Hey Eddie im a big fan of yours and your 10th Planet Jiu-Jitsu students, Im grateful for what you have done for the sport but my message is are you going to set up a location here in Miami, Florida? all we have is Gracie Barra (expensive as fuck) and American Top Team (decent instructors and price) and we have the rinky-dink BJJ gyms that are cheap but not reliable in Jiu Jitsu techniques....So Any ideas when your going to set up a 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu in Miami Florida? Thanks Eddie
-Chris
If you dont mind Matt if you can send me a message with the address, i wouldn't mind training there for a little bit but i hope someone establishes an Official 10th Planet BJJ gym.Quote:

Then renovate it with all new equipment, mats, Et cetera and get all the license permit dba insurance that you need to run a buisness. Then call up H.Q. and tell one of your purple or brown belts there going to have to relocate but not to worry because there is generous sallary waiting for them. And before you fly back to Cali hold a seminar for the grand opening and give me a blue belt at the end because even though we have never trained together im a big fan and ive seen all your youtube videos so im pretty sure I have all the moves down. Even though I haven't bothered to drop the $5 a month to become a paid member on your site to see your latest shit. O ya and you have to do all this with your own money and my word that there is a huge market for it even though you don't know me. One more thing can you charge half as much as Gracie Barra, Thank you.
What do you mean it doesn't work that way?!
Lmfao.....that's a award winning post....Quote:

There is no affiliate here either, didn't let it stop me. I know we would all love a 10p around the corner, but your gonna have to wait for those with initiative to do it for you. Jonathan busted your balls(LOL) cause these threads pop up all the time. Join a good school and the hotbox and make it work against good grapplers. The information to dismantle fools is here. Good luck
We have ourselves a winner!Quote:

I know Eddie is a busy guy so i just gave it a shot here to see if he would respond, but i guess you felt offended for some reason when i asked Eddie this question so you had to hop on this forums page and talk some shit..... http://s3.tinypic.com/2pzwjg6_th.jpgQuote:

Chris here is how it works: Eddie does not open schools anywhere. Instructors come to him and say I want to be an affiliate, and if they meet Eddies criteria then it becomes so. If not then I dont know what happens. But if you want to see it from Eddie, here is a copy of his post:

Eddie Bravo:

Me and my brother are actually part of the Miami HotBOX and would love for a new member to join us albeit its very new and we dont have enough matts for a group to live roll but were investing in some very soon so for now we just do strength and conditioning and drill taking turns on the matts we do have and also attend alot of open mats at various mma gyms located in the area so if you live in the Kendall area feel free to PM or neother HotBox member like Joey G whose house is where we train at for more info
The small but growing group of us in the Miami HotBOX are good peoples and we make sure to get in reps, then get in more reps, then finish off with a few more reps of whatever technique it is we're doing that day. Did I mention we focus on getting in reps?Quote:

that's a hot rear naked choke pic!!! LOVE IT!
Chris message me, AngelD, or Kiko we are alll part of the hotbox. Im getting paid tomorrow and spending most of that paycheck on mats so hopefully we can start rolling soon!
Don't get butt hurt dude I was mostly just fishing for a laugh and it worked. It wasn't all directed at you obviously the blue belt comment was just thrown in for laughs. But there was a serious point between the lines about how this question always comes up and if people just thought about it Eddie doesn't have the time to go around the country and the world for that matter setting up schools. He runs H.Q. works for the ufc does seminars and has his music and hes writing books!(hopefully finishing advanced rubber guard soon lol) IDK just seems like common since to me. There's a lot of work to opening and running a school and its not always as profitable as you might think a lot of the moon owners hold down day jobs. They do it because they love it.Quote:

FEDOR GOT CUT, CAUGHT IN A TRIANGLE BY A ADCC CHAMP AND BEAT BY A FUCKING GIANT. THATS NOTHING TO HOLD YOUR HEAD DOWN ABOUT. FUCK ALL YOU DANA LOVERS"
and this...
"Jiu jitsu since 96 and youre still a brown belt,,lol fucking loser,,SON"
My response was.....
"Your life must suck if you feel like you need to get on the internet and tell people fuck you. The mohawk I cut off 6 months ago had nothing to do with mma. I have never owned a tap out shirt and have been watching mma since the mid 90's and first started training in 2002. Who said What to make you think getting on here and telling people "Fuck all you Dana lovers" was justified? Because we have an opinion you dont agree with? You need to get a grip on reality dude! Your in "law enfocement"? Does that mean security gaurd? I Hope nobody would give you a badge and a gun."
so I'm a dick.
