Excellent times paired with an excellent location, this can not open soon enough.:) I was just wondering are all of those classes open to beginners?

yes, talk to ann

i cannot stress enough all these classes are suitable for beginners. big misconception is i only train fighters, they are a very small % of the guys in SBG. beginners, out of shape etc etc all welcome down

Brilliant thanks John see you on Monday!

I only joined SBG a couple of months ago had trained in a couple of clubs for short periods over the years but never stuck with it as to be honest I was muck at it ha ha but I find the way they teach there is great and makes it alot easier to pick it up, everyone that trains there is sound and more than willing to help you out of you have any questions anyone thinking bout taking a class get down you would be suprised how addictive it is

SBG Ireland

that tenners in the post haha

also...Arek Sternalski who will be teaching the bjj there just won silver at the Polish Open No Gi Championships at brown belt level

bjj-fighter

Will there be any cool stuff on monday for the opening? Black-tie event with a red carpet? haha.

New SBG opening on the day I finally turn 18, pretty damn cool!

SBG Ireland

we will have an 'official' opening/ribbon cutting in a few weeks and there'll be some pretty big names there for that

...besides i timed it to coincide with your 18th...whadda ya want cooler than that!!

Will the weights area remain?

SBG Ireland

no, the 'weights' are was a dangerous joke. dividing wall gone and now just one big training area

Be like Nutella

Now now.... respect to the old school weights area... used to use that rickety old bench without a spotter .... fun times... I can't imagine the dividing wall gone and a much bigger mat... Hope the disturbing quantity of mirrors remains .... it was like feckin enter the dragon

Is the BJJ a 2 hour class on Tuesday or is it turn up anytime in between 12 and 2 to roll? I've only got an hour on my lunch unfortunately.

thelibertyboy

Yeah I'm in the same boat...would I be able to turn up at half 12 and leave at half 1?

Thanks

SBG Ireland

Any info on the pricing structure, monthly, weekly?, per class etc

SBG Ireland

That's all been finalized but unlike sbg longmile there will be a pay per class option

Don't forget first week opening is completely free so come down and try it out

i would also like to know this. is it the same as longmile or is it different? when you say offers for students is that on pay as you go or monthly?? great to see sbg expanding and really great coaches available here

SBG Ireland

Over 20 people on the mat for our first ever class

Pricing will be all finalized this week....just get down and train as much as u can this week as training is free!

HellsAngel

Had a quick look this evening. Weird I thought, John Kavanagh is training in Brendan O'Toole's old TKD venue at Exchequer St while Brendan is now training at John's old BJJ venue in Harold's Cross......Anyway, excellent facility, JK and SBG go from strength to strenth.

thelibertyboy

was wondering wat the craic was with the pay as you go student prices ?:)

SBG Ireland

over 50 people showed up for day 1

looking forward to seeing more tomorrow!

Richy06

Great to hear! Sickened I'm working today and tomorrow :-(

Be like Nutella

Did the lunch time BJJ class today... great set up... Good mat and thick padded Walls for clinch and wrestling ... Loadsa room... Found out how unfit I was quick enough....Didn't matter tho... good craic

Dathai

Feeling it today. Deadly craic. Definitely an impressive set up down there and with the added location it's bound to do well.
