    Hey all,
    Me and my girlfriend will be doing work placement at Avans university in 's-Hertogenbosch in the Netherlands for the summer. We would like to keep up some kind of MA training while there and we are wondering if anyone here has any contact with clubs over there.
    There are no HanMooDo clubs in the netherlands (apparently there is Han Mu Do, which is different), so the two of us doing that is out. I think it might be easiest to join something like a Kickboxing club, BJJ or an MMA club (because if TMA clubs use the finnish system of "seasons" then they wont have any beginners joining in the summer months, which would probably inconvenience said clubs). If the TMA clubs dont use the finnish system and allow beginners to join at any time then we are open to suggestions for other MA schools (with preferance for TKD or Judo).

    A little background on ourselves;
    After next weeks belt grading (hopefully) she will have a yellow belt in HanMooDo and I will have a purple belt. I have also done some Krav Maga in the past and did a year and a half of Judo with ITTralee (but never graded).


    Looking back on this post it looks like Im being quiet demanding, but really we will take anything and Im just trying to make sure that I dont cause any inconvenience to any club that we might join.

    Thanks for any help you might give
    Mike

    Thanks for the info Millionare, unfortunatly there has been a huge error made due to mis communication between my college and the dutch university. Ive been accepted, but I cant start until august and would have to spend a semester there. Im not sure if I will go now because it will delay my graduation if I spend a semester there.
    So Im not sure if ill be going, thanks anyway.
