mmm well to be honest with you I think it will be pretty hard to find a person in this forum that lives in Hilo and even harder to find a person that also trains with BJ Penn.

a buddy of mine trained there while on vacay. He says BJ isn't the head instructor there, if I remember correctly. I honestly wouldn't train with BJ from what I've seen from his "attitude" (meaning his personality more than his attitude) but training in such an awesome enviroment such as Hawaii would be epic!

My title was wrong, I don't meant someone that necessarily trains WITH BJ, just at his gym, so my fault.

yeah you definately want to go to a place that cleans its matts regularly throughout the day cause they're a great way to get some shit that you definately dont want... like staph infections
