I live in Southwestern Michigan 1.5 hours from Chicago, 1.5 hours from Grand Rapids, MI, and 30 minutes from South Bend, IN. There is a huge MMA following here, and an array of gyms. In my town there are a couple of MMA gyms run by local celebs, but they are more focused on their own MMA careers to teach anyone else. I've looked at many other systems, but when I saw 10th planet I knew I found where I wanted my black belt to come from, I was all-in. I don't mind driving a little to get to a 10th Planet affiliate, but 1.5 hours at least 5 days a week is a bit far for me. Any plans for SW MI, or South Bend, IN?
