Hey guys,
Received this message from a guy at Imperial interested in starting a BJJ club, this had been a possibility that some of us at the club had considered previously but did not carry it out due to various circumstances.
If any of you are interested in taking part in creating a new club at imperial or know anyone at uni who might be interested contact Joshua directly. This could be a very good opportunity not only to set up the club, but also get world-class instructors from the Gracie Gyms to up your ne-waza game considerably.
Hope the holidays are going well for you guys, hope to see some of you soon,
Guillermo

Subject: Setting up of a BJJ Society
Hey,
I don’t current train Judo - I am however training brazillian jiu jitsu down at Gracie Barra Fulham - in particular I train often with Johannes - He says he trains with some of you guys as well as mentioning you have a couple of brazillian jiu jitsu guys in your club.
I was thinking about trying to set up a society for BJJ. I was wondering what you thought? or if you could see if anyone in your club is interested.
Ill be honest I have no idea how setting up a society works, but I’ve seen the form and need a couple of additional members to get started.
The idea would be to pay a membership (minimal) and then potentially a per class fee to bring one of the instructors from GBFulham onto campus to do a session. We have a few World class guys. As well as with the connections we have - Im sure we could run some special one off seminars with high profile visiting athletes, or I could see if I could get discounts / special deals for people joining GBFulham / the seminars they run.
I put a request to join the Facbeook group - I was wondering if it would be okay for me to post a similar message on there?
Ill probably message the union people so I can personally get more info about setting up a club
Cheers
Josh
