LOL I will let you decide. However I would like to add that I purpose that running into a brick wall will hurt more then running into a wall of pillows. Jus sayin. But landing precise kicks is pretty damn hard and in most striking simply not a well executed amateur move.

Not to mention there’s guys like me who train for HOURS AND HOURS to instinctually catch and strike someone who kicks from the torso up. I haven’t seen anyone yet who can kick above the leg convincingly on the fly.

edit: soccer kicks when a guy is down are mad gay lame ☹

I’ve been interested in Krav Maga for a while now. I don’t have much experience fighting but I did wrestle in high school. Apart from the defensive tactics I learned at work, I would like to incorporate Krav Maga as well. I heard The Training Edge is the only place in town? Seems pretty expensive. Any alternatives?

So Buffalo Training Center is $65 a month, for how many days a week do you get to train?

There’s a place at main and transit that does Krav… is that the training edge? I remember the rates were reasonable.

There’s also one in lockport. Man there’s a lot of MMA gyms now, just a matter of time before MMA is legal in NY. Can’t wait to see the new competition coming from all these gyms.

That article is super bias… The gym I go to (BTC in clarence) has a huge open mat, tons of bags, a full cage, and a workout area. 8 coaches training us in BJJ, no Gi JJ, Wrestling, flexibility, endurance and strength, striking, MMA tactics. I dunno about pilates being necessary…

Whatever gym you go to though, make sure the coaches have legit credentials. At the very least, 2-3 professional matches for MMA teachers, and a few high tier BJJ tournaments for your BJJ coach.
