    Waterford Vale Tudo - Tycor Business Park, Waterford. They may be moving soon though, not sure. BJJ class is taught by a purple belt from Poland on saturday's there also.

    I train Judo in WIT Sports Hall, Tuesdays & Thursdays at 7:15pm. Drop me a message if you want any further info.

    I saw a Martial arts club on kilcohan rd (couple of months ago actually), in an industrial estate just accross the rd from the dog track. I think Pat Rockett is invloved and I think there are MMA classes as well.

    Anyone know anymore about it?

    Tiny-Nioclas, WIT also have a Karate club in the sports hall. Unfortunately it's the same times as Judo (they divide the hall between two). Let me know if you want any more info.

    If you up to travelling a bit, there's an mma club in wexford town. Glad to have you down with us. For info and maps check us out here at www.wexmma.com

    Alright Tiny, thought from the nick it was probably you, but seeing other posts where you have a Canon 400D and a 6.5x55 confirmed it :D

    Eric here, how are ya Son? (We adopted Nioclas years ago)

    I'd look up the Waterford Vale Tudo lads, good bunch and no egos wrecking your head. Good laugh to train with, not sure there's anybody up there close to your weight category, but you'll be fine if you concentrate on using technique to play, rather than using pure caveman size and strength to muscle through. Of course in a comp. you can use it all, but better to have the skills to back up your size lad.

    And the lads in Wexford are hosting Steve Morris in June, I would make the trip to train with him, I'll drive if you want to travel with me lad? Let me know, or say it to Jamie, see ya soon!

    For any of the lads who haven't met Nioclas, he's called Tiny very ironically!
