The truth is the Israelis learn a lot of BJJ grappling for hand to hand shit.

I did find a Gracie school here in Vegas...I've been toying with joining.
I started taking JuiJitsu back in '92 but seperated my shoulder in a throw and just couldn't seem to get strength back to it to withstand falls etc.
There were numerous other guys getting injured during testing etc and I finally walked away from that class thinking to myself "how effective can I be at defending myself if I'm always injured?"
