Maybe he wanted me to spend more money, but he seemed quite knowledgeable about it.

Input.
Did you speak with Joel or Adam?

What they said is correct. MMA class is pretty much advanced/mma fighters in our gym that do it. Doing muay thai or bjj is equally as good.

Muay thai = defending yourself if you get caught in a rough spot.
Bjj = being able to know wtf to do if you get tackled (which usually happens when a bar brawl goes down)

I'm not saying you should learn it to go around and start shit but I'm sure there's been instances where we were close to it because of drunken idiots.

Come to Dynamic! We're like a big family
