[QUOTE="zghorner, post: 2796385, member: 35089"] From '05-'09 seemed martial arts was all I cared about. Back then Redline BJJ in north okc/Edmond was the place to go but now I cannot say. I was never a fan of BJJ mainly because of the Gi and preferred submission wrestling which is basically no gi BJJ. Towards the end of my fascination with MA I focused on pure thai boxing. Theres something about really kicking someone hard or kneeing them in the gut that that turned me on vs a choke or arm bar. The head coach/kru was named Mike Parker and he was fantastic. I was told he is now one of the top ranked MT trainers in the country and I don't doubt it a bit. He still teaches somewhere on the north side of OKC and would highly recommend it if wanting to learn a striking art. You also might consider an MMA gym like American top team. It gives you a chance to sample many different MAs and eventually you might find one you enjoy more than the other. Its exactly what I did and don't regret it. [/QUOTE]
