Hey everyone. I live down in San Diego and train here. Just wondering your take on supplementing my training with what I can from these techniques over the age of 40. There really isnt a 10th Planet too close to me and I love training with Fabio Santos. But, I also have an incredible amount of respect for what Eddie Bravo has done for this amazing sport and know I can gain so much from it. Thanks again. Respect.
I started bjj when I was 32 and I just turned 47. I started 10p when I Was 42. You can do it? Look up Richie and Geo Martinez they are crazy good 10p guys in the San Diego area
Thanks a lot. I'll check them out for sure.
Do it mate. It's not just about the awesome training 10p offers it's an awesome community too!
I agree. All of the 10th planet people I've had the chance to meet have been so welcoming. And I think that comes from the source and Eddie's attitude. I cannot explain how impressed I've been by his humility and attitude about expanding jiu jitsu. I think I've found where Richie Martinez teaches. Gonna try and find out when he teaches and check it out this week. Thanks for all of the info and I look forward to learning more here and training with you guys in the future. Respect!
10th Planet San Diego is coming on January 3rd, 2015 at San Diego Combat Academy, on Mission Gorge Road. Boogey will be running it.
I just turned 40 2 months ago. Staying on the mats as much as possible keeps me young....ish.
Ok, cool. Good to hear. I'll look for it on mission gorge. That's right down the street from where I am now.
Welcome man. Geo Martinez teaches at Spartan Elite in Oceanside, not sure of his schedule though. Richie Martines teaches at San Diego Combat Academy at 6 am monday through friday, and Monday Wednesday at 8 pm and friday at 7pm at San Diego Combat Academy in Convoy (where I train.) Alternatively, Walel Watson teaches the 10th Planet system at San Diego Combat Academy (both locations) as well.
Carlos,
Thanks, man. I was looking at their site and it looks like they have a good amount of classes to take. Mission Gorge is way closer to me. I see they have no gi M,W,F. Will all of them be by a 10th Planet instructor? Thanks again for the info.
Hey man. Walel Watson is the instructor at mission gorge. He is 10th Planet Brownbelt under Eddie Bravo.Quote:

Good for you! I can't even explain how much I'm getting out of the last few classes I've had with Walel. Really looking forward to the seminar with Eddie in January when it becomes the official 10th Planet San Diego and all of the class times they will have at this location.
44 in a couple months.
stick with it bro! I'm 47 and still compete in MMA and still teach, roll and compete in JJ until the day I die! 10p4L!
I started with a Fabio black belt in my 40's. Santos is excellent but expanding your game is by no means disrespect. In two weeks I'm 51 and beginning to think limits are a myth. That or I've been choked out too often :) I'm not aware of a moon head in the organization older than me or any reason to slow down soon I guess I won't :) you shouldn't either.
I agree. I'm loving training with 10th Planet San Diego. Awesome that you are still training hard and goin strong. If I head over to Yuma I'll look you guys up for sure. Hope you can get over here sometime to train, as well.Quote:
