I went along to an intro session at the Linwood club on a thursday about 6 months ago. Near the beginning of the evening the black belt instructor demonstrated a wrist lock/ submission hold on me. He described it as "like slamming a drink onto a bar". Stupid me I allowed him to do this. The following day I realised I had a problem and 1 ACC claim later... I don't know if it's a torn ligament to my thumb or a scaphoid break maybe but it's pretty inconvenient to say the least. So I don't know if I could recommend this club. Certainly the techniques are effective especially when some unsuspecting person stands there and allows you to perform them.
Great club with some of the best and most experienced instructors in the country. Regular training options.
