alurwin Newbie 9 posts	Sunday 13th July 2003 at 14:41 Rob, Just read your post about leavin Sheffield and going to Newcastle and that you couldn't find a decent place to train BJJ. I was at uni in Sheffield but finished last year and returned to Newcastle where I'm originally from. Anyway, there are a few clubs up here with Blue Belts from Alliance Jiu Jitsu (dunno whether u heard of them) but let me know if you want to know times and locations etc Al
Robsco 1319 posts	Monday 14th July 2003 at 00:37 Hey pal, I'm up here now all settled and training at Jesmond with Steve (occasionaly) and at RGJJN with Dave Elliot, which I'll be doing most of my training. Where do you train? heard about Phoenix but it dunt sound too good so not even bothered to take a look. --------- Robsco!

JUST TRAIN WITH DAVE!!! 3 stripe blue belt under Royce Gracie. pain is temporary, pride is forever. "no weapon formed against me shall prosper"
Robsco 1319 posts	Monday 14th July 2003 at 21:09 If you're up here in Newcastle and you don't know Dave Elliot you need to get out more. :o) I'm certainly not looking for anywhere else since finding Dave's class, and Jesmond will just be training on a sunday when Dave dunt have a class on. --------- Robsco!

Robsco 1319 posts	Tuesday 15th July 2003 at 23:01 Dave Elliot runs classes at Wallsend Boy Club (shut it marc! :o) His classes are Wed, Thurs, Fri and Sat 7:00-8:30 although you can go half an hour and leave abt half an hour late, so 2.5hrs for a fiver, or £40/month, which ever works out best for ya. The club in Jesmond is with Steve Muckle and a few others just rolling, not really a proper club, and you don't stand a chance getting in there to train, hell, it took me 6 weeks! Felt like 'Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Instructors from Hell!' :-p You'd be more than welcome at Dave Elliot's classes tho. --------- Robsco!
