New meat :)

Hello all,

As my name suggest, my name is Mark and I come to you from Southern California.

I have studied several types of martial arts. My main focuses have been Judo(2years), Kempo(3years), and BJJ(3years).

I have competed in quite a few traditional tournaments and have done fairly well. Most of my success' come from BJJ tournaments however, as that seems to be my best art so far.

I have since moved on to compete in no holds barred pankration fights (only no strikes to the head--all else goes). My record there is 3-1.

Martial arts are my passion and hobby and I've recently created a website centered around this passion. It is currently functional, but I am always updating it and adding new content. Please feel free to check it out.

Southern California Martial Arts Information

Thank you, and i look forward to communicating with you all.

Mark

Welcome Mark!

What belt are you in BJJ and where are you training, if you don't mind me asking?

Yeah, I've actually "met" him twice, but I'll guarantee he doesn't remember.


As for my belt rank, I'm currently a two-striped blue belt. I train at Cleber Jiu-Jitsu.

Heres a somewhat recent photo from a training session with Royler Gracie and Cleber. I apologize for my appearance, although I had just gotten my a$$ kicked for 2 hours.



This photo was about 2 years ago or so, but I still get a kick out of the dude's face when they raised my hand.

Welcome. Nice pics. I am still a no stripe white belt but have only been training for a little over 2 months now.

John,

Very nice. Cleber is an outstanding BJJ player, you can't go wrong training there.

The look of despair on your opponents face in that one picture is perfect!
