If you plan on going to knuckle up to get in shape, that's fine, great place to go. However, if you plan on competing, it's not the place to be. I've attended classes at knuckle up and alliance, and i stuck with the obvious choice for competition. Depends what your goals are.
    I only said that because you claimed Rolls invented BJJ, but he trained under Helio (his uncle).

    I haven't trained at alliance, but I've heard good things.
    I thrive on caffineand HATE

    ah. yea i knew that. but rolls is really the guy who spiraled it and invented the majority of moves. Helio took it from it's ancestral form and made it a little brazillian.. rolls completed the transformation :P. Jacare is considered his only equal on the mat.
