Are we related?
Depends. Which area will you be in? Houston is really big and being on one side can sometimes mean that it will take one or two hours to get to the other side.
Lots of good gyms all over.
Johnny Hooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
Similar question. New to the game & would like any recommendations for a good place to commit to in Austin, TX. Any help appreciated! Big fan of Eddie.
Whether you are into gi or no gi you are going to build a great base at any one of these places.Quote:

Vandry Jiu jitsu (http://www.austinbjj.com/) Apparently the guy is big dude and a leglock master and I have heard his name thrown around alot down here...don't know much of him than he is a BB under Carlos Machado.

Good luck. Best thing is to drop by each and try a class or prioritize by location and feasibility.
Another place I just found, but have no idea about is CTC.

Thanks for the info. Those are the three I saw on the internet. Gracie is close to the house, so it might be the most feasible. Is there a preference of Gi vs. no Gi?
Cool thanks for the suggestions!Quote:
