Looking for a training partner in Virginia Beach, VA

eXcessiveForce · 12-15-2002, 06:26 PM

I just moved to virginia about two years ago and have been looking for a place to train, but haven't had much luck. Is there anyone else out here that is looking for someone to train with, or knows of a group out here that is worth talking to.

thanks

Yeah, he has a school here, but apparently he is selling it and going to work for someone as a personal body gaurd.

I have spoken with him but i was not really very thrilled with the format he is now teaching. first 3 years is Muay Thai then you get to work on trapping. And they don't spar.

For 120 bucks a month and no sparring I just didn't see it helping me much.

that's why I was hoping there was somebody on here that might be looking for somebody to train with.

Xforce.

Hey, one of Bruce Lee's senior classmates has a school on your side of the water. His name is Sifu Duncan Lee. I can get more info on him if you can not find him. Also, I don't know how far you are from Newport News, but There is also another Wing Chun School run by Sifu Tony Massengill. I know that it is not JKD but it is something. I am from the Va beach/ Hampton roads area and know quite a bit of the MA comunity. If it has to be a JKD school, or practitioner, then I may be able to find one for you. If not give the Wing Chun schools a try, or stop by my Hapkido Dojang sometime. www.hapkidokarate.com
Good luck.
