MMA in PA

Here's an e-mail I received from Brad Souders on Wednesday. Souders, as you may have read here, is planning to open up an MMA school in York.

Last night I got the go-ahead e-mail from Rogerio "Tatu" Taborda to join his assiocation and affiliate my jiu-jitsu with him. Over the past couple months I have gone to Scranton several times; I am headed there this Saturday as well, and have become very good friends with him and his family.

So my plan is for George (McGinnis) and I to run our school in York and once a week drive to Scranton and train with Tatu. And also have him down to York to train with the newer students as well. One thing I really enjoy about him is he is 129 pounds but he makes sure each training session he rolls with all the belt colors.

On Dec. 12th I will be in York (at Gold's Gym North) to do a mini-seminar on sweeps and we are going to shoot some video and such for our site. I will try to come with some fancy stuff to put up that you guys should get a kick out of, plus I will have Grand Master Grove to come shoot a commerical for us in the near future.

Let me know whats going on with everyone else and how things are running. Anyone on this list is free to come train at my school anytime and i will let you guys know when I plan on having Tatu down for a seminar. Also I am planning on traveling to Delaware in the near future to train with 7x World Champion Robson Moura if anyone is interested in a trip.
