| I saw a post before coming out here ( I could not find it in the search) where someone mentioned a gym for training in MMA. Does anyone know where one might be? As soon as I get settled in I want to join. |

There are tons of places to train MMA in Seoul.
Korean Top Team is near where I live in Children Grand's Park and I plan to start training there once my shoulder heals from Judo.
KTT has great wrestlers from what I have heard (never been there)
In Suyu there is MARC. The owner speaks English well enough to answer your questions. He is a Brasa Brown belt in BJJ and was a kickboxer before learn BJJ.
You could study BJJ with John Frankl, the only black belt in Korea (although Steve is coming pretty close to getting a black belt). A lot of his students do MMA although you might want to cross train your BJJ with either Muay Thai or boxing. |

Thankyou, actually that's exactly what I want to do. I've learned a little Muay Thai while in Thailand, I would like to take that up again and also learn Bjj. I'm new to this country so I'm going to have to find out where Children Grand's Park is. |
