I'm sure this has been posted before but finding it using the search has been nothing but annoying.

I'm moving to the Yongin area outside of Seoul and I'm looking for any Brazilian Jiu Jitsu,Jiu jitsu or Judo schools or clubs in the area. Any help pointing me in the right direction on this would be great.

Thanks

There is a Brazilian Jiujitsu school up near Idae, and also one in Apgujeong. I can get you contact info for the Idae one because my friend goes there. PM me if you are interested.

John Frankl is the founder of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in Korea. John trained another eight years with Roberto Maia, founder of Boston Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, an original Gracie Barra black belt under Carlos Gracie, Jr., and the cousin of Renzo Gracie and the Machado Brothers. Under Roberto, John received his purple, brown, and black belts. In Boston, he studied and taught at the Gracie Barra Academy, Boston Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. He served not only as a Jiu Jitsu instructor but also as head instructor and coach of the Vale Tudo team. He also competed in and won both Sport Jiu Jitsu and Mixed Martial Arts contests. John is also certified as a Full Instructor with the Straighblast Gym International and serves as their Regional Director for East Asia.

Yong In University has the most famous judo program in Korea, and probably the second best in the world.
