site is very vague, and has nothing about the pricing, which is an important factor for me. Also, how intense is the training there? I'd like to avoid falling into a semi-olympian training camp where I'll get killed. I speak Russian well. <br /><br />Thanks!Styopahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02229888996039948810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7719375357779749311.post-88447218601126873502013-07-22T03:43:14.585-07:002013-07-22T03:43:14.585-07:00I just got my Blue belt on Saturday (July 20th 201...I just got my Blue belt on Saturday (July 20th 2013) I have been training for 10 months...although I am there almost every day...except for a few injuries had me out...<br /><br />at my academy the average is 1 year-1.5 years... a few have took up to 2 years...I was not expecting it, about a month or two ago, I felt I was ready, cuz I was tapping out a lot of blue belts...I was anxious to get it....then I thought to myself...why rush it..?

I remember reading that a significant proportion of fights end up on the floor, so it was revolutionary to see a style based on this assumption! Anyway, you really seem to know your stuff here.
