    There is MMA training on in Point Blank Submissions on Saturday. Not really suitable for beginners though so don't know if it would be suitable or not.

    Thanks. I have a few questions. Who is an instuctor? I mean what is his experience, what MAs did he take up etc? Does the training take place regularly on Sat?

    Thanx. I've just checked your website and noticed that trainings on Sat are open sessions/sparring classes - what does it mean? They're not regular classes when you learn new techniques? I'm a beginner and wondering if they're suitable for someone like me

    Mmm probably not - we have a beginners course starting on Sept 6 after which you can decide which class would suit you.

    Cheers, but it's the same story like in black dragon on Sat - just sparring

    Coaches would mainly be Vinny Connolly and to a lesser degree myself. Vinny has some great coaching methods for the aspects of MMA, we've got a batch of new recruits at the moment so it's a great time to slot in with others of the same level. Training is on every Saturday at 6, come rain or shine! My coaching credentials are razor sharp humour and a winning smile! :D
