Danny Mullen was recently asked on the PKA podcast whether he was still training Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. His answer was that he wasn’t really training right now due to being busy. However, he had signed up to Eddie Bravo’s 10th Planet gym fairly recently. When asked about his training, this was his response:
“I signed up at Eddie Bravo’s gym at downtown LA…it’s expensive, I think it was $170 bucks a month. They’re really regimented there in a way which is probably good for the students. I think you have to memorize their system and drill their system for 3 months before they let you do any live rolling which if anyone listening trains Jiu Jitsu, they probably know the most fun part of that martial art is live rolling. So, I imagine they lose a lot of students making them do that but they probably are really good once they’re ready to roll.”
This is not a surprising story as it’s well known that the 10th Planet system engages heavily on their specialized drilling and warm-up systems.
