    If you are willing to travel, Tuatha De Dannan are in Portlaoise - well worth the commute to train with the lads up there.

    There's a good BJJ club in Blyry in athlone, great fighter from dublin teaching the class. Also, kickboxing and loads of other arts depending on what you're into. Check out "Athlone budokan" on face book or they have a website as well i think.

    Yeah, it's next to the tile place. There's a big red sign about halfway up the estate, in that group of units.

    BJJ is not MMA, it's 1 component of the sport just like Thai Boxing or Judo.

    Rush Boxing club and Rush Martial Arts head coach.

    I know, thats why I said about the kickboxing and other classes. It's a martial arts center, loads of different things down there. There's judo, tae kwon do, ninjutsu, silat.
