i like how submissions 101 responds to ppls' comments. def going to eddie's seminars soon. training under alan baker and pedro sauer currently but need some twister and rubber guard instruction.

[Submissions101]

You are very lucky to be training under Pedro Sauer. He is VERY good and has done a lot for the JJ community!

roll on!

cheers

Sub 101

No offense man, but Its kinda funny how Machado wasnt flexible, yet he's Bravos superior, Im givin Bravo the master of bullshido award.

[Submissions101]

Your argument does not follow.Eddie is talking about JJ Machado's flexibility not his skill set. I know of MANY students that are more flexible than their teachers.

[nouhenterprise]

yup thats true, nothing strange about that!, man i gotta tell you i love eddie bravo such a cool guy and a very smart jui jitsu guy, i love his stuff, learned alot from it, i do mma but i kill my self in jiujitsu working on flexibility and and my ground work, like 3 sessions each week 3 hours each, i really hope to accelarate

[alliancejokerjitsu]

Eddie is an insperation, his 10th system dosnt need defending, it shines on its own. and its still in development. His music is one of a kind, if you look it up my bet is you will find something you like.

Thanks Ari, and thank you Eddie. Keep it up, you are spreading Jiu Jitsu like wildfire. Your a fucking arsonist.

[Jitsurass2]

man, I wish he would open one up in Jacksonville, FL. Right now I train under an erik paulson affiliate, but I would love to train under the 10th planet system. I have Mastering the Rubber Guard and Mastering the twister and have put a lot of time into working on it and putting it into my game. Love the innovative spirit. another great book is the X-Guard by Marcelo Garcia.

also a 10th planet in columbia missouri would be very successful there alot of college kids at mizzou that would kill for one near by. mizzou =30,000 students a little less than half guys

[TizWhatItis]

Jus joined a 10th planet that opened up in Springfield, MO. ecstatic bout it

[sk8terphil117]

Get one up in virginia brah

[BigSparky22]

if a 10th Planet opened up in Milwaukee I would move there, I live in Kansas City but if you want to be an MMA fighter, Duke Roufus is up there too, you would have the best of both worlds

[tookie36]

eddie and 10th planet are the shit

[Rodiarc]

if you're gonna have a school in idaho then you definitely gotta hook us up here in wisconsin. like Appleton or Green Bay or Milwaukee or something.

[nvbasilio]

Eddie is brutally honest and a brilliant man !
