Gold that is!!!
someone want to update me on the list of OFFICIAL HotBoxes? I'll update the map now :) sounds like we have Miami, Orlando and England (Essex)...is that it?
Miami and Orlando are the only offical Hotboxes as of right now. Just waiting for Bobby to get his stuff, location and facebook page up and running. Check out the criteria thread I have a post that has offical listing in it.
Nope not yet, still need some criteria from them.
Got the 10th Planet Mobile Hotbox facebook page up. I'll update more information in the future but got a basic premise down. Take a look and make sure it's up to par.

5 matches on tape.correct. So,if I hit lutador in Atlanta for 4 divisions (including 1-2) gi and the rest nogi, will that count?
Can a sponsor have 2 hotbox leaders training? The gyms would be app. 2 hours apart (Knoxville and Sweetwater, Tn. I haven't spoken with Jon Helton yet but but I think he's the closest (6hour travel).
can u start a hotbox even if they have a gym in your town?
No. Secondly you would be at that gym if you really wanted to progress in bjj.
I'm interested in starting a hotbox, but I don't believe there is any 10th planet affiliate within a few hundred miles...
I would like to have a 10th planet jiu-jitsu here in Romania...there are a few BJJ clubs here but no 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu and the BJJ thing is really growing and growing...
What do you mean? is there any affiliates of 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu in Romania ? I would really like to know about it .....
Yes indeed but what I must do for that?
i want to get a hotbox started in Northern Virginia but i don't know anyone who wants to do 10pjj. i can't go to a gracie gym and ask those guys. i'm gonna ask the guys that do jiu jitsu at george mason university, hopefully they will be open to the revolution. i need to do my 5 competitions but i need more training partners!!!
Obviously, being able to represent 10PJJ is a benefit of starting an official hotbox but is there a thread or something that can tell me if there's any other perks? Not being greedy or anything, just curious. And does the hotbox get to design their own patches or are the hotbox patches basically the same? Miami's design looks cool as shit. haha. And where did the ranking thread go? I didn't see it last time I looked. Damn........I feel like I'm nagging.
Jay Chow designed our logo. He is the 10th Planet design guru. As far as perks, its a ton of work. The perk for me is that I will become a moon and I get to represent the 10th Planet system. It all for tha love and nothing else. If you have the love for the system do your thang if not please dont open a hotbox. If you do it for any other reason you will probably fail.
Definitely, definitely. I just wish that I could roll with more 10th Planet enthusiasts, or hell any BJJ enthusiasts, more often. Not many within a 40 miles radius and most of em have work schedule issues with training. I'm gonna try to make time to go to Charlotte and roll with Jon's guys sometime soon. Last year, we had 15-20 guys meeting up and rolling twice a week but college, work, and gas money issues has cut us down to around 5 since August, which has become lame. I've always rolled for love of it. Thanks for the insight.
I'd love to get something started in Northwest Ohio..
the problem i'm having is finding space to roll with strangers, i don't want everyone on this site coming to my house to roll.
since we can't profit off the hotbox, it's hard to pay for space out of my pocket. i'd love to roll with random people i meet on this site but it's hard to find free space to roll at. how do you guys do it? did you get a hookup and someone lets you use their mats and space for free?
We started in a living room. We met a local gym owner through one of our guys, he came to a tourney we were in liked what he saw and offered us Saturdays at his gym. That was in June now we have Tue & Thurs, Fri, Sat, & Sun. As far as paying for it he has a drop in fee or join the gym and you get all his classes in addition to the 10th classes. Hope this helps ya.
HELLO EVERYONE! My name is Nathan Cybulkiewicz. I currently have a trainning place in Barranquilla Colombia where i teach 10thplanetjj. I meet all the requriments to have a hot box. I train under Louis Ho(Montreal 10thplanet). The only thing that im missing is one extra competition video poppin the sign after kicking some ass. I will fullfill this on october 14 when i win the intermediate jj nationals of Colombia. Just wanted to let you know i exist and down with the sistem and i love Eddie Bravo jaja
Guys i want to introduce Nathan on a more personal level. Between september 1st and 5th Nathan flew me to Columbia to learn some new techniques and show me what he has created. Nathan has a hotbox in his hometown that was very impressive. He has a great group of young guys who train hard with him. Once he submits his last competition video i will be releasing a video of my experience with him. It was one of the best times of my life. Thank you Nathan. Your a true Nibiru Warrior.
When I first started, I bought 12*12 in puzzle mats a school had lie'n around for 220$ and kept them in the back of my truck at all times. We would go to public parks with covered pavilians and train for hours. Cops dont care when they find out whats goin down. We ended up trainin at a university, a spot we call Mt. Olympus.
Me and a friend also converted his shed into a badass fight gym for under 350$. Only problem is its in the boondocks of the bayou and hard to get others out there. Dont really need em though..
The hard part is recruiting. All you need is one other friend who is DOWN and it can happen. Im so glad I started outside the parameters of a traditional school now. My thinking is permenantly unboxed.
This is my goal.
10th planet, Memphis Hotbox. It's going to happen. :)
bobby and brandon, thanks for the info...still trying to keep the dream alive, i'll figure out something.
The dream will live! Nova Ronin will have a home soon!
Just ordered my 10th Planet rashguard. I have been studying the system for some time through the books and videos available. Now that I have decided I don't want to pursue MMA professionally I am dedicating more time to jiu jitsu. My goal is to start a Gainesville Hotbox.
