    To best answer your question, I'll have to ask what city or cities are you going to be volunteering in? Whatever city you're going to be working out of, all we'll have to do is scan the map for the nearest Moon and/or Hotbox is to your location.

    If you have been getting enjoyment out of the rare times it sounds like you're training no gi, you're going to absolutely LOVE training with us no gi jiu jitsu junkies. We promise never to make you wear those combat pajamas over here at the 10P Miami Hotbox.

    Sounds great. Keep us posted. Hopefully you'll be near enough to a Moon or Hotbox to train at least once a week.

    Feel free to come and train in Liverpool when you get back. Next Generation is one of the best no-gi focused schools in the country! I don't think there are any other no-gi Black Belts in the UK. Also, I'm 10th Planet since 2008

    Enjoy Camp America man!

    We have a 21 year old kid from South Africa who showed up one day at 10th Planet Riverside.
    He had never practiced any sports other than just a little bit of grappling in S.A. that he said
    wasn't a good experience. He was weak and couldn't chew bubble gum and walk at the same
    time. He started training with us 6 days a week two times a day and the
    next thing I know he got really good and was awarded his blue belt in record time. Come to 10th
    Planet Riverside, California. Tyler St. Riverside, California Learn from Sean Bollinger, Jeremy
    Jiu-Jitsu Fields, Slick Rick Marshall and learn leg locks from me.
