Setting up a BJJ/Judo Club in Dun Laoghaire College?

    Hi there, Ive a few friends involved in the Clubs and Societies in Dun Laoghaire institute/college, and this year as part of the martial arts there they'd like to setup a club that does grappling, either Judo or BJJ. For some reason they've asked me to help find out if there's anyone who might be interested in instructing. Evidently I'm the only one with access to the internet.
    So anyhoo, Im looking to see if there's any instructors people think might be willing to help out with this, and if so to PM me their contact details so I can pass them on.
    Im talking referring to IADT as the college here by the way.
    Thanks in advance.

    Best of luck with it. I'm sure you'll find someone.
    I think Shane from Kokoro gym who posts here has a list of clubs involved so he might know somebody in the area.

    For that area of the universe you might get in touch with the next generation people perhaps Dave Jones or one of his students would teach a BJJ class.

    For judo you might contact Alan Martin here info @ judoireland.com and I'll also pm you his number.

    Have you done BJJ before? Your other option besides getting a coach in is to start a training group that you could do yourself which is how many of the BJJ clubs in Ireland started out.

    Just a thought, then you could get an actual BJJ coach in every couple of months to go through techniques and the like with you and suggest areas to go in.
