I want to get back into Judo and have three places I can train at. Each of them are great and have their own benefits.
1. 5 minutes from Home. It is in a scout hall with an old and very experienced Sensei. Classes are very small and goes for 2 hours once a week. He teaches Judo, breakfalls and self defense (also a TKD and Aikido blackbelt, he crosstrained). Very cheap. Downside is the hall is dirty and quite shit to be honest, the mats are ones we have to put down and then pack up. I went twice a year ago but stopped due to Diabetes. Nice guys though.
2. 10 minutes drive from home. Twice a week but I can only attend the Monday night class due to Church commitments. It's 1.5 hours, very good teaching, classes are big and I went there in the past. I left quite suddenly due to illness and feel a bit guilty about that. Reasonable prized. Nice guys too. Also a strong team spirit and competition record. Downside is that I left and would have to go back feeling less than manly.
3. 30 minutes drive from home. Is once a week for an hour but is a part of the BJJ school there. Highly ranked BJJ school with links to the Novo Unio school in Brazil. If I went there, I have the option of doing BJJ too (The Judo class does mainly standing techniques place transitions due to the BJJ classes doing the ground focus). Can also do Boxing classes and Submission wrestling later. Downside, the distance, quite expensive and same Sensei as number 2.
What do I do?
