Hello Friends

The interest of this blog is to report on and help connect the growing communities of BJJ/grappling/MMA practitioners in South East Asia. It is my hope that I can develop this blog to later become a full-website with interviews, reports and calendar of events/competitions.

Thanks,
Luke (Bangkok BJJ)
