BJJ Road Trip

    Myself, Breslinho, Mullinho and the brothers Sheridan were thinking of a little project. We would love to train at every bjj gym in the country (that will have us) and keep a blog that we can hopefully stick up on bjj.ie. With pictures and interviews with the coaches and whatnot, a very intellectual affair altogether.

    I dont think theres a gym in every county but sure we'll go to every county with a gym in it!

    We need to know if anyone would even have us first, so please let us know if youd like to see this!

    If any other clubs are interested please let me know.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 963 ✭✭✭Richy06


    Ye gonna take a video camera around with ye to document it lads?! Be awesome to see!


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 2,917 ✭✭✭Barry.Oglesby


    You should pitch this to TV3, tell them it's on ITV at the same time and they'll be all over it.

    you could call it "come train with me" and have some sarcastic comentator do the voice over...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 963 ✭✭✭Richy06


    Awesome, another decent documentary for me to cut 10 minutes out of for air!

    I imagine i will get more savvy with this blogspot business as time goes on, just a quick post to get us started.

    cheers.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 21,981 ✭✭✭✭Hanley


    BJJ Globetrotter did it first.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,158 ✭✭✭Chris89


    Oh i forgot to mention, I doubt there is a club in every county, but maybe at least a training group or something, If youre doing bjj in a county with no bjj academys, let me know, well try and get down to you!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,720 ✭✭✭Sid_Justice

    Thought of a funny name so changed the URL http://bjjaysus.blogspot.com/

    Open to correction on the funny bit..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,158 ✭✭✭Chris89


    Bit of a dissapointing response from a lot of the clubs i emailed, dissapointing in the sense that they didnt reply. I'm not sure if thats because they dont like the sound of us or they just dont check their inboxes too regularly!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,720 ✭✭✭Sid_Justice


    at this stage surely you know someone in every club, give the lads a text sure.


  • Registered Users Posts: 24 toaldingham


    Again, you're more than welcome at GBNI.

    Ciaran


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,660 ✭✭✭SDTimeout


    Facebook is your best bet I'd say for the other clubs.
